Feedback and Suggestions - The removal of ALL aura specific mastery reservation nodes ruined the league for me - Forum

It was suggested minion builds would have access to these masteries to somewhat balance all its gear being tied up. Here that is gone. It's a chore, an unfunny chore. All defenses required and those keep getting removed.	Posted by treme on Apr 1, 2023, 11:58:18 AM Quote this Post

There are TONS of small buffs in this league. I don't get all the whining. The aura specific reservation nodes are CLEARLY easily replaceable by the new mana mastery - well, unless you're running around with one aura, which should make the nerfs a non-issue. I think people are unable to see the wider picture. Sure, you have to take 2-3 mana nodes, but that's NOT the end of the world if you just use a few minutes to see the alternatives. Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.	Posted by Phrazz on Apr 2, 2023, 8:25:19 AM Quote this Post
It became a mainstay in almost every build, it was a matter of time. Nerfed or removed, I personally don't care, auras do nothing, I rather have another active ability.	Posted by ChimpMagnet on Apr 2, 2023, 11:25:20 AM Quote this Post

However, that is based on the premise that GGG deemed that aura's in their current state are used by way too many builds as a no-need-to-think mechanic against generally taking damage. This evaluation is entirely correct in my opinion. As such, aura nerfs did need to happen. Remember, nothing prevents you from using aura's... you just have to use one or two less. If your build doesn't work without them, that validates that GGGs evaluation of aura's being too powerful is correct... As also said, I got through to L97 with ease this league without having to use more than Grace and Aspect of the Cat. Look at the new masteries with new eyes, and see how well they'll synergise with the reduced number of aura's you can still use. You can not use all the auras you could before, nor should you be able to! we sure can tell you easily got to lvl 97 and a whole 14 challenges done in a extended league you must be a 1 percenter in the game.

Getting to L97 does not make you a 1%'er. It just requires that you know how to level without dying. That's easy. I've done 14 challenges because I don't give a rats ass about them... Those 14 happened naturally without any effort from me. Why on earth should I bother about 'challenges' someone else has defined? I have however played since 2014, and I do know the game and its general mechanics. Being a 1%'er is not a qualification for anything either... except of.c. in the eyes of said 1%'er...
