Raise Spectre: The first thing that really feels like EA.

I think like all of us I was really hyped.I had hundreds of new possibilities in mind and thought I could try out different ones in the new season.

But trying them out turned out to be quite expensive, especially at the beginning, when every Gem Drop is precious.

The first thing I did was get the Frost Mage from Act 1 from the graveyard.
A few others later.
Then the realisation: Spectre does nothing better than ‘boring’ standard Minion Gems. Quite the opposite! High Spirit costs, low damage, slow movement or poor AI.
It turns out that many Support Gems do nothing.
And if you go into the details of the gem, you get virtually zero information about whether the damage increases, the attack or cast speed becomes faster or something ‘improves’ in general. Of course, some support gems are quickly obvious, such as more projectiles.
But the absolute lack of traceability and the seemingly random functionality of support gems makes the whole thing an expensive and unsatisfactory affair.
It feels unfinished and poorly balanced and like it was rushed into the season update.
