Are you Glacial Cascade yet?

I think you are underestimating the power of glacial cascade miner saboteurs here. The additional bursts serve as pretty much more aoe for them, and they are already able to offscreen stuff without major aoe investments in the tree.
This jewel will make things outright ridiculous. PvP is gonna be a nightmare... also, god save us if one of those guys ever gets exported as a grandmaster.

oh god yes please a level 90 GC Miner as Grandmaster! This would be the perfect Encounter to use the Cold Absorb shield!

It's only a little range boost and a 100% conversion help for those who can't afford the helm enchant, nothing that will change the skill power.

miners may take advantage of this more than any other class, but then miners are the issue, not GC by itself.

i planned a GC marauder for 3.1, and will only take the threshold jewel for levelling untill i get the helm enchant, it's not good enought to sacrifice 2 jewels slots. the skill looks strong, but nowhere near OP, and will be a lot weaker than my previous DP build.

Well my idea about this jewel is waste. Can be used and not, it is not a must for glacial cascade and mostly I feel it like a waste because there are so many underusing skills that need a jewel or a rework. I hope we will see many balance in 3.1

Not really a rumor if ggg showed us the jewel already.

"Because GGG made sure to buff this already absurdly OP skill even more." This is the rumor.

Haven't read the forums in the past 5 weeks and people started bitching about GC now that VP seems to be death? Wow.

As for the jewel, it looks nice for self cast builds. Having played the miner version thoroughly I'd rather stick to life and crit multi on my jewels.

tried a GC miner last league

super fun but felt to fragile for HC

Since obviously GGG didn't show us all the new uniques yet, maybe we can hope for more threshold jewels coming.

In before GC gets nerfed because all this fake hype getting created. And then followed by OP's next thread whining about how they nerfed one of his spells. Christ, a spell becomes half decent after being dead for forever and people instantly start whining.

Becomes half-decent? It's one of the strongest skills here. And one of the cheapest as well.

Now they make it even better with awesome threshold jewels when majority of other skills are still awful.

I am not sure what should I add to make you realise how off was your comment.
