Suggestion about Lightning Warp skill gem

Hello my bro/sis from GGG,

I am playing a build in PoE2 right now that using Lightning warp to target on Ball Lightning to generate Lightning Infusion.

But with the new patch, Lightning Warp can also be casted on enemy not under culling threshold. This feature make me sometimes target the enemy instead of Ball Lightning and can’t generate Lightning infusion.

Wonder if the dev can make some options for Lightning warp skill to target only Ball Lightning, target only enemy and target both.

So I think I can choose the option for Lightning Warp only target Ball Lightning, so Lightning Warp won’t debuff on enemy.

Thanks for reading.

It's an interesting idea. We could conceivably decouple BL+LW completely and add a support gem to make the system more flexible.

Personally, I hope they just kill the change until they can come up with a better design.

Orb Convergence Support

Supported spells can target Orbs, but can no longer target enemies. Culling an Orb consumes it.

That's still probably a big enough nerf to render the build unusable. It takes up a support and also eliminates the ability to actually cull an enemy.

I suppose it could be balanced further, e.g. at Support Level V, adds "gain 10% of elemental damage corresponding to the elemental type of the Orb."

It opens up interesting possibilities with Frost Bomb and Orb of Storms, too, and could be a really cool way to extend the Sorcerous interaction/combo base.
