Fetish Sycophants damage is now increased by your highest elemental damage type at the time of summoning
So...wow. As if FS wasn't already an amazing passive.
Now, the main question I have is how is this going to interact with the Convention of the Elements ring? It doesn't say that it deals the same damage as your highest Elemental type, just that the damage increases.
If the tooltip is correct, it seems that the CoE will vie for a ring slot for FS Witch Doctors.
Well, maybe that or the Little Man's Finger... the at time of summoning thing would mean what only 20% of them would have the ring buff. But I'd like to see this with a Zuni/Carnevil build just to see the crits on the buffed with all the Poison Darts.
No, the thing is that, if the tool tip is correct, every single FS spawned would have the 150-200% bonus, since the element doesn't matter. The damage increases by your highest type. It makes no mention of FS dealing any elemental type, just that they get your biggest bonus. If your biggest bonus is 150-200%, then that's the extra damage they would do, regardless of what the actual element CoE was on at the time.
You should report that and see if it's a bug or intended. I'm leaning towards bug, because why would they have the FS snapshot your elemental damage? The only time it fluctuates is with that ring.

What do you guys think?

Testing just seems to confirm that the FSs ignore the CoE when spawning. Nevermind y'all. -)
