Anyone thinks curse (aura's) stacking is way too strong?

The whole thing is academic anyway.

Before Blasphemy came out a guy in my guild used Ball Lightning to deliver 6 curses on hit.

Nothing changed except the reliability of applying curses, auras make it automatic (at the cost of range, LOS, and using other auras).

So he used 2 ball lightning curse on hit setups?

Nope. You can get curse on hit from more than just linked gems.

so... ball lightning - curse on hit - curse - curse - curse - curse - and curse glove corrupted implicit

wheres the sixth?

Stacking is an issue but not just for curses, it's a general thing in this game.

You can use asenath gloves with corrupted implicit.

That only gives you a total of 5 curses with 1 curse on hits setup because curse on hit requires 2 slots, one for the ability to apply the curse and 1 for the curse on hit gem itself.

On a cellphone so brief responses 2 curses from gloves (corrupted with implicit curse) 4 from 6l. I think 5 with gmp seems better.

if it makes you guys feel any better, map bosses have 60% reduced curse effectiveness

making that huge 30 into a mere 12

Yeah but the point is most support characters usually have like 30-60% increased curse effectiveness or just ridiculous base curse strength (enhance gem) which almost nullifies the 60% reduced cursed effectiveness because they are additive. Which means non map boss will pretty much be hit with time stops and 50% less accuracy and damage if or just get resists thrown into oblivion and provide leech or life and mana gain on being hit, etc. !

Well I think it's not too bad since it's a dedicated support character. Groups are way too OP anyways.

???

Asenath's gloves with corrupted coh = 2 curses
6l coh setup = 4 curses

2 + 4 = 5?

They are pretty good for my build (i run 3 curse auras but i am not a support char), but i don't think they make it OP. Brokenfall is the main culprit in my case.
