Remote Mine targeting on Magma Orb is dysfunctional
Hi,
A picture is worth a thousand words: https://imgur.com/a/LnxDu09 As I understand it, the way that Remote mine targeting currently works with Magma Orb is that the mine will only look if it can hit an enemy on the first bounce. If it cannot find one for that first bounce, it will fire in a random direction. This leads to a very limited "targeting radius", around ~25yards I think, especially when Magma Orb is supported with slower projectile, a very common support gem for this skill. This makes Magma Orb pretty much un-usable with mines due to the very limited range. Magma Orb is a wonderful skill to play otherwise, and mechanically very interesting. I wish exiles would be able to play with it with mines, or traps. Would it be possible to change the remote mine targeting mechanism? Here is a few potential mechanism, any of which would be great: -Mine looks for the closest enemy, and fires in that direction (same as ball lightning mine targeting works) -Mine looks for an enemy it can hit with the 1st bounce. If it cannot find one, then look for an enemy it can hit with 2nd bounce. Repeat until bounce max bounce X.
