Why would you make the Comet-triggering build UNPLAYABLE?

Meanwhile Ranger class over here pressing two buttons to kill whole waves of mobs and soloing bosses in parties. Yet Sorc got nerfed...
You know right now GGG will never do a nerf that will ever hurt that class. This is PoE1 all over again.

good job self reporting the fact that you have zero idea what you are talking about lol.
multiple other builds are way stronger.

keep being ignorant tho, you types make it super easy for reasonable people to get reasonable changes made.

Stop creating problem where there isn't one.

And it's not about skill, you just don't want to adapt. Its not poe1, its different game in same franchise, so play it as it is and there will be as much fun as in po1

What is this guy even talking about?
People adapted, but got shot down while doing so.

Tell us what build you're playing so that GGG sees it and can nerf it. Please I dare you to post it publicly somewhere for GGG to pry their eyes on it.

Yeah man, during campaign I was in a 4 man party, we struggled with a boss. A ranger the same lvl as ours joined, and he did more DPS than all 4 of us combined xddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

triggered spells (cast on freeze specifically with comet) now trigger once every blue moon and at about the same rate on bosses as it used to even with full investment in energy and meta skills on the passive tree and using energy retention gems.
It used to proc 30 times a second which was too much honestly, but now it procs every 30 seconds 1 time if even that going full freeze build too which feels terrible as this is a heavy investment not only in passive tree but gem choice etc.
Also since it procs so rarely, the mobs are usually dead by the time the comet lands so it makes little sense to even have it, as it hits the empty ground. It works a little better on bosses admittedly you get 1-3 procs instead of 0-2 from my experience.
Not saying it's good/bad just saying how it feels to play the cast on freeze build specifically (blood mage) and the feeling is - why is it even in my gem slot.
Imagine picking blood mage, not taking your ascendancy points from first lab because it's an actual debuff instead of power gain, getting to finally do some damage with cast on freeze comet and now just need to spend 200k gold to respec and think of something else entirely, not a great feeling tbh.

If someone reads this, please guys, blood mage ascendancy first two points should not bee the life cost for spells, you are nowhere near items and passives to sustain this much life loss.

nerf all you need to nerf but for the love of whatever let us respec after. my skill tree is borked. i took a minion life node off and i lost 30 attributes?. i cant even use some of my gems lol. i cant afford 500k to respec.

I support him in changing his skills, but can you offer a free reset? I can't play the game at all with a lack of gold right now, I'm not a paid tester, and I even paid $100 for a support pack

you can add quality to the meta gem, you can add support gems like impetus, you can get increased energy from passive tree.
trigger mechanics like these HAVE to have a cost of investment as they are powerful lategame builds. it has always been this way and probably ever will be. also single target boss damage is way better now and there are multiple other ways to clear maps at a decent pace. eye of winter has high dps especially when combined with shocked or burning ground. archmage is a really strong damage multiplier. then theres crit of course. fork/chain/ricochet supports. and much more.

come on guys, stop crying on forums and start getting creative. my sorc is back on track or even stronger than before after 1 hour of adjusting things. i didnt change a single point on my skill tree.
but yea sure, i wouldnt mind if they gave out a free respec.

6man blasts 20 million dps / sec is fine tho?

Can you do math?

If CoC gains 1 energy per crit and I need 300 energy.
How much quality do I need to make it useful?

we need free respecs or gold reduction
