The incoming deterioration of item progression and build diversity when everything is simplified?

Those who cry out the most are those who complain about what they aren't satisfied at. Aka those who don't or can't run crit.

If Crit is no longer a stronger option than RT, then there is nothing to strive for.

If Crit is inherently more expensive are significantly more difficult to gear, then why should people spec crit if it's not better than RT?

If the 2 above are true, then item progression will fall apart as there is nothing to upgrade from the basic RT Non crit beginner gear and playstyle.

Will the woes of the poor who can neither create a viable crit build nor afford one become the detriment to build diversity as RT becomes the pillar to all builds in PoE?

Will this continuing transgression of the community becomes the ultimate downfall to this currently complex game, where all builds are the same and no one is stronger than the other because gear no longer diversifies and the non crit is the only meta?

PS
Shut up about Acuity, anyone who complains about them are either:

1. Jealous because they don't have one.
2. Can't theory craft for shit because they have a horrible build that can't handle reflect.
3. Are uninformed and are blindfolded following the blind.

Acuitys are the ultimate endgame item that people strive for. If there is nothing to strive for then why play a fucking ARPG

Putting your salt aside.

How hard would crit have to get nerfed to bring about this cataclysm in your opinion?

Also you may want to proof read before posting.

Item progression already went down the shitter when the level 8 Elreon mod was implemented, and crit weapons were the hardest hit (that is, "mid-tier" crit weapons are far more powerful than they have ever been).
Read my book! The world ending in every way anyone ever thought it might end, all at once. First few chapters are available online for free.

even if crit is nerfed to
Crit%: Untouched
crit x%: capped at 200%

crit would still be strong
can generate status alignement
can deal extra dmg which:
-deal more damage
-longer status period
-more likely to get stunning hits
can proc stuff
can refill pots
can generate charges
can turn life leech into life on hit

Well, this thread wasted a spot in the GD section.

Yep.

Also, like 3rd thread he's making with the base argument being "Other want (too?) powerful things nerfed because they can't run it themselves."

Really?
Yea man wtf, what is the point of running crit if it can not have 6 times more DPS along with instant leech and infinite flasks.

Those scrubs are ruining the game!
Preaches build diversity.

Wants crit to remain far and away the best way to build a character.

Cool story.
