It's kinda like going "SRS is too OP; let's nerf Spell Echo." (emphasis, kinda)
Exactly.

How does that make any sense? They, with a large part of the community, believe mjolners are OP. Hence, the direct nerf to mjolner, not discharge or romiras or voll's.

The large part of the community you speak off are babies who don't have or can't afford one lol. If they knew anything about the game, they would know the Mjolner is strong - but definitely not OP.

Nobody cares about Mjollner DPS, its the fact it lags the game as hell. There is quite big difference in seeing things die equally fast when u have fluent game experience rather than heving lag fest, seeing nothing but overburnt shit all over your screen on every single monster pack.

Personally I think that whole CoC and smilar mechanics are quite retarded and shouldn't be ever introduced to the game in first place. Then you wouldnt cry every single time someone is trying to touch and modify it to more acceptible form. Why? Because you would be quite happy with some ofther build which is able to do pretty much same thing (like you said, there is many of them).

Trying to prevent such builds to get into my party is not solution. They tend get in no matter what I do... even when I set up no lag builds title. It doesnt matter. Also I meet them when I want to join someone's party.

Speaking of argument that most crying ppl just can't afford one. I can afford it, but why the fuck I would buy item which makes my gameplay to be like high fps, no fps, high fps, no fps while all I can see is equal to nuke explosion ALL THE TIME. I want to see the game, not perma Discharge animation.

Honestly, I have NO CLUE how you can possibly be willing to play such build.

OP or not, it would be buffed with the new changes increasing the base attack speed and discharge's damage. It needs the retroactive nerf which will at least bring it back down to where it is now. Mjolners are the last thing they should ever buff.

Like I said earlier, mjolner itself is not OP. You need legacy gear, 6L shavs, and a high lvl to make it powerful.

The problem is, and always has been, volls devotion.

Well, that and BR.

My two most hated uniques in the game are Voll's Devotion and Romira's Banquet, in that order. I believe I have good reasons.

In any case, I've never seen an abusive Mjolner build which wasn't using at least one of those as an engine.
When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

I've seen plenty of mjolner builds that just used double arc that still completely wiped the screen and then some before I could even reach the monsters. The problem is mjolner.

I've seen every 10ex tornado shot build wipe the screen. Yet no one complains because they can afford it lol.
