Skill Functions and Interactions

Ballista: Siege Ballista is part of the ballista sub-class of totems. Ballista totems have inherent added totem limit. They have a much shorter summoning range, spawning much closer to the summoner.

Bow: Siege Ballista requires that a bow is equipped in order to be cast and has a Bow Gem tag.

Since Siege Ballista's attacks are also bow attacks, effects such as Point Blank and Chin Sol'sChin Sol

Attack: Siege Ballista fires ranged attacks that scale off of base attack damage, and thus scale directly off of the player's equipped bow and other attack stats. Siege Ballista fires at 50% of the attack speed of the equipped bow. Siege Ballista attacks can be evaded.
