if it lost any more flavor it'd be the default attack.

" Probably to balance out the huge potential Power Creep added by the new Ascendancies they had to scale back a lot of the damage. Just looking at the Charm one and being able to add 3 Ascendancy Notables is insane. |

Did I understand this correctly: All alternative gems will become regular skill gems once Affliction is released?

how to say 'do not play this skill, ever' without actually using these words.
there are more such 'gems' among the changes. note: Dual Strike was already borderline useless because it relied on first hit for damage AND required dual wielding - both rather.. unsupported mechanics. i think GGG believes this is 'clear skill' you keep in a 3Link and use something better for single target but.. melee is socket starved even more so than summoners. and why use 1 good and 1 bad skill if you can use 1 good spell and call it a day? They had perfect opportunity to fix some garbage skills (like Dual Strike) but somehow they think Tornado Shot and Dual Strike have similar performance |

Just checked poe.ninja for main skills in Ancestor league
Tornado shot: 10290 Dual Strike: 14 Clearly Dual Strike needed this nerf, some people were still using it! This'll teach 'em! |

Divine ire gets 140% damage per stage for 10 stages increase.
Dual strike gets its tiny damage nerfed. This says everything about the state of the game that there is to say. " Tornado shot got buffed too :D Last edited by plaguefear#7132 on Dec 1, 2023, 4:34:06 PM
