Beautiful Corpse

I can't get this to work at all. My character gets a permanent purple glow, but casting corpse consumers do absolutely nothing -- even when cast after summoner's armor.

Anybody have better luck?

    If you're trying to use the Tethers, the patch notes specifically say it doesn't work with the Tethers.

    Go figure.

    Just tried again... Made sure I had 5 pieces... My character had a permanent purple glow, which is weird. Cast Summoner's Armor, immediately followed by Life Amid Death. Nothing... No AOE HoT on the ground like I was expecting.

    I tried switching Summoner's Armor for Scythe, then Life Amid Death for Deaden Pain... Nada...

    Ah well...

    If its not going to let you tether yourself and have the effects travel with you kinda makes the set irrelevant I think at least

    Being unable to tether to yourself is listed as a known issue in the patch notes

    Which would be literally the only good use-case of the set.

    About the set not working at all, were you in combat while testing? The set doesnt work out of combat.
    Balanced by people with no prior gamedev experience, couldn't fix performance issues in a decade, can't code a real matchmaking algorithm to save their lives, more maintenance downtime than all the other MMOs put together, more bugs introduced than bugs fixed every big patch, same stagnant combat for years.

    I know this doesn't bring anything to the discussion, but what even is a beautiful corpse? Are we talking about a corpse all dressed up for her wedding, or what?

    Beautiful Corpse comes from the new absolutely trash-tier Necromancer Class Set.

    It's supposed to allow you to use yourself as a corpse (with a silly cooldown that defeats the entire purpose lol), but has some major functional issues.

    Bit of a meme phrase, originates from Dracula. Which all fans of fantasy should read.

    It works, though I only used the eat-corpses-for-ultimate ability. You get white fx all over you when you’ve proc’d it. The permanent purple glow is the fx from wearing the set, like how worms gives you blue orbs all the time. All the class sets have a glow like that.

    Took a short video to demonstrate what I mean.

    Attempt 1: Summoner's Armor -> Life Amid Death -> Nothing
    Attempt 2: Summoner's Armor -> Life Amid Death -> Nothing
    Attempt 3: Summoner's Armor Leaves Corpse -> Life Amid Death -> Ground HoT
    Attempt 4: Bone Totem -> Life Amid Death -> Nothing

    If I'm doing it wrong, please let me know.

    Pretty sure you have to be in combat for it to work.

    Thank you! Confirmed that that was it.

    Let me just say that this additional requirement makes the set far less desirable. If class sets are the main reward from Endless Archives, I just don't see the point -- at least for necromancers
