[1.3.0] Tirakai's Maul unique gem damage conversion

#1 Post by Stuntofthelitter »

When Tirakai's Maul is gemmed with something of type: Unique (most unique gems except the Goedalath Rock) it gains Damage conversion: 25% lightning, 25% cold, 25% arcane, 25% fire. When re-gemmed it does not lose those conversions, and subsequent uses of unique gems stacks it up by an additional 25% each time.

EDIT: the Unique gem type also does not change the damtype, and it retains whichever damtype it had before.

Also, not bug related so much as relating to potential intended behavior. The 25%/25%/25%/25% elemental conversion makes it seem like it was meant to split the damage equally between those four types, but with the cascading way damage conversion actually happens you end up with something very different. To actually split it between those four types you'd need to have it be something like 25%/33.33%/50%/100%

EDIT: Set the conversions to 25 / (100/3) / 50 / 100

Tirakai's Maul is probably the buggiest item I've ever seen...

Isn't the Elemental Fury ring using the same conversion?

From what I remember of using it and reading the combat log, yes, but the ring doesn't specify the percentages. Maybe Tirakai's Maul should do the same when gemmed with a unique gem.

Has anyone tried using Tirakai's Maul for the whole game?
