What's your opinion of the ability?

I think people that play with a couple of challenges, particularly Into the Darkness, will appreciate this one. While players in general may have less of a warm reception, preferring Trinity, I'm guessing. I mean if I had to pick the top one at the moment, it'd probably be Trinity. And I kinda like Ascended Form as well—mainly paired with a speed ring or Hallowed Ground.

I haven't spent enough time with PoM to get a good feel for it yet. Similarly with Trinity, though that's because of the number of combinations available. That one will take a while to gauge.

I love it

It's a blessing if you know how to use allies, you actually have some control over the Allies you couldn't control before

I agree that it will get more popular when people experiment more

I like being able to scoop up the sad ghost with Stasis. The teleportation and attack direction with Beaming Ray is also useful. Still need to put some points into Life Link and try it out. I wonder if this armor ability, and its spells, might need a buff later on to incentivize people to use it more. Even with the full entourage of sad ghost and the earthen guardian, I don't see much benefit with PoM; in comparison to Trinity or AF. It's not bad, it's just not as good; in my opinion.

There are a lot more Allies

I predict we will see more use of Scroll of Siren song, since we can use Stasis to move enemies to other floors and we can use Beaming Ray to kind of control them

Controlling a piranha sounds broken, they are unmatched

Unmatched, in water. But if you're going that far you probably have a few aqua brews on hand. I wonder how Stasis would bring out a piranha; what if there is no water on sight, nearby?

You did bring up a good point about other allies. I almost never use a scroll of siren song because I never really needed an extra hand. But a Paladin with PoM is probably the most opportune time to take advantage of that scroll so I'll play around with it.

Good question 🤔

I really want to try too.

Good luck with it
