Diablo 4 S6 PTR Thorns Necro Pit 78

[@anthonycampisi7880]

Thank you for the video. Can you please explain what the sticker thought aspect does. It mentions gain thorns while channeling, but it doesn't give exact details.

[@sinitarpku]

@@anthonycampisi7880 just as it says, when you channel and 3s afterwards, you gain thorns (value depending on aspect and item power). Early in the game the thorns value is quite substantial.

hello, what about thorn necro in S6? is it good?

[@sinitarpku]

In S6, an interesting change to thorns is the buff to Bone golem armor -> thorns conversion. After the taunt, 200% (up from 70%) of the the golem's armor will convert to thorns. Also the Mendeln change (unique effects scale with minion multipliers) can help a lot with minion auto attack damage (when you have an enemy that does not attack). And of course the Kalan's edict buff, cult leader buff, and some other minion related buffs will all play into the thorns build. In short, I did some premature math, that the golem thorns proc can be very good, with >1b per proc.

@@sinitarpku Any thoughts on putting together a S6 build with the new information/changes?

@@sinitarpku i saw they deleted thorn tempering from items... is it bad for us, or golem save us?

[@sinitarpku]

@@Siqq07 I think the minion thorns inheritance is still there, the specific minion type thorns inheritance got removed. With the armor conversion buff for the bone golem, I lean towards a golem thorns build without the Razorplate.

@@Wuginator322 Thinking about making a Golem thorns build that doesn't use the Razorplate. Minions in general got a deserved big buff.
