Man,

Kastmar...
Do you have this much trouble coping with unexpected loss IRL?
If so I feel sorry for those around you.

GGG please ignore these children's salty, salty tears and thankyou for balancing what was a long standing problem in the game. CoC cancer.

Yes I have hundreds exalts worth of gear in standard... No I dont cry when anything I use gets a nerf... I move on

Kastmar please stop complaining every single page about the same things. If you didnt post the number of pages would probably be at like 25. LOL

Ones you will be in situation as I'm now. I have no doubt about it. Some1 will laugh at you then. You will invest lot of time to build which will be killed.

About me. There is plenty another games. And I will rather pay monthly fee for stable game where I can do my build to max. without fear of constantly nerfing. I will stay on forum to laugh on next nerf.

Going to leave my two cents (maybe more):
I don’t get all the hate against those who spent 100ex on a build and pushed it to the limit or even copied a guide, since they all probably started naked laying on the zombie infested beach, right?…and then those replies: “I’m so good and smart that I do Uber with white equipment and I’m always top ten on the ladder, don’t need fotm gear/build”, well good for u buddies, but why are you happy on seeing someone else’s build destroyed? I just, don’t get it…
In my case I had a mjolner jugger, totally pushed it to the limit, made it work with RF without ROP or Saffells, took tons of min-max, looking for the right uber enchant, the right jewels, until it was working like a Swiss clock, it was OP as fuck, but hell, it was well deserved, didn’t follow any guide or anything (don’t need to be super smart to realize the sync), and now it’s gone, it surely could have used a nerf, but shouldn’t have been completely obliterated, LOL. In any case, I really enjoyed making the build and I’m glad I was able to enjoy a legacy mjolner for over +-2yrs, so no complains, just a bittersweet flavor.

Also GGG, regarding all the performance improvements, are you sure your only performance improvement wasn’t just cutting off the most hardware demanding skills/mechanics in game? LOL. So many improvements yet no skills left to test those out :P

haha good point

look at all the responses from our amazing game nerfers c how much they care?!? good to kno they wont respond or take away some of the nerfs.....

ffs...where is the Ctrl+Click fix to move items for Guild Stash tabs. Is it there, but not listed in the patch notes? Was this not promised in 2.4?

Seriously plodd why did you choose manly Berserker pic as avatar when simple upload of vagina pic would suit you so much better

Because
No.1 I play a berserker as my main.
No.2 There are no vagina avatars.
No.3 If there were (see No.2) they would be removed due to complaints from the feminist movement and liberal minded fuckwits the same as the globe girls were.

Does that answer your question.

Frankly i'm surprised you couldn't come to at least one of those conclusions all by yourself, although I am starting to realise you don't have to much going on upstairs.

Blade Vortex now has a stack limit of 20 (down from 50). It now deals 63% more damage at level 20. The number of hits per second causes substantial performance problems. The skill was also deemed too strong against bosses.

RIP Blade Vortex! Still no money support to GGG.

So guys how much is the Reach being nerfed? will it be still playable, i mean uber viable or high tier red maps viable? Atlas viable? and i am not talking about the 20% expert players who played all builds and know each boss inside out, i mean us the rest normal beings :}}.
My question is simple, is it still worth a to play the Reach build or not? has it been destroyed by the nerf (btw i am talking about the AssReacher from ziggyD).
I also dont get the "legacy" part, how it will be legacy? more damage? chaos or phys?

Reach bow was never uber apable. Now hype, but the very first price that bow were 1-2 chaos
that is real value. a shitty 300 pdps non crit bow.

and all are crying ;)

Though I will not be harsh about it, I do agree with what alot of players here are saying.

Mostly all skills/builds that were nerfed by GGG deserved to be nerfed, however, GGG totally destroyed the mechanics behind some of those skills/builds. GGG should have balanced these skills, and still have allowed them to be viable.

Though I'm not playing any of the destroyed skills/builds at the moment(or last league), I personally am hoping GGG does take another look at what they did, and actually balance these skills/builds to be viable still. Preferably before this goes live.

PS: GGG, you forgot to buff dual strike :D:P

reach of the council still will be a very god bow, but below of a very good crafted harbinger and now harder to find due to less coins drops . blade vortex seems will be much better for clear maps but worse with bosses, still a good build i think.

My nerfed builds. All my own created never copied. All of those build cost a fortune and most important lot of TIME!!!! to build it and save currency.

1. Incinerate nerf. I had low life with Shavronne's Wrappings cost me 70ex to buy 6L long time ago.
2. Bino knife build with huge life regeneration.
3. Mjolner (legacy) got it 2 weeks ago. (all build gear +/- 100ex)

What I don't get, WHY they introduce unique items without testing. So they have to nerf it after while, when players base show them how stupid they are.

First off, chances are that a couple thousand players use items and mechanics in ways that a developer may not have had in mind during design and testing. That's got nothing to do with being incompetent, it's merely an oversight in a majority of cases. If anything, GGG is at fault for not nerfing these items/builds earlier, via hotfix or something along those lines. At the end of the day: Errare humanum est. Period.

When Bino's was made, poison support gems did not exist. So, obviously after they added poison mechanics to the game, a nerf to the item was necessary, and the poison prolif still is pretty strong if used with a properly designed build. A regen of +5k per second is OP, so it gets nerfed, no further elaboration required.

Second off, your LL incinerate build should still be pretty strong with a couple modifications and a proper curse setup. Other than that, there are plenty other skills to use which benefit greatly from going LL and having more auras than you normally would have. EZ-PZ, no reason to go all misty eyed. Nerfing a skill-gem does not make your gear less valuable.

Third off, dude, seriously, nobody, and I mean literally nobody cares how many exalteds you invested into a build, let alone that 100 ex not necessarily a high amount of currency. This game revolves around its leagues. Leagues matter, because that's where the new content is at, thus that's where the money is at, so the game needs to be balanced around the leagues. Items like Mjolner merely take collateral damage for obvious reasons. Deal with it.

As much as I can understand your frustration: Do you actually realize that your ever returning complaints are nigh insufferable? OK, you put in work for your builds, just like everybody else. Seriously, a lot of people have their builds in standard that they keep investing in time after time after time, league after league.

That being said, you're not a special snowflake for running a 100-ex build, on the contrary, you're one out of many, you're just another face in the crowd. With that in mind I find it very questionable that you put other people down by telling them they must have had a 20c-build, so their opinion is obviously less important than yours is. Well, aren't we feeling entitled today?

You chose to do create builds that abuse mechanics or overpowered skills in a multiplayer online ARPG in which skills rise and fall time and time again. It was your very own choice to put that much effort into these builds, while you should have known all the time that they might get nerfed or modified in some way shape or form in the future. Don't pretend you didn't see it coming. After playing these builds you know how gamebreaking they were. That's why you made them: You wanted a gamebreaking OP build, you played it, you've had your fun, now learn to let go, and create something new.
