Suggestion: A fix for Minion Master and Death Magic

For the next Elite Specialization, the devs could remove the majority of MM skills and traits and create a dedicated MM ES. This would free up traits and skills to fill in some of the class's shortcomings like defense, which Death Magic is supposed to be focused on. Death Magic and new base skills could give new life to core Necro. A dedicated MM trait would also provide a lot of room to add in all the things that could make MM viable.

As a replacement for minion skills, I propose a group of skills called something like Fatalities. Most of these skills have some kind of main ability or attack (some power some poison) and has a second effect if the target either falls below a health threshold within a certain time say 2-3 seconds or is downed.

My main point has been made above. If you're not fond of reading skill suggestions STOP NOW.Some ideas for new Fatality skills. NOTE Not balanced at all. Numbers are very adjustable. Also, some of the skill features may be better off as trait enhancements:Linked Fate½ Activation time 30 Recharge timeMark target Foe with Linked Fate. If your health is below the threshold within the duration, the target takes additional damage and is poisoned. If you are downed, the target is also stunned.Health Threshold: 50%Poison (6s): 201 Damage, -33% Heal EffectivenessSelf Poison (6s): 201 Damage, -33% Heal EffectivenessAdditional Damage:1200Additional Poison: Poison (6s): 603 Damage, -33% Heal EffectivenessStun: 2 secondsRange: 1,200UnblockableDuration: 3s

Death Stalker½ Activation time 30 Recharge timeSend out a homing missile to strike a target. Upon a successful strike, the opponent is marked for death. Summon a Deathly Horror (like a jagged horror with poison and better health) attacking the opponent marked for death if they fall below the health threshold during the duration. Activating secondary skill teleports you to the minion destroying it.Damage: 330 (0.6)?Range: 1200Health Threshold: 75%Duration: 5 seconds
