Does horker need to kill herald to hork? Running around with nova and horker at same time… been teleporting horker into elites/champ packs… come rip with nova (still leveling Barb as well) and it seems to allow me to hork everything but with heralds I can’t seem to hork after killing with nova? Anyone experience this or am I just bad at the game?

This seems very weird.

So it'd mean you can hork Heralds only that YOU killed as a horker ?
Then you put herald to 1% HP or whatever and kill will horker last hit.
Almost changes nothing (except it does, indeed).

I think youre just bad at the game :bouncy:

Is Horker in town during kill?
On some occasions uniques bodies won’t be able to be popped if horker is in town.
Happens a lot with seal bosses. Not always but on occasion.

Does your merc have cold dmg like holy freeze aura or anything that could ice the bodies?

I was in split mg runs as barb and came to hork heralds in another act from other people. You can hork heralds. I did sometimes have the case that it didnt offer me the body and I don't know why. It despawns fast if you go to town. Happend to me once when I went to get bo sticks then the body was gone.

Nope I teleport my horker straight into packs… have side by side screens. Let horker tank come in and kill with Nova… have no problem horking that way. TBH it might be the holy freeze aura because I did forget about that.. I’ll probably switch to prayer.

I can’t say I know if heralds are like super uniques whose bodies don’t shatter. It could be

sometimes the body just can't be horked for some reason, seems to happen less when you're present for the whole fight
