So the Balance of Dawn update is off.

Like I dont mind abit of slower game play or it being harder, as long as its 1 fun an rewarding atm I haven't seen to much interms of fun or rewarding just massive hp bars to poke at it what like 100x+ with auto attacks early on vs most act bosses with no reward for the effort at all, this isn't fun at all.

The over all balance is off all over the place more so off start which makes every thing feel like a pain, more so to the point of a lot of skills struggling, when basic attacks are just out right better then every skill to me thats something very wrong.
Like look at spear for one, auto attack pretty much out shines all skills for the most part for a fair bit of time.

Like I get some of the reasons for this is, 1 it makes it hard for Gold bots to stay live when things are this rough.
But the down side to this is it makes it worse time for the avg player as well.

Currently it takes a lot of effort to kill things for a good part of act 1-3+ from what I seen an heard from every one else.

There hasn't been really any one that went this is the best thing ever an just crushing it.
Its been a slow walk in deep swamp an all the monsters are more speed bumps that just slow game play down even more for zero rewards for the effort.

GGG needs to fix the balance of effort an reward now, cause it takes way to long to gain nothing which then fulls the cycle for a lot of people to being stuck at times an hurts the progression an fun of the game for them.

See for me I felt the game was in a very nice place in the acts 1-3 before the dawn update was great it was well balance over all, they should of kept that speed from there an lower the mid to end game to match that same speed, which is how they should of done dawn is my thoughts, an adjust all other bosses at end game to match those an look it would of been perfect if they kept it at that same speed, an tweak the end game speed of skills to keep it around the same speed.

Even if they make it slower for bots . Once people reach endgame . leveling services will start and it take like few hours to get an account ready for botting so in the end the solution they tried to make is just so bad that will make them lose all their player base in the first week of the league start.
