aethereal Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 If you slot recharge reduction on Voltaic Sentinel, does it affect how fast the VS's own attacks recharge (ie, if you give it 100% recharge it fires twice as many bolts during its 1m lifespan), or does it just affect how fast the summon itself recharges (ie, useless, since it's perma out of the box)?

chi1701 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 My interpretation would be that it wont. Recharge reduction will only effect by reducing the recharge on the power it self so you can re-summon faster if your pet is defeated. I would think since the pet is target-able and can receive buffs, then recharge buffs should be applicable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Underfyre Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 It can buff itself with the Soulbound Allegiance - Build Up IO. Unless you're taking a pet from one of the Patron pools, you won't be putting that anywhere else anyway. May as well.

It only affects how quickly you can summon it (which, you're right, is useless). Recharge isn't passed onto any pets because it messes with the AI attack chains too much, from what I remember. Something about it ending up with them spamming their quickest recharging attack again and again and not using anything else? Damage procs etc do get passed onto pets*, though (or at least all the ones I've used). * under certain conditions - see underfyre's post below.

They do and they do not. Only certain attacks that would normally use the proc will trigger it. So if it's a proc from a knock back set, only attacks that have knock back will trigger the proc. 1 2 Sentinel DPS Spreadsheet Sentinel Builds, fifth post down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
