POE - An abstraction to rework the fortify abutment gem

I accept the anticipation action abaft fortify was a way to affected some of the gap amid ranged and affray skills, you accept to be abutting with affray so application this accomplishment will advice you yield beneath damage.


However this accomplishment takes up a gem aperture so affray characters do beneath accident unless it's on addition accomplishment and a lot of spell casters can still proc it with their movement skill.


My abstraction for a band-aid is accomplish fortify both accord accident and abate accident based on how abounding links fortify is affiliated to PoE trade currency. This would attract the amateur to abutment their capital accomplishment with fortify. For archetype if a fortify gave "5% added damage and 5% bargain accident per affiliated gem".


A sunderboi could now put fortify in his 6L adjourn (5 gems added than fortify) and get 25% added accident and accident abridgement accordingly buffing the aftereffect for affray characters.


A cast amphitheater appearance could still use it in absorber charge, but aback it's alone in a 3L it would alone accord 10% accident reduction.


A ancillary aftereffect of this maybe searching for shaper items with gems are accurate by X as a way to augment your fortify.


Anyway that's just my 2 cents but I feel like fortify was advised with the ambition to advice affray and this change would do that.


Wow humans are accepting absolutely dismissive of this abstraction and I in actuality anticipate it's absolutely clever.


The alone acumen I would agnosticism it anytime makes it into the bold is the actuality that it brings addition absolutely new artisan into play: the abstraction of the bulk of gem links affecting the gems themselves.


Now this could absolutely be a cast new artisan that GGG supports and cultivates on added new or reworked gems and that would be cool dope, but it apparently isn't gonna happen.


I like the "linked to bulk of gems mechanic" of this abstraction but not abiding how I'd like it for Fortify.


I like the tradeoff amid either accepting Fortify up all the time by sacrificing accident in your mainskill or accepting to get out of your way by abacus it to a movement skill.


Making it accommodate accident AND aegis would accomplish it either a accept to accept on every 6L or, if the accident isnt as top as added abutment gems, would still advance to "outsourcing" it to about abroad to aerate the DPS on your capital accomplishment but then you'd accept the downside of accepting added accident (unless you accept addition 6L). This tradeoff feels kinda off to me, I candidly deceit put my feel on why though.


I alone like the added sources of Fortify. The Carve threshhold jewel, champ advantage and aswell the "x% adventitious to fortify on hit" bribery (thats still a thing, right?)


Cool idea, not abiding if i'd like to see it on Fortify though.
