Banners just feel bad for current speed of game

The banner buffs are amazing and I enjoy the support roll they provide with the tactician, however the size and the fact that the buffs don't linger on teammates make them feel very underwhelming outside of bossing. Before anyone ask I have glory gain maxed out as well as area and I still find myself struggling to keep banners up as I am following others around. It would be really nice to have a way to pick up the banners even if its only 1 of them such as the movement speed banner. I don't quite understand the purpose of the speed buff for a stationary object sure you move fast in the area but you leave it quite quickly.

I would be fine with it disabling my attacks to move the banner and let me drop it again at a new location.

Banners are for bosses and you don't need them elsewhere. While the buffs are very strong, they are just not needed.

There are tons of issues with skills e.g. all herald skills are useless at bosses - but banners are great. Realistically you can't slot them together, either. I manually swap my herald skills to banners for some boss fights - cumbersome & boring, though


It'd be cool to have a passive skill point to have the banner move along with the caster. Alas. If you wish to play support, get a scepter... and rarity (and gravebinds). That's the state of the game.

What you are suggesting is just tedious, no need to make such sacrifices.

Made a hard pass on banners because I thought they'd just be a stationary object I need to keep replacing, while using a second resource.

Thx for proving me right.

Make zoom zoom game, add stationary non zoom zoom skills.*genius meme*

Banners need more options of passive nodes. Insane amounts of Glory use makes the game boring.

There is a reduced glory gem for few exalts (back then I bought two Daresso's Passion for 1ex), that makes them full on during boss fights. Again, they are just not useful for anything else.

Same as 80% other skills being not viable in "current game speed".
Game pacing is not matching the design currently. Probably as a result of early access and many things still copied from poe1. Hopefully this issue will be adressed in closest patches.

This lineage for glory use is a joke if someone wants to use it during map runs. But it helps good in Bosses fights.
