So why did i bought? So i can do a survilabity spec...Yea right.
I bet we gonna have a hotfix for VP very soon after the new patch to balance again the game.
And dont start with how many have that kind of weapons or gear cause GGG game supposed that is a hardcore game and not casual friendly.
That axe is a perfect example for why I don't play Standard and why Eternal orbs and Mirrors should be removed from the game. In my eyes that axe is not even legit. It's a dupe that should be deleted from the server. There should be one and only one owner. Period.
Agreed, it also kills the value of any "non-top tier" items as everyone saves for a mirror.
If you oneshot yourself on single reflect you doing too much DPS, thats it and thats why we have reflect and thats why they nerf VP. Easy.
By the way: All other nerfs of max resist had the same effect: less max ress, more DMG reflected. Pretty obvious that they dont want 100k DPS builds running arround, unkillable, and faceroll their content.
But I'm not a 100k dps glass cannon, I'm a 15k dps tank. With current leech I only get 1shot if its a huge mob on a -max, usually I'm smart enough to play around the reflect. But leech 2.0 means I'm taking tons of incoming damage with minimal incoming life. This has the potential to turn 30k dps into glass cannon, or it will bring about the death of AoE.
Which is probably the intent here.
Perfectly stated. The update invalidates AoE in so many situations.
About how leech will work after the patch. I assume (as we can't try things yet) that it will work similar to how critical strikes are accounted at the moment.
Like you cast 3 ice novas
First does 500 damage to 20 monsters (500x20=10000) you leech 8.8% of that (880)
Second does a critical hit and hits for 1000 to 15 monsters (1000x15=15000) you leech 8.8% of that (1320)
Third does 500 damage to 5 monsters (500x5=2500) you leech 8.8% of that (220)
Your maximun life is 1000 so you can only recover 200 hp per second.
Assuming you cast 1 nova each second, you would regenerate 200 out of 880 (680 remaining), then start leeching from the 1320 of the second hit, and when the third nova hit, ignores that leech ammount and keeps recovering life from the 1320 ammount until its exhausted, replaced by a higher leech or you reach max hp.
Sorry for the wall of text, but that's what I assume leech will look after the patch, instead of queuing all the leeched life until it caps or gets exhausted.
My concern is whether we can test the new changes somehow before commiting the points. I run discharge ES GR VAAL PACT. I dont want to commit 100 points only to find out my build char is completely inept now.
You can never test the changes so it's really dumb in the end becouse you never know if the new build will work of if you have to get a ton of regrets, but your build is probably useless becouse Vaal nerf
Believe in the math young one.
My math is bad, help me out here. Lets say i'm doing 30,000 dmg to 20 mobs at once thats 600k damage with 8% life leech (which is now reduced by 60% to 4.8%) That's 28,000 ES leeched.

Yes, and honestly, without Eternals, the dang thing probably would not even exist in the first place.
