It doesn’t matter, if you bind a conviction demon it now rolls to one of the current bind demon auras instead

If this change stays there is no way to have a conviction demon regardless of skill point level/skill distribution


how can it if you dont have that bonus?

Because that’s the patch note change

But idk, I guess in theory you could grab conviction off a random champ pack since that doesn’t require 20 hard points but I’m not sure

we need to know if at 15 hard points, and not going over 19 with soft points they keep aura.

it always overwrote if over 20

edit: damage is barely able to clear p1 currently though


Going to respec and try again at 15 on a random unique. Won't be Heph because 20 is now needed for super unique. Will update once I find one.


WHOEVER DIDN'T ADD A CTA TO THE TEST BUILD IS AN ASS.

I guess you could in theory bind a lower level champ with conviction so the level 20 aura doesn’t override?

Although currently on non ptr my lvl 20 demon doesn’t override to begin with so idk.


seems like it, but now demon has been gutted... like i said in a previous post p8 heph was losing good chunk of h/p just from few grotesques, some rando champ is gonna be tore apart

Gonna try the same, although it seems pointless as it would be a weak conviction and would probably die since they’re not as tanky

in theory, would be completely possible to increase eldritch skill damage without raising bind passed 19

fort can still be made in armor, and theset book is 2 eldritch

Just binded Conviction Heph, rolled Fanatacism after success. No Conviction boys and girls.


Got cursed Heph going, definitely feels like higher than 5% ctc Amp so far. Never mind, further testing is definitely feeling like 5%.


well gg warlock, LMAO. there goes fire warlock in early ladder.
