Kaom's heart has been overnerfed

You're repeating yourself like a parrot for absolutely no reason.
Re-read (read?) my post again.

That ~80 ES doesn't make your overall ES from gear equal zero.

I'll ask this again, as you've completely ignored this:
- "How exactly is life easier to stack than ES?"


What the hell does that INT-ES relation has to do with what I've wrote???

I have answered this several times. This is what where you're not picking up what I'm putting down.

The ONLY way to raise BASE ES is via GEAR. You CANNOT raise it with the skill tree.
This factor alone makes HP significantly easier to raise than ES.

For example, my 86 character is int/ES based and in ALL magic find gear, INCLUDING a shavs, I have 3669 ES. Yet at the same time, I have 1000 HP. I have ZERO HP nodes. I have 630 Int.

This is because you gain base strength and HP values from the skill tree and leveling. You CANNOT do this with ES.

I'm done. I'm done, I'm done.
That doesn't mean it's easier, it's just different to stack.

While it's maximum to get 79-109 life on gear (+ Kaoms and The Belly), it's possible to reach 1k+ ES on chest, 600+ ES on shield, 500+ ES on helmet, 300+ ES on boots, etc. etc.

So what the hell are you trying to prove here?

Define easier, because that's certainly not the right word for what you're trying here.


Take a deep breath and learn how to discuss.
Those caps locked things are making you look like a 10 year old.
Stacking life is not as gear-dependant as stacking ES is, therefore it's easyer to play a life based because you don't need gear to switch ( you need to switch, first of all ) to CI/ES buffer when you have enough gear only.

Es is more gear dependent, that's always been like that, and acquiring gear it's not easy for everyone. If you start fresh, you are eventually gonna run in quite many problems by building a CI char and you won't even know exactly when you'll be able to switch, that will make the game much more difficult at some point.
SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.
I don't know...

Getting life on gear is done by a little amount on every piece and by every level, but getting ES is done by getting a lot more per piece.

The CI is a different story, planning CI change is a part of alternate to life buffer.

Can agree that would be the easier part of life - ES stacking.
The thing everybody seems to fail to mention: acquiring life on gear does not preclude the acquisition of damage mitigation; acquiring comparable ES on gear comes at the expense of damage mitigation.

On the other hand, granite flasks and IR--eroding the distinction between the two. So there's that.

None of which has anything to do with Kaoms being perfectly fine, and not in need of a buff. 6L rares should be better than Kaoms, and now they are.

Hi

GGG has a bad case of overnerfing.

Kaoms was the item of my dreams when I joined in CB, the driving force of playing this game for me was'' one day I will find a KAOM's 1K LIFE BIATCHES!'' Now its a measly 500 life on a shitty def chest, WTF GGG! I will stick with my poor mans Kaoms, belly of the beast. Thank Fucking God this game dropped my true favorite unique, LONG LIVE BRO LAZ:

So sad to see GGG over nerfing had a field day with this item.

cheers

The shav's nerf was meaningless. Dropping a few hundred ES means literally nothing, and repeating over and over and over "you can only get base ES from gear" doesn't change that. Unless you already had perfect ES gear, you can just pick up the extra 80 ES on your shield/helm/belt/gloves/boots. Nobody uses a shavs anyways - legacy or otherwise - if their goal is to just stack maximum ES.

You know "easier" to stack doesn't mean it's better.

HP is "easier" to stack because you start with a base HP and just need +hp from gear were ES requires an entire tree/exact gear setup.

We all know the advantages of ES over HP if you choose to do it as well as stuff like the low life builds, CI builds and building able to stack MF sky high.

On topic, I need kaom's heart can use a better design somehow to make it fit along with the eva version in the game like shav.
