Apex of the Moment

Apex of the Moment:

Enemies in your Presence are Slowed by 20%.

Slow Effect (small ascendancy passive leading up to AotM):
Debuffs you inflict have 6% increased Slow Magnitude.

It is unclear if Apex of the Moment is a debuff since it doesn't indicate this in the description of the skill, nor does it display as a debuff on enemies in your presence. There are a number of notables on the tree (ex Chronomancy, Hindered Capabilities, etc) that reference increasing slow magnitude from debuffs you inflict. Again, intuitively these would impact Apex of the Moment but it is entirely unclear if they do.

Also, it would be great if we could see (or have an option to see) our Presence area. For instance, on Chayula Monk Into the Breach gives us an indicator of this modified area around our character related to this skill. This kind of indicator would be wonderful for Apex of the Moment and might also be useful for other Presence-based skills. A toggleable option would be awesome.

N.B. one of the great things about Into the Breach is that it doesnt really obscure ground effects. More visual clarity = more better

The notable doesn't work btw, that's why it's "unclear" if it's working, because it's currently not enabled in the game. There are a few bug reports/threads about this, but this isn't a priority.

Glad to see someone else experiencing this. If it's a bug, at least I know I'm not doing something wrong.

Curious how to tell if something is or isn't a high priority. Where do the devs communicate that?

They post it in this pinned thread https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3594260

Ahh ok thanks. I see where you're coming from now.

Yeah I wouldn't expect this to be a "high priority" as those are always going to be stuff that literately prevents people from playing the game.

These things can still be a priority, but this one more likely a "normal" at best since it is a pretty big point on one of the ascendancies.

As stated in that linked thread, anyone else experiencing the bug should be encouraged to comment about it if they have any more details.

It's also the fact that chrono isn't that popular, and it's a pretty buggy class; not only the slow aura doesn't work, but you can disable your temporal rift if you slot it another aura that has a higher cost than your leftover spirit, as shown in this thread https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3625046

I don't really expect fixes to chrono this month, and I wouldn't expect fixes to chrono in January either. Too many important things to fix first.

I don't expect anything. Just reporting it.

It's good that you've got your expectations managed though, whatever the personal rationale may be.
