Soul eater doesn't let vaal gems to gain charges
|
I don't know if it's intended or not, but if an enemy's death increases your soul eater stacks, you don't receive a vaal gem charge for the death of that enemy.
How to reproduce: use Soulthirst Cloth Belt, use an utility flask, kill a mob that is close enough to get a soul eater stack. You also deny vaal gem charges for other members of the party this way.  Last bumped on Dec 18, 2016, 5:47:49 AM

Things only have 1 soul. If something eats it, obviously your vaal gem can't have it.

Enemies with Soul Eater exhibit the same behaviour, while we're at it. :) It's intentional, as Mark pointed out.

So with multiple players, only one player gets the vaal gem soul?
And if two players have soul eater, only one of them can get the soul? Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:

If we count souls, why won't soul eaters release souls they store when they are no longer soul eaters? It feels like a case of overcomplicated mechanic that is detrimental to gameplay, like limited arrows or weapon durability in Diablo.
Anyway if it's intended, this thread belongs to suggestions. |

" If a soul isn't Eaten, every player gets one Vaal Gem soul charge. The player landing the killing blow can get additional Souls through Chill of Corruption and Sacrificial Harvest. This is of course done so Vaal Gems aren't a complete wash for regular party play. I have no idea how multiple Soul Eaters would interact. It's a very rare circumstance. I wouldn't be surprised if all Soul Eaters gain a Soul Eater stack, but it's similarly likely that only the closest SE benefits. Worth messing around with. " We count hamburgers too, but only before they are eaten :P |

" Cool, thanks for the info! " If you party with the same person a lot, you could definitely see how you could each make a build around it if it worked nicely. You certainly wouldn't want to do soul eater + vaal gems, for eg. Face it, all of your suggestions are worse than this idea:
