New Support Gem: Cast on Hit

This would be awesome.

However it would simply make everyone stack IAS and make items like Quill Rain horribly overpowered.

Maybe if the % to proc was directly related to the damage?

"When you get hit" support - i.e. 5% Chance to Cast Ice Nova when Struck.

I think this has very high potential.

I would like to see something like this that is directly correlated to melee. EG an ice nova support gem that procs on being hit. mana cost would be a reservation. can only proc once every x seconds (cool down) and can only attach to a melee gem.

Damn you Quill Rain!

I love the idea of cast on hit support. Getting BoTD back in the day and dat poison nova... one of the most satisfying things ever.

This would be a tough balance, but even if it was terrible I would still play it just because it would be incredibly fun.

In some ways it already exists. Blind, Chance to Flee and Knockback are all chance on hit support gems.

Could certainly be expanded on though.
