I've found some use on the bar with the unique gauntlets they do decent damage to pair with chain lightning or lightning spear. I am currently using it with my chain lightning build it will kill things on there own at pit tier 60-70 which is impressive but its a start to ramp the damage.
Interesting. I never had familiar on my bar but a fire familiar was triggered from frozen orb and lightning spear when they caused burning from firebolt enchantment.
winterglass and unstable currents both spawn familiar, most likely you had the 10% damage passive giving you the element of the last cast, but it won’t spawn only fire that way
Did you test if you were actually able to snapshot it into spawning only cold or lightning familiars, or did you accidently find out that it will only ever spawn fire familiars? :)
you get a full enchantment slot in return for that 10% damage buff. Also you can expect the damage reduction on the other passive to get buffed. A lot of builds could for example slot in an extra frozen orb enchant or an extra Teleport enchant or whatever, so it's actualyl quite significant.
its not gonna be viable. Conjurations are just complete trash the concept doesnt work out. But its still good support skill especially lifting pure frozen orb up by 6 conjurations is actually a huge boost to the build.

sure you could snapshot the other two, but they are very useless, so I dont see a reason to do that.
Does this still work atm. after all these hotfixes ?
yes works perfectly
each familiar proc the 10% bonus ?
if i summon 6 fire do i have 60% bonus dmg in this elem ? :O
no just 10%
so you give up the 10% dmg buff to replace firebolt enchant essentially...might be worth it but not worth the hassel imo

@@GoldfarmingGuide the snapshot is a bug. In no description it is supposed to work as it does now, so i aspect this to be fixed
@@colejohnny27 its not a bug. it says it alternates when you cast it, and since you dont cast it its actually intentional behavior
Does this work on console?
this is outdated video. Familiar now always casts as fire if not on bar through unstable currents or winterglass
@GoldfarmingGuide thanks! Built it and it's doing great so far
Sry, but fire bolt still remains the main way to get enemies burning… 2 reasons: there is no bug there and it applies with all skills you cast
its not a bug ;) its a snapshot pretty common concept. familiar snapshot is just much stronger and will replace firebolt in any endgame build.
i tried everything to make this a viable build. its just not able to be. unless the make a unique weapon similar to how lightning spear was treated.

Had a couple strangers in my life but never a familiar.
