Will it be shocked by skitterbots?

Will it be hit by Orb of Storms or Arc?

Will it consume and attract chains from skills?

Will it consume/trigger pierces and forks?

Can you hit it with a skill like cyclone?

I'm sure there's other scenarios but I can't think straight right now. I currently assume the answers to this are no yes no no yes.

You can apply ailments to it as if the hydrosphere was damaged, though it never actually takes any damage.

During the brief time it's moving on cast, the timer is paused, but the pulse frequency timer isn't reset.

Just checked in on this and it has been fixed for the 3.13 launch.

Nothing was updated on the gems as it was a change to the minions, not the gems.

Add onto the list : How does Hydrosphere works with skills that Freeze and Shock? If I hit it with Glacial Hammer, but I have Shaper of Storms... will it be Frozen or Shocked (or both?). What if I'm using Hexblast?

Hydrosphere can be frozen and shocked simultaneously, at which point half of the damage will be converted to Cold, and half to Lightning.

Lots of questions regarding Hydrosphere:

  1. Does it work with totems? How about interacting with triggers?
  2. How does threshold for freeze/shock work? Do you always "freeze" the orb for three seconds (max) when you hit it?
  3. Other on hit effects, such as smashing the orb with Vigilant Strike or CoC proccing - does it work in any capacity?

Just to clarify -

  1. Yes, the totem or trigger effect will keep refreshing/repositioning/pulsing the sphere.
  2. The threshold is based on the gem level, so higher Hydrosphere gems require more powerful shocks to reach the minimum threshold. It's relatively easy to apply with a dedicated skill, but won't just proc off 2-3 added cold damage. Just like normal freezes, the harder you hit the longer the freeze, though Hydrosphere has an ailment duration multiplier on it so the freeze lasts much longer than normal freezes.
  3. The general rule is if an effect occurs on striking a breakable barrel, it'll occur on Hydrosphere.
