Tarke was referring to supportability, which is a separate concept from tags. Specifically, that Burning Arrow is supportable by Less Duration support (because it has to be due to the threshold gem). None of that has anything to do with tags.

He had (and still has) a valid point that it's a weird situation with regard to supportability because of the threshold jewel, but tags have nothing to do with that, and at no time have such interactions been able to modify the tags on a gem. That simply isn't and never has been possible.

Question here, Mark maker of skills

Why cant non-following minions work with convocation? why arent all minions working with convocation?

i mean it would be nice and there doesnt seem to be a balance nor logic reason to prevent non-following minions to work with convocation, quite the opposite, they should be the ones targeted by that skill since they dont follow you so you would have to force them to follow you

Non-following minions are nonfollowing specifcally because you're not supposed to be able to bring them with you. Convocation isn't an exception to that, it's a tool to make following things able to follow you even if you move faster or do things like teleport around that make it difficult for them to follow you on foot.

Hey mark, i apologize for offtopic, but wanted to ask a mechanical question about wild strike since the treshold jewels for elemental hit will now apply to it. From how i understood the cold portion of the skill is considered cold, projectile and attack. The gem itself says "chains 7 times", does this chaining effect apply to the ice portion aswell for the purpose of deadeyes richochet node (10% more dmg per remaining chain) ? same question with the helm enchant + global additional chains

The stat currently does this, but a patch very shortly after release will correctly set the stat to being chains for the lightning variation of the skill only.
