Molten Strike got a buff

It's a nerf. It's less DPS and less survival since part of surviving was predicated on a shit load of balls and LGoH and now less balls

You forgot that it received base damage buff as well (147% - 161%). Also the damage reduction part might go down to 29% at gem level 21. Assuming that you get a free jewel slot thanks to wildfire change - the damage is actually the same, or slightly higher. Clear speed will be worse though

I did, yes. Someone already corrected me on reddit earlier today. But it's ok. Only rushed over the patch notes this morning before I headed to work. The conclusion is that it's such a minor nerf that it can actually be considered a buff damage-wise, it's just that Life Gain on Hit with AC Support and CoC is less effective now.

Yeah i'd say it's a buff for bossing and nerf for clearing

MS is gutted.

You now NEED uber enchant and dying sun, these will be expensive as fuck.

If you need xoph as well, then you are double fucked.

All this to have less dps then in previous league. While arc miners and CoC can kill all the bosses you can, but can clear maps 10x faster.

Plus, you usually build ms on jugg to farm lab or elder. Now you get more shitty mods into enchant pool and guardians have their drop rates nerfed. What's the point then...

Guys, will the lab enchant nerfs be applied to current enchanted gear?

Thanks

Can someone from GGG come in this thread and confirm this guy actually plays the game?

Just ignore the guy, and don't feed him - I think he rolls dice to determine what he will type.

Current gear will stay (at least that was the case in the past)

Never played MS as an endgame build (too spammy / performance issues / cant see shit), but a few leagues back I've hit a lucky enchant.

One of the few times lab enchant rng made sense

Because if you mean me, uh...yeah, okay. I think I've sufficiently proven in the past 6 years here that I tend to put a lot of thought and care into what I type. :)

No, I'm just genuinely curious if you play the game. Your highest level character is 84, and before you made your profile private your highest level character was around level 40.

So to me it seems like you played delve league, but before that didn't really play the game at all, despite having sunk tens of thousands of dollars into it. I am asking GGG to confirm whether or not you actually play the test servers, because I think you are just LARPing.

First of all, I'm not insulting you, I'm just asking if you actually play the game or if you are pretending that you do, because you make a lot of comments on the viability of end game builds while seemingly never even making it to the point of seeing a shaper/elder weapon, or leveling a gem to 19 let alone 20. I have no problem with you speculating on end game or anything like that, but I just needed to know if you were actually playing on the test server or just making stuff up. If you like to play through the first 3 acts of the game over and over again, that's fine, good for you, I like playing the beginning of dark souls every now and then despite having beaten the whole game a half a dozen times.

I have however, gotten higher than your highest level character in one day, so forgive me if I think you're just talking out of your ass, because you'd think GGG would want people testing their new patches to make it to end game and comment on the new mechanics and how they affect the end game (what almost all of PoE players are actually playing).

Great. Got one myself as well. Hope it lasts.

Charan is LARPing as a PoE supporter?.. Is this Inception?
