Detonate Works on other Summoners pets

#1 Post by jedislight »

The Summoner talent Detonate is described as "Destroys one of your summons, ..." However the skill can be used on any summon including Summoner monster's summons.

Personally I like the feature and think its neat to have summoner battles with exploding pets everywhere. So, this is either a minor typo, or a talent that does not quite select valid targets correctly.

Vote for keeping, and trying to make AI use the skill that way, because it's kinda neat.

Pretty sure it's a real bug because 'your' doesn't look like a typo but an intentional decision which wasn't quite implemented properly.

HOWEVER if you really want to keep it, there really should be some kind of check/failure chance for using it on enemy summons.
Perhaps your mindpower vs the highest of the creature physical save and the enemy summoner's mind save?
