Do Skitterbots work with Infernal Legion Support?

Thanks in advance, much love.

What is the base radius for the Skitterbot shock/chill auras?

Radius of 30

Any chance this could be increased? Unless the Skitterbots actively try to get in melee range of enemies, 30 radius seems tiny.

How do mines interact with mortal conviction + blood magic? Can i reserve skitterbots and still use mines with these?

Thanks in advance, you're the hero of info!

While we're asking mine questions, I've got a few quick ones.

The wording in the patch notes for Curtain Call is a little vague - it could be interpreted as the 500 DEX and 500 INT lines having their stat requirements raised to 800, or having both of those mods replaced with a single new one that grants 1 mine for having either 800 INT or 800 DEX, but can only ever get you that 1 mine, even if you hit 800 in both categories. Which of these is accurate, if either?

Also, how are multiple mines thrown at once going to be located? Will it be similar to traps with Cluster Trap, where they're scattered within a range, traps with Multiple Traps where they're in a line, or something else?

Oh, and how does the game determine which order mines detonate in if you throw more than one simultaneously, e.g. with Curtain Call, Swift Assembly or Minefield?

Why penalise the BM miner archetype? Seems rather arbitrary that a required aura for miners is inaccessible via BM.

If I were to link Lightning Warp with High Impact Mine support (or the other one) while I have Trickster's Weave the Arcane ascendancy point, will there be a total reservation of 0, or will the reservation "transformation" override the node?

This is VERY important for my league start.

Thanks.

By that metric, will both mine and minion damage modifiers apply to the damage/aoe of Infernal Legion (supporting the skits)?

Appreciate your patience in clarifying things only I seem to be interested in.

Rory not related but elusive from assassin won't override with crits right.

Demolition Specialist states "100% increased Effect of Auras from Mines". Does above imply that this affects Skitterbot Auras as well (including shock effect?)?

When a mine uses a projectile attack and the projectiles Return(like on the new anointment notable), do the projectiles Return towards the mine or to the player?

The notable says "Return to you", but I'm not sure if the "you" in this case is a literal you or an all-encompassing term for "their source".

Will mines re-armed by tremor rod be placed at the end of the detonation sequence if they re-arm in time or will I have to detonate them again if they have been detonated once?

Does the area in which Pyroclast Mine's projectiles land scale with area of effect mods? Or does it only scale the explosion size?

Originally posted by Thezanlynxer

The range they can target enemies? Do they specifically aim at enemies like Rain of Arrows, or do you mean the mine detonation radius?

Further clarification for refeshing Elusive, Withering steps cooldown is 3 seconds, but "This skills cooldown does not recover during its effect"

Is that just the wither effect? the phasing effect? or the Elusive it grants.

And using a skill that ends its effect, does that cancel out Elusive as well? Or just the dmg buff and phasing.

Example, can one get elusive from Assassin ascendancy, 2 seconds it cast Withering step to keep max effectivnes, use a skill that removes the skills effect, start the cooldown, and then use it again after the 3 second cooldown?

Effectively allowing us to keep elusive up all of the time, with a 3 second refresh cooldown? as long as we use a skill as soon as we use elusive.

Hi Rory. Do corpses spawned or consumed by mines count towards Plaguebringer or Corpse Pact?

Originally posted by BloodBaneBoneBreaker

Thats great, so for clear-speed we are looking at a 3 second refresh cycle Without any increase to cool-down recovery speed.

Do we have a degradation chart at all, to see how fast it deteriorates at base?

And theoretically with a 20% Cool-down recovery speed belt, plus 15% on boots, we could get it down to 2.05 seconds? Or is that effected by this mod?

Can we have a clarification, can different projectiles from a single mine shotgun on single mob with big hitbox or not?

Originally posted by thefailtrain08

Quick extra question: do the auras from mines disappear once they detonate, or do they persist until the chain is finished?

Originally posted by and_i_mean_it

Charged Mines Support and the Blast Cascade node have:

"30% chance to gain a Power Charge when a Mine from Supported Skills is Detonated targeting an enemy"

Does that work with skills which the old Remote Mine Support would not auto-target, such as Firestorm and Bladefall? Or did that behavior change with the reworked Blastchain Mine Support?
