Talk:Herald of Thunder

Primary usage should get title without modifier
Since I expect the primary usage of "Herald of Thunder" would be the skill gem, I recommend using the unmodified title for it. The unique monster, or whatever the other usage is, should get the parenthetical modifier in the title. A disambiguation note can be added to the skill gem page to link users to where they need to go if they meant the other usage. If people are in agreement with this change, I will take the necessary steps. —Vini (t|c) 04:01, 21 October 2014 (UTC)

Experience values
The experience values seem to currently be bugged in game. Level 8 required more experience than level 9 at the time of my testing (1.2.4 release night). This should be watched for if it is fixed and the values are flipped back to what they normally should be.--Martialdragon (talk) 09:01, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
 * That's not necessarily a bug. The amount of experience required for any specific level on any particular gem is not always more than the previous level. —Vini (t|c) 11:50, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

Casting and Spell Interactions
The article states that Faster Casting has a similar effect on Herald of Thunder as it does on Firestorm. This does not seem to be the correct analogy, as Faster Casting simply allows you to cast Firestorm faster, which may result in more Firestorms being stacked on top of each other. Isn't it more similar to the effect of Quality (and, therefore, Enhance) on Firestorm, which reduces the time in between Fireballs? —DagonxXx (t) 21:15, 01 January 2015 (UTC)

Faster casting only affects casting the buff, not the speed of the strikes, per Daniel_GGG (http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1180488). I'm afraid my wiki-fu is not strong enough to update this info with the correct reference; perhaps someone could do it for me? - Bagman817 (t)13:33, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
