Good work on the patch, well done balancing all around.

In other news, this thread makes me feel like I just drowned in a sea of tears. Something tells me we have an influx of players from D3 and TL2 in here.

Its kinda funny because as someone who's build takes a hit with this nerf (Molten Shell/Enduring Cry + CODT) I'm willing to take that hit now just because of how hilarious these tears are. So much crying over people who jumped the bandwagon for Flavor of the Month and fell off.

Indeed, it was so obviously overpowered, a nerf was to be expected of course. My only regret is not selling mine before the nerf was announced ;).

Either way, people managed to survive before the gem was implemented, I'm sure we'll be fine without(or with a weaker version of) it.

All I want is a BALANCED gem which does not jump from totaly overpowert to totaly underpowert and back again.

Is this so hard to get??

It was overpowert. Now it is underpowert ... as it seams realy hard to make it BALANCED!

Goodbye purity, you'll be missed.

it tells a lot how the exalted and divine supporters think everything is ok, because they have a huge stack of items/gems and can rebuild without much work.

alas, the vast majority of players wont have a, for example, lvl 1 enduring cry so they can adjust to the nerf, and will have to buy/grind for one.

Again, its not about the nerf per se, its about releasing something that you are not so sure about and the chain reaction it causes in a game such as PoE, where your real currency is the time you invest in the game.

I have no currency, my best unique is a 6S Carcass Jack that I wasted my exalteds to get. CWDT is a vital part of my build.

However I'm going to find ways to adjust. I'll level a new Molten Shell/Enduring Cry gem and start manually casting Flammability instead. If CWDT gets buffed slightly later on to make it more viable, I'll return to the old ways.

Tinfoil hat away however, Chris had said in the previous two weeks (on multiple occasions) there were nerfs coming to CWDT, if anyone didn't heed those warnings and dumped exalteds for Voll's various trinkets to attempt to abuse the broken build I have zero pity for them. They should've known this was coming.

Wow, that CoDT nerf is pretty huge and severely hurts players using it currently; those players *will not be able to use the link combo at all* until their CoDT gem is leveled massively, and at that point the combo wouldn't even be worth using thanks to CoDT needing a shitload of damage taken at higher levels.

CoDT is the only gem I know of that gets *worse* as you level it, and now we're being forced to level it anyway just to use it at all. That's pretty ridiculous, you could have at least buffed its later levels so that you don't need to sit around for 20 minutes waiting to take 2000+ damage.

This is pretty ridiculous... Why the hell did they show off the gem in the build of week #1, using it the same way we are using it now then??? HOW does that make any sense whatsoever? Please explain to me.. AM I missing something? You give us a gem, show us how to use it before it was even released, so we use it, and now you nerf it on us and tell us that we are using it wrong??? Seems like you couldn't come up with any other way to nerf people using it with discharge, so you just punish everyone.. Whats going on anymore GGG? You buff the %auras so that we have to choose defense or offense.. So if we pick defense we do NO damage at all since the monster hp in a party is SOOO high, and if we pick offense, CoDT is our ONLY source of reputable defense.. Man oh man, what gives anymore???

Mortal Conviction has been improved from 30% to 40% less aura mana reservation.

Thanks for this and the awesome patch!

Auto-discharge with life leech, multiple auto-curse, auto-charges - may be you all want to auto-run, auto-loot and auto-leveling?

That's what I'll tell all of you - F*CK YOU LAZY WHINERS!!!

that's not true. Sometimes (all the time!) you want to enfeeble/curse mobs BEFORE you engage. You want to get ECharges BEFORE you engage (meaning multiple gems needed or Ecry can't be linked to CwDT) so it wasn't that simple as you are trying to present it.

What?? Three CwDT in three 4L items solves all of that. You need just pull mobs and have good armor and res. There is no difference between one discharge with two charges or two discharge with one.

that CODT helped so much now it just got crapped on... no more solo play for me..

Edit: Rip purity, CODT, Poe

Everybody seems to think that the combined level of gems matters when it comes to codt...

Nowhere in that post do I see the word combined? Have I missed some information somewhere? Why is everybody talking about deleveling gems?

It simply states that you cannot have a level 20 gem supported by a level 1 gem, IE level your codt and you can still use it with all your high level gems... no?


Additionally why is everybody crying they will be dead? Do you not have any life leach? The gem doesn't proc when you have lost 2k hp, it procs when you have taken 2k damage... even if you have healed it off, in map runs I probably take between 100k and 1000k... I have been leveling my codt gem since I got it and have absolutely no issues with its proc rate whatsoever, infact I haven't even noticed a drop in its proc rate. (its now level 16)
