PoE2 - Blood Mage "Gore Spike" Does Nothing
|
As in title... The ascendency node for blood mage "Gore Spike" does nothing.
Currently it gains and increase of 0% crit damage per 40hp. Last bumped on Jan 27, 2025, 3:09:23 AM

Yes, it is true. This ascendancy is bugged and sucks, needs a full rework. The first node "sanguimancy" is TERRIBLE, you are obligated to pick "vitality syphon" to even the score and gore spike is bugged. Please GGG, balance this ascendancy, the concept is very cool, but in the moment is the worst ascendancy by far in the game.

" Well, it's just a node that is more balanced towards lategame, if you take it in campaign where u dont have crit, it sucks, but in maps I run with 2x my health 85% of the time. So often in fact, that I respeced leech because it was just sitting there doing nothing. Gore Spike on the other hand just straight up doesn't work.

oh well, blood mage is such a mess and nothing works, first spell life steal didn't work, gore spike gives absolute zero damage and overall it's not all that good with the remnants and the double cost of life and mana. Please rework this mess asap. Just some values and fixes should do it.

still not working. Crit dmg bonus is basically half the reason you would even choose the blood mage ascendancy. 10 hrs in on my blood mage and am questioning my life choices

There was a staff reply on the topic in another thread about Gore Spike not working. According to them, it's only a UI issue--the increased Critical Damage Bonus is applying to your damage, it just isn't showing in the skill gem menu. |

Can confirm, Gore Spike does absolutely nothing. Bummer.
