Gladiator Spell Block Hard Nerf

logged in after like 2 years or sth, saw my gladiator, logged out...

Aura Stackers equip Divergent Tempest Shield and cap out spell block immediately with it.

Yet it was too much for Gladiator to have as a melee class in a PoE world where everything is balanced around spells.

What a hateful balancing job.

Used to play dual strike 70+ attack and spell block gladiators.
350hours+ each league

Even overcame the nerf to might and influence way back.

But the triple whammy in 3.16 of removing spell block from Glad and destroying melee attack speed and damage nodes made it non-viable to even attempt building att block + suppression as they also removed another load of dual wield block from the tree.. duh!.
gave up 3.16 after two weeks.

Looked at double strike shield build last league, and gave up after a week.

Left this league well alone, and boy was that a good choice! :).

Can't see me playing the game again given the direction GGG have taken it.
