Silverbranch, is this how GGG will "nerf" items?
|
They're "breaking' uniques/skills that can cause issues in races. Think of the recent PA nerf
Kaoms isn't on their list, since it has drawbacks. Lioneye isn't BiS. SW or RF are the only ones I could see them adjusting at some point, even though it's not race specific. More notably RF than SW. Just my opinion of course. EDIT: I have no problem with what they did. I do expect longer term ladders though. Could use one right now honestly. Or at the beginning of S2 Last edited by SL4Y3R#7487 on Apr 5, 2013, 1:36:16 AM

" What's wrong with nerfing all of them then? If people are using them in builds just give them a respect. Creating "legacy" items is a big turn of for me, and I assume many others as well. I don't like things that create "hoard" mentalities. That's why I stray away from races and hardcore league. |

It's a fucking silverbranch damnit. Not the end of the world :)
New ladder please. 2 months preferred. |

There's nothing wrong with legacy items, all of you complaining are just butthurt you can't afford any of the godly items before they're nerfed so you want GGG to make it "fair". Well let me tell you something, it won't be fair for the people who worked their butts off to get that godly item only to have it nerfed. Those who were rich/smart enough to earn a godly unique deserve it. It doesn't need to be nerfed just so the slackers of the PoE community can feel better about themselves.
Animalistic in nature, somebody help me

" I'm morking my butt off to get the things I want, I'm no different to you. Why should I be punished for having different priorities? What happens if I get a Koam's a day too late? That sounds pretty lame. "Rich and smart" Stop being so smug. "Earn a godly unique" Please.... I didn't state items had to be "nerfed" I just want things to be retroactive. |

" Hard not to rant about this. GGG said they won't be touching items. This is how and this is another reason why I knew the permanent leagues would instantly be obsolete or legacy (to me), it was always going to be broken. Slackers like me can't be bothered with the permanent leagues. It's okay for skills to be universally nerfed, even though you spent time, effort playing, building, refining and so on (nevermind balance). Somehow not okay when it applies to items? What's the difference here? An alternative, even more direct, is what if I worked my ass off to get gear for specific builds? Now those builds get nerfed to shit through the PST, skills or mechanic changes. I mean something is getting changed because it's considered somewhat broken, but you decide you don't actually fix it. Something can't be working and broken at the same time. But oh well, screw balance and shit, just don't change the gear! |

What is the difference with Voll's protector from current?
"Gain a power charge on critical strike" vs " grants a power charge per target critically struck" ? Sounds the same to me? Last edited by RESERVATIONS#7418 on Apr 5, 2013, 2:44:16 AM

" give me an example: you use ice nova while you are surrounded by 10 monkeys and crit -> all 10 monkeys are hit hit with a critical strike you gain -> 1 <- power charge with the change you would theoretically get 10 charges (limited by your max number of charges ofc) |
|
|
So the new change for volls should be beneficial?
|
|
" yes, extremely. You need to crit with only one area attack and you have maxed out power charges now. Bullshit, you get the game for free.
