In my opinion, these changes are good, and i know there are some that don't agree on this or will hate me for this.

I see some players crying about Assassin being nerfed to the ground or some shit. Playing DoT builds was the job of the Trickster anyway, or, maybe Pathfinder for the chaos/poison. And, a nerf to the movement speed, in exchange for survivability buff. As well, a bit of buff to the elusive (50% inc effect instead of 25%). This class was made to be played for the crit, not for the DoT based builds.

Champion, is not nerfed, if we talk about the Fortify stuff, it was slightly changed, those minor points leading to the perma Fortify node, that used to grant "Attack damage", now granting "Effect of Fortify" are way better (instead of getting 20% less damage taken you get 21.5 or 22%). The impale nodes got nerfed, but nah, can't do nothing about it, as impale was kinda strong, and will still be, but you need more gear to make it work.

For those who say, Juggernaut or Slayer got nerfed, I must say, you're kinda wrong. They got buffed.
Having the perma leech on Slayer on a 2 points it's pretty good.
Undeniable from Jugg, got buffed, you get a lot more accuracy now in the end, and, as well as having more attack speed than before.

Necromancer ascendancy, got a bit of a nerf, not that much of a deal, anyway. The spectres, having their level reduced, i know, it's a big deal, but, it was needed, as minions were strong anyways.

Gladiator, kind of a mixed bag tbh, i won't say nothing here, except a nerf to the bleeding damage. But who was playing bleed with a Gladiator when you had Champion for a better defence.

Raider, neither a nerf nor a buff.

Hierophant, that node giving +4 to minimum endu and power charges is pretty good, and the change to "Ritual of Awakening" where you could summon two totems instead of one, is not a big deal, you already have the support gem.

And now, won't talk anymore about those changes as you get the point.

Guys, don't cry because your build got nerfed or shit like that. Find a way to build around it.
Anyway, these changes had to happen eventually.


P.S: sorry if I had some spelling errors, my english is not that good.
