Too much penetration on tree and items, need 50% cap on that.

oh, i know it has diminishing returns.

but pretending diminishing returns is some sort of negative/counter/reason why it's NOT op is just silly. it was basically his only argument against it.

as if doing quadruple damage is somehow offset by the fact that one could do double damage with less investment.


especially when 63-68 pen is done with very low investment, with just a boot enchant (10 pen) , wise oak (15 or 20), and a pen gem (38). wow. much opportunity cost.

it's almost the 75 pen he complained about (50 more than 25), and with virtually no offset.

Ya def, you aren't wrong. We've all started pulling our pen gems in links at this point in favour of global pen and pure per hit dmg.

It would be sad if they nerfed pen and left zerphis again, i think block tanks would still die but zerphis would be a problem, and something like fyndl build would definitely be immortal. Relith stated something in the realms of 100 pen (including a cold pen support) to combat the talisman conversion tank before he could reliably kill it.

Edit: I'm not overly up to date on stnd PvP but that was last I heard at any rate. Things are too stale and painful, just been messin around in fail league lately.

lol. nice news,

IS there really someone in the balance team thinking:

"fuck! we don t have enough penetration to kill 45% elem res bosses. I am counting on my gear, I have 10% on boots,37% with support,5% on belt,15% in flask.... humm no no no will not work at all 67% pen? wow too low! Should I use nghamau or dual sambar shaped for 20% more and 32% more? hum WTF too low! "

*edit*
forgot 6-10% ascendacies, shaped amu 10% pen/xoph, 5% casters class on tree/27% attack class on tree.

We really need to boost pen on tree guys, clearly there is not enough. All of this to boost ignite... you know the shit you nerfed like 1 big extension ago. jaja.



So I guess GGG think we need more pen.

Can we get about 30 pen on tabula rasa too? Also I wouldn t mind to get 10% pen per projectiles on frost bolts thks.

MAybe give oro a 50% pen when ignite enemies too.

I can agree with that guy, elemental penetration really need cap up to 50%, and GGG shoud consider to add some physical penetration too, because everyone, or almost everyone use elemental damage.
