if VP is removed, this will reach insane price

Their going to nerf that so it does nothing.

Internal mechanical changes are not immune retro active nerfs.

Discussions about balance, VP and reflect are meaningless without a baseline.

People who stop at dried lake and never even notice reflect on their 70 chars should not speak about end game reflect or damage scaling or mob spike damage.

If reflect is not a major consideration in your build (that happens to not be a totem or something) then you clearly have never reached anywhere near end game damage with your build.

what a load of bullshit.

My crit arcer with full crit spec in a 6-linked pledge deals with reflect fine.

It did spec into VP later on and equiped a vinktar just for "shits and giggles reflect"(cause why not, it's there) but it did not have to.

And lightning reflect damage is probably the spikiest form of ele reflect you can encounter.

Hell i ran reflect maps without VP and vinktar before i made the swap.

Char is a raider btw, no elementalist 50% reflect reduction gimicks etc zzzz.

All i get from your post is that you overspec in offense and then go "well you clearly never overspecced in damage so it's a non issue for you" to which i would have to say "duh?".

^Zzzz read my edit.

Also i ran tier 15's with that build without issues and reflect maps while being crit arc with no vp/vinktar early on.

Whoever said i played tier 1 builds? And who gives a fuck about character levels above lvl 90?

Peace,

Congratulations on running a single low rolled T15 map once or twice and proclaiming you're end game and reflect proof.

Congratulations on likely never finishing a T16 in your life compared to the the hundreds I've ran in about 1 minute each.

Congratulations on my proving my point about level capped characters having no understanding of end game damage scaling or reflect.

There's a reason your highest character is a level 92 pledge of hands arc raider.

Congratz on making a bunch of assumptions.

Whatever floats your boat i reckon?

Congrats on being completely destroyed both in game and on the forums.

But if my assumptions are wrong, please post a video of your build doing end game content on a "hard" map.

Offense: 1 shot a T16 mob in less than 1 second. 1 minute T16 clear.
Defense: 82 to all elemental resits, max block, VP, ~half of total damage leeched, 10,000 ES.

Please show us how your end game build measures up.
