kill the hp node requirement

Krips templar build takes full HP nodes and can still kill everything with gear.

Full DPS nodes cannot survive anything without gear.

That is the very definition of biased. More HP should simply allow you to survive longer, but the game shouldn't be impossible to play on a pure DPS character. Not everyone enjoys playing tanks.

Like said, just because you can't do it, doesn't mean it's impossible.

your gear has zero life on it...get gear with life on it 1st of all.

remember...the HP nodes on the passive tree are % based, so with a few nodes you can really boost hp by getting some gear with it on there.

get hp on gear
get hp on gear

No one can do it, its impossible to play full DPS when you just get 1 shot killed in Merc.

Tell me then, how many players in merc are taking zero HP / CI nodes, and full DPS and winning? The answer is zero.

Yet anyone doing nothing but stacking HP nodes doesn't even struggle to beat the game.

my point of this is not to destroy the hp build, but to make it an option not a requirement.

you want to face-tank? cool.

you don't want to face tank but be able to fight monsters your level? that would be nice.

best way to do this would be to double life node bonuses and remove 25% of em (or leave em for the super tanks).

diversity will do nothing but wonders for this game.

serious question...what do you consider "beating the game"? our disconnect may lie with this answer.

There are a few very high level players that have different builds. HP is just easier, so of course it's more popular.

lulz read it wrong, yah you're right it doesn't it hasn't been exalted yet.

but even if i roll 60 hp on every piece 60 x 190% = 114; even if i stack life 60 x 290% = 174; x5 = 1000 more hp.

Being able to level to whatever is currently possible without being constantly 1 shotted and losing all your XP.

somewhere between 0 and 1000 is your balance
