A whole host of problems would be solved if every single elemental resist was replaced by Resist All Elements

Resistances work they are just not worth taking over any other bonus because they are very weak compared to every other defense stat

You have to get like 1700% resist for a 80% damage reduction to one element or something absolutely ridiculous.

And if you even could do that, it would be fuckin' stupid, because you'd just fish for NM Dungeon: Enemies Do Fire, or have to keep five sets of gear in the stash, and all the while Blizz is designing enemy damage around players being able to block 80% of it Just let it be weak, but have it affect all non-physical damage, and have it take up a MUCH smaller amount of the Affix Pool

I'm praying that means the Emote wheel ability that you only use for the Campaign... Does it also affect the teleport to a town ability?

pork never goes bad posted:I think a lot of the druid slog comes from people trying to go bear or wolf early. I've seen a lot of folks talking about triple companion feeling pretty good early on, and I know poison creeper continues to feel good until 50+ without too much investment. With the raven damage bug being fixed they might move from full garbage only good for a debuff to d-tier! gently caress companions and teddy bear transformations. Stormstrike, lightning storm, cyclone armor, trample (with the landslide aspect), hurricane, cataclysm. Fuckin melt screens of poo poo. until this poo poo sandwich of a patch

Which is the majority of the playerbase Seems like they could choose to not expose the pile of advanced seasonal mechanics to new players in campaign and/or WT1+2, and then let them figure it out in WT3 afterwards if they continue playing.

Were any particular builds "winners" here by virtue of something more than just not being as strongly nerfed? Necro summoner maybe? But with a busted paragon board, the weird "+minion attack speed only applies 30% of what it says" bug, and lack of a "sic 'em" command, its still less than ideal.

I find pretty much everything about the patch to be dumb and annoying, but I'm still kind of excited to try out season 1 and see how it actually feels to play with the hearts and whatnot. Still not 100% sure what class I'm going to go with though.

Vic posted:No not really. The whole thing is about slowing the game down for everyone equally. I think Vic is totally correct here. If you really look at the over all patch notes the goal to pace things back some adds up. It also makes sense when you look at the builds that were meta prior to S1. They almost all maximized DPS over anything else, survivability was an after thought or secondary goal. CC was just there because it often buffs DPS. I suspect that in general the game we've been playing was not the goal Blizz had initially. It'll be interesting to see if they succeeded or not in slowing things down and make more varied builds viable. That said I don't get the Sorc nerfs being so harsh and I'm skeptical WT4 is going to be any sort of fun. Ostrava fucked around with this message at 23:17 on Jul 18, 2023 |

My guess is penetrating shot rogue as FOTM, but who knows. Melee rogues are going to be pretty squishy with the armor and siphoning strikes nerfs
