Why the change to Galvanic Shards? It wasn't broken or overpowered, it was just the best FEELING crossbow skill. Yall hyped crossbows with one of the skills being an auto shotgun but yall get rid of that why? because its too fun? because all the other crossbow skills feel awful for clearing in comparison? because you dont have to press 3 buttons to clear white mobs? Seriously what gives?
Hardly anyone was touching crossbows in favor of spears or bows as well. Making it single shot is a confusing one, even if it is easier to reload now.


They did the same to Siege Cascade. The only thing that made it a viable skill was increasing AOE and projectile speed.

Rapid Shot - "reaching Maximum Heat prevents you from using the skill for 10 seconds."

You just killed my all time favorite build and killed all my hype for this season despite the plethora of other positive changes here.

PLEASE REVERT THIS!
"we buffed all the classes..." and killed everything you played.

They killed Rapid Shot when they nerfed the Heralds in .2.0
Now they're making you constantly spend down time lobbing grenades that take forever to explode in order to even use Rapid Shot.
wow they really dont want rapid shot to be a primary skill, really increasing that build variety by hard-locking out viability

Wonder if they consider destroying potential builds when reworking skills to force more intractability between them instead of just making a new skill to serve the same purpose.

I don't care what anyone says; I'm very excited for this patch.
The asynchronous trade sounds great.
Better crafting options? Heck yeah!
Abyss!
Multiple support copies, finally...

We have a long way to go, so I'm not at all worried about new classes yet.
Closed Beta/Alpha Tester back after a 10-year hiatus.
First in the credits!

No mention of the numerous bugs that exist in crossbows
Cool.
One step closer to the Release.

1.0 waiting room :)
Sad but true. They seem obsessed with forcing you into "combo gameplay". They really do not want any one button builds. :'(
geez, ontop of magma barrier being nerfed into the ground with an 8 second cd
the damage now scales with EVASION on shield??
