They're on the tree, you don't need to find them.

So Fireball + Arcanist brand + LMP without pierce will hit the branded enemy and then no one else, basically you need Pierce to use Fireball + Arcanist brand like in the videos. GGG is my logic correct?

Projectiles don't shotgun, so with the LMP in there, one of the fireballs will hit and explode on the branded enemy, the other two will be unable to collide with that enemy and will continue through to hit other things.

Pierce or chain are definitely good things to have for projectiles used this way, though.

With those changed to how brands work as well as brand recall that sounds like it's going to make brands feel so bad to play. Especially them not dropping at a monsters feet anymore.

I've really enjoyed them in the play testing I've done but it's worth trying them yourself to make up your own mind.

You have a small window to activate as many collectors as you'd like and then you aren't able to target anything when monsters are alive except the exit portal.

Will existing jewels in Standard be converted to giving the new Keystone or still give the old one?

They still have the old one but will only roll new possibilities when you use a Divine Orb

It's nice to see so many good-natured memes about Harvest.

You can still get Orbs of Delirium from Delirium content.
