- We are using Feeding Frenzy over Spell Echo as it is simply not working for them, and this buffs the rest of our minions vastly as well. Faster Projectile can be changed for Slower Projectile for higher damage output but will significantly hurt clear speed. Melee Skellies.
- Jan 24, 2020 So you need to have feeding frenzy supporting the skill, in order for the buff to apply to your minions while you have feeding frenzy on you? If the socket is not supported by feeding frenzy that buff is uselless on you? Or minions get the damage boost?
Feeding Frenzy Vs Minion Damage 2017
Feeding Frenzy Support Now gives minions from supported skills 25% chance to grant Feeding Frenzy to you on hit at gem level 1, up to 44% at gem level 20 (previously 25% at all gem levels). No longer causes minions from supported skills to deal more damage while you have Feeding Frenzy. if the minions won't deal more damage while have feeding frenzy, why do we need that skill? did they actually made the skill useless, or i got it wrong? thank you Last bumped on Mar 11, 2020, 1:37:27 PM | Posted by Ofirdr78 on Mar 11, 2020, 5:00:33 AM |
' Still the only way to get aggressive minion ai, which is how most minions should be by default. Basically they make minions a 5 link to get the proper ai. There's no powercreep here. Creep implies it's slow and could be overlooked, this is a full out sprint. | Posted by cpurdy777 on Mar 11, 2020, 5:03:42 AM |
They still get the movement speed and attack speed. Agree on the aggressive thing though, it's annoying to waste a gem slot on that. Maybe they should do away with the movement and attack speed, and change Feeding Frenzy buff to make minions aggressive. That way you dont need to waste a socket on every non-golem minion. | Posted by Asmosis on Mar 11, 2020, 5:07:10 AM |

Link FF to any Golem +Maim and you get the global benefit of Aggro and Attack Speed for all other minions. | Posted by ArisFuser on Mar 11, 2020, 7:03:17 AM |
' Only the bonus to supported minions got removed, that means the one Line on the gem that reads: (1) 'Minions from Supported Skills deal (5-14)% more Damage while you have Feeding Frenzy' Players will still get feeding frenzy buff which is a global effect that gives the following: (2) 'While you have the Feeding Frenzy buff, all of your minions have 10% more minion damage, 15% increased movement speed, 15% increased attack speed and 15% increased cast speed' So that means that if you used feeding frenzy as a support on your main damage skill you will be losing up to 14% more damage (at gem level 20) with that skill If you used feeding frenzy on a secondary minion (stone golem for example), you will still get the global bonus (2) on your main skill too Hope that clarified it for you Last edited by smichal52 on Mar 11, 2020, 12:34:29 PM | Posted by smichal52 on Mar 11, 2020, 12:31:11 PM |
Still a big nerf, together with the skeleton nerf. You need the agressive at skeletons to make them teleport. Otherwise clear speed is, ahm, a bit weak. | Posted by Llyrain on Mar 11, 2020, 12:48:06 PM |
' How do you mean.. 'weak' My highest level character last season was a Necromancer at level 95. The nerf feels very justified and warranted. You use FF on secondary minions anyway, so what issue do you take with that? Just link it to your Carrion Golem and slash away. Besides, minimum investment skellies dealing millions of damage was just OP. Try the new spectres if you are unhappy with skellies. Have some fun.

' Might be a bit of a hassle, but you could try a few tricks, like using feeding frenzy for clear, and swapping to DeathMark for tougher bosses Deathmark should be much better for both AI and Damage (for single target) than feeding frenzy was pre-nerf | Posted by smichal52 on Mar 11, 2020, 1:04:09 PM |
' Yes, we get so lazy that we lose sight of the fact that we should do more gem swapping between mob clearing and boss single targeting. 'You've got to grind, grind, grind at that grindstone...' Necessity may be the mother of invention, but poor QoP in PoE is the father of frustration.
