Announcements - What's coming in 1.0.5? - Forum

I haven't seen freeze mine/proliferation at work, but that doesn't seem like it would be unnaturally effective? Oh well, maybe I'll see when I go to make a trapper and find that I feel under powered.	Posted by MillionAc3 on Dec 31, 2013, 4:16:15 AM Quote this Post

Thing is, all of the crazy Johnny items require extra work on the part of GGG, so it may take a while before we see them. The straightforward items get out first. Patience plz. :) So that one item that randomly curses yourself and then gives you enhanced damage when cursed will have to wait a bit. Or the one that gives endurance stacks when failing to block and then consumes them when you block.

This game is no longer in Beta. Stop nerfing and changing crap in the middle of a long league. This does not effect my build but this is one of the reasons D3 flopped. Don't make the same mistakes as Blizzard GGG. Solution: Maybe for the first two years do 4 month leagues. 1 week of rebalance between long specialized leagues. You get your patches in and high lvl players don't get their builds nerfed that they spent 100's of hours on. Side note: Why punish skillful creative players who are apt at utilizing the games mechanics? You really want to lose those players?

I quit 1 lvl 85 build before due to nerfs... be careful GGG, don't know if I will start another lvl 80+ build when you nerf aegis. Don't worry. GGG doesn't nerf uniques per se, they create legacy versions. So you would still be able to enjoy your legacy aegis :). This message was delivered by GGG defence force.

Because, by punishing them they relatively reward players who don't use "overpowered" techniques. People are currently being scared to death about investing too much currency into their cast on crit builds :D. This message was delivered by GGG defence force.

Don't make the same mistakes as Blizzard GGG. What? Blizzard left CM and WWBarb untouched and will leave them untouched up until the release of the expansion. When something is detrimental to the play experience you have to intervene no matter what effect it has on the league standings.

Because killing things that are permanently frozen is not really playing the game? Last edited by Zed_ on Dec 31, 2013, 9:51:42 AM	Posted by Zed_ on Dec 31, 2013, 9:43:05 AM Quote this Post

If you band-aid fix this, it will make it harder for legitimate uses of the skill to work, and proliferated freezes will still be objectively better because they scale irrespective of the monster's health. I know its dumb, but has anyone yet thought of fixing elemental proliferation?! You have freeze mine already, so no need to build in new stuff! How?! Easy! => Make the gem "proliferate" not the freeze duration but the dmg it did as freeze mine "virtual" ice dmg! LoL, now that I think of it, freeze mine is the solution for ele proliferation! :D :D :D	Posted by Taipion on Dec 31, 2013, 10:34:33 AM Quote this Post
