Winters embrace line minor rework idea

fenn1539 · November 4

this is a simple one but i personally feel like either its gripping shards and artic wind abilites as well as its ult should be all made to scale with your resistances OR the artic wind and the ult should be made to scale with max health like gripping shards and it should get its passive that grants resistances for each slotted ability to instead be made to grant more max hp like the shadow line or the bone tyrant line.

Personally i instead think impaling shards should scale with max hp or weapon and spell damage and max resources so it's not a strict tank or dps option. As far as the morph choices go, a a tank's aoe root vs being able to use it as a dps and at range is kinda boring. So they could put more work into it by cutting the annoying destro staff requirement and baking it into some other base effect and allowing you to actually pick what effect you want with the morph

The issue with making damage skills scale with max hp and resistances is that you're getting free damage while also being tanky. Its weird but mostly fine on impaling shards but adding more could be problematic.

We also shouldn't be trying to force winters embrace skills to scale for only tanks or only dps considering many dps use arctic blast and winter's revenge, and some also use northern storm.
