So Wd is the dps meta this patch? Dont really want to go WD since I went Wd last season.

Of course it matters. Support roles are boring. This is a video game, the main criteria is fun. It's more fun playing a dps role.

Too small sample size.

If they remove the stupid hardcore achieves it will be fine. No one wants to play turtle mode until we out gear content

LoN needed a nerf but 100% is too small.

Why would anyone use LoN over Focus and Restraint? Focus and restraint are two separate 50% multiplicative bonuses which is a net 125% gain from the rings. Plus, you're still able to use the high mulplitiers from 6 set bonuses with focus and restraint.

Not a fan of brackets. I think having a competitive rift mode ( in which you go for leaderboard rankings) where paragon is capped after 800 is the best solution. People with high paragon would still enjoy their benefits out side of the leaderboard competitions but if they wish to compete, it equalizes the field.

LOL that bot is pretty efficient. Never seen a bot play until now.

I don't get why they dont just bring the chinese system over here of micro transactions for stash space. I'd gladly pay for it. Win win for them too as they would gain a small income which would further drive development.

60 solo is easy. Hardest part about the final journey is finding someone to powerlevel you in hardcore. It's stupid that they require you to play a different mode.

If it's for the HF exploit, it's likely just a suspension until they can rollback the account. We all know he bots though, so hopefully perma.

A few reasons.

1. Barbs/monks/saders have a 30% innate damage reduction.

2. Armor and all resists are treated the same way in damage reduction calculations. Armor is just all resists. It calculates your total mitigation by multiplicatively applying your reduction from all resists and armor (among other modifiers as well that reduce damage). Your total mitigation from armor and resists is 1- ((1-armor reduction)(1-resists reduction)). Hover over your armor and resists values to find the damage reduction from each and apply it to the equation, you'll see that your barb has a higher damage mitigation value.

3. You're also healing a lot more with the barb with blood funnel.

4. Waste set has 40% reduction when ww.

Was bound to happen. It was way over powered to be immune to damage 95% of the time when you can just perma seven strike. The build will be fine. It's a slight dps nerf as you wont be able to seven strike as much. The build was op to begin with so we'll see how it pans out.

The people that are ok with the current system are people that dont play much and/or not competitive. The problem is, you feel compelled you have to do mindless speed runs all day, every day, to keep up and be competitive. I'd rather spend my time pushing higher GRs, solo and group, but you can't do that without spending 95% of your in game time doing speed runs.

Great post bagstone. Unfortunately, this issue likely wont be addressed until the expansion which would be pretty much reset everyone. They'll likely make changes to the paragon system then.

I really don't like the current implementation at all. Im p1100 on seasons and every time I log on, I feel like I'm wasting my time if I don't do speed runs. I haven't been playing much lately, and I just see myself slipping further back behind people.

WW alternates, so yes it matters.
