Yeah. This is what makes me really sad. Before greater rifts were even a thing I was running Well of Souls and having a complete blast. It was like playing with a soul machine gun. I was so excited to see this dagger come into play but like I said before, the dagger alone isnt enough to make the skill viable as a primary damage dealer. This is a complete shame seeing how every other Decay skill is either a must have debuff or primary damage dealer.Quote from MeatHeadMikhail»
I think it's usable for caster Helltooth due to the mana regen, but that's about it.
If spirit barrage was only included in Helltooth or something then the skill would be viable again. Think of the gameplay mechanics that would open up if Phantasm and Phlebotomize were viable skill choices. You would see WD's stacking soul aoe's on mobs or using the fire-and-forget version rune to add extra dps while channeling another skill.
MeatHead your one of the more vocal WD players on the forums. Maybe you could make a video talking about this and other under used skills so maybe Blizz can make some adjustments before the patch goes live? Voo's, as it is right now, just seems like a wasted opportunity.

if you want an ARPG for hardcore go play Darksouls, Diablo was not a hardcore ARPG...not 1 or 2. They have always been about drudgery and repetition. who ever pushes the button the longest wins basically. which is why you had insanely simple bot programs that could clear all of Diablo 1 and 2 without any human need....cause it is not hardcore, it is mindless repetition....

Agreed PatriotPunk, how dare he even remotely think to play differently and have fun in a game instead of focusing purely on maximizing every single possible factor (minus the fun bit cause that doesnt matter, this is a game we are talking bout, that is serious business)

You people claiming that because money is involved so things are controlled, or that sense RMAH is there of course they control the loot drops, and the dozen other excuses you toss out for why things are how they are, you need to just stop.
Go back to a school, take a basic class on probability, hell just a basic math class teaching % chances... maybe then you will understand that killing more does not equal increased chance...
every single mob has the exact same fixed % chance to drop an item... killing 1 or killing 5000 does not change that per creature, the probability of getting an item increases based upon the number of kills but that does not lock in an item, since according to probability a diamond will instantly move 5 feet given enough time.
So please, stop shouting "its blizzards fault i get crappy loot" just cause you are too ignorant to understand the truth of the matter.

those who post saying they are quitting and then proceed to bitch and whine about the game and spout their opinions as facts are quite sad. And if you are using the excuse they are unable to be constructive so that is not their fault, then you are wrong. If they never paid enough attention in school to learn how to properly explain their positions with words then their opinions are borderline useless since they bring no possible benefit to the table, they do not contribute a single ounce to the situation.
You seem just rather eager to insult anyone that enjoys the game, or in anyway defends their opinion of the game yet support those that blindly insult and degrade the game. Makes little sense to me personally. Those that dislike the game is fine,but have an idea how to improve it, those that like the game, be honest since it does have flaws.
(And oh i am not a basement dweller, nor do i hate my life or this game... unlike you and seemingly so many others on these forums I actually have a well enjoyed life style and do not live in one extreme or another)

Left Click - Rain of Toads
Right click - Acid Cloud (lob blob rune)
1-zombie dogs (fire rune)
2 - Garg (bruiser rune since they no longer proc stuff)
3 - sacrifice (next of kin rune, can get 2-3 sac's before having to respawn dogs fully, really burns through the elites)
4 - Corpse spider (spider queen rune, nice dmg on her now, can fire and forget it.)
Passives:
Jungle Fort
Blood Ritual
Zombie handler
I got 650-700 resists with 37k hp and 30k dps... it is pretty easy to just plug through things with all the pets keeping the attention. When you come up on a pack you just let the dogs and garg gather them, do a few sacrifices till dogs are gone, then respawn them and dump on them with acid cloud... they die pretty quickly then.
And rain of toads works great with the whole working behind the walls from Waller units and etc... generally fun build that does great with just a little LoH and Life steal (375 LoH and 3% Life steal for me and i can tank 2-3 phase beasts np)

Yes, dumb game... as in not a life altering experience that should cause such hate for a human being. If you can become so hateful just because some one made a game that was not to your exact specifications then you have the problems, not them.
There is no trolling, or irony in my statement. There is utter stupidity in your stance that it is acceptable to verbally attack a man for making a game you did not like, for insulting and degrading a person just cause the game he made was not the game you wanted...
And seriously, if anyone is trolling it would be you... 7 posts, and all designed to inflame and annoy...
