What is point of movement skills other than whirling blades?
|
I find this ironic that you think the others suck.
They are all different. Yes whirling blades is 'op' atm according to some, but that doesn't mean its better in every way. Here are a few things to note that mean some people have two: Flame dash - can go over 'gaps', useful for certain areas of lab that you can't whirling blades over those gaps. Also much better if you have tons of cast speed tand no aspd Leap slam - even better range, broader weapon use, theres a notorious S shaped trap combo in lab you can literally just leap across, or places like bridges in act 2, etc. LW - see previous, same as above with cast speed too Phase run - this is a completely different type of movement skill... |

" Other skills are useful for going over "gaps". Wow these skills are useful in like 5% of time when Wb is better 95% of time. "Is there such a thing as an absolute, timeless enemy? There is no such thing, and never has been. And the reason
is that our enemies are human beings like us. They can only be our enemies in relative terms." |

Most movement skills are fine as they are.
I am currently using Lightning Warp, Leap Slam and Flame Dash, and the first two definitely do their jobs very well. Maybe Whirling Blades is globally better, but that doesn't make it necessary to improve the other two. The really subpar movement skill is Flame Dash. Its recovery time is way too slow to make it useful for moving around quickly. |

WB is the best,no question about it,but other skills are fine too.

I feel GGG should nerf WB usefulness as "just movement skill" down to other movement skill levels.
IMO, GGG should bump the movement nodes in skill tree & Master crating in the gears. Skill tree have like 2-5% it is too useless. players who wanna move real fast? they should take skill point in the tree, craft movespeed in their gear etc. the current 1 skill gem to rule all movement skill just "too mainstream" Last edited by Darkkrows#6635 on May 6, 2016, 8:18:47 AM

LW is my favorite. Any distance and over chasms. With elementalist you can actually farm up about 13 maps with just lightning warp. warping pack to pack and they melt from prolif.
I dont have any bug outs. might be a ping issue. LW you can also apply double or triple curses to monsters when you get there due to huge aoe and curse on hit. Cursing an AOE with a movment skill is pretty useful since you move anyway with that skill and dont have to waste a cast turn on applying curses or run blasphemy. Basically FREE cursing. I don't even run WB when I run daggers I like LW so much. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYjNR8FcVDE Edit I forgot also Lightning Warp applies shock stack to monsters for more deeps for your other spells. LW is hands down best movement skill. Thats probably why GGG made it cost 3 supports to be worth a shit hahaha WB is good for fortify thats about it. Git R Dun!

my favourite is lightning warp but I use all of them, it depends on the build.
btw you're missing shield charge :v |

Damn, I didn't notice Rapid Decay could lower the teleportation time. I'll have to try it.

In my opinion, they need to nerf it to oblivion, and reduce move speed sources by a lot overall. The game is WAY too fast currently, and the variance in move speed between builds can be 1 to 10, it's ridiculous and make party play not funny at all, to the point I just avoid it as much as possible, because I can't keep up with WB builds on crack that clear 3 screens ahead.
edit: even 4L LW with rapid decay can hardly keep up with WB, maybe if you just wharp for the whole map and don't cast a single time nor pick loot. Very enjoyable. edit2: that being said, I also prefer LW to WB; it's just a great utility. Ranger builds list: /917964 When two witches watch two watches, which witch watches which watch? If the witches watching watches watch the same watch while you watch which witch watches which watch, they switch watches; then, the watch switching witches watch which watch you watch. Watching witches watch watches is not for the faint of heart... Last edited by Panini_aux_olives#1967 on May 6, 2016, 11:20:50 AM
