Just played a fire aura paladin and all they need to do is improve it’s salvation synergy from 10 to 15%. That way, when both HF and RF are both maxed, somewhere in mid-late NM, the skill will continue to improve to a level more sustanaible in hell (won’t be powerfull but it’ll go from average to good).
Same can be said for thnder storm, increase both it’s damage and it’s rate by ~20%. Again, it won’t be powerfull but now it’s average at best.
And so on…
I’m not interested to improve skills that peoples use. It’s the one no one use because they are weak that interest me.
But they globally did a good job in 2.4 on that matter. We now see more different builds (fire druid, summoner druid, etc.). Hope Blizzard will do the same in 2.6.
The GAME - Yes: Diablo 2 - Yes - the 20+ YEAR Old Game - Has Never. Ever. Been. Balanced.
It was not even DESIGNED to be Balanced - I mean that’s so blatantly obvious and apparent…
The game is what it is.
Go elsewhere if you want your perfect game - Best of Luck FINDING A Perfect Game.
I’m not even stating an opinion.
LTR please.
Have all the opinions you want - not my fault they’re atrocious and pulled out of box of moldy cracker jack’s.
You’re mentally broken. No nerfs are coming. Help blizz push out more updates like 2.4 while not fixing/buffing anything for sorcs & pallys like they did last year.
I dont think you get that 99% of the player base don’t want the game harder, just more enjoyable. You make it sound like we all play on hardcore non-exp ladder which is by far 1000 x more difficult to beat than any form of gameplay on expansion. Nearly everyone is playing on expansion softcore… What does that tell you??
I’m not saying you’re delusional for thinking there are forum rules, nah that’s just cry baby stuff. You’re delusional for thinking sorcs and pallys are ever getting nerfs.
Must have hit a nerve - don’t want your javazon nerfed? I’m sorry.
But anyway, all I’m saying is IF you want to balance the game, then don’t buff characters to current S-tier level. Given the choice out of the two, I’d rather classes not be balanced at all than all classes finding the game as easy as current S-tier builds.
My Java was a side project.
Yes I enjoyed it. Haven’t played for over a week.
Also - I haven’t played this game for 3 years.
I could care less who’s Barbie Doll is prettiest, fastest or worth the most HR’s or FG or - I have no stake in “Don’t take away my toy”.
I’m not beholden to any particular class or build.
I AM beholden to this game - As it IS.
I choose to play whatever I want, whenever I want, however I want.
Taking away my freedom of choice for yours and others desire for a different game is what “hits a nerve”.
The prattling and droning is nauseating.
I accept D2 as is.
Do I agree with everything? Never have, never will - but shockingly I, as well as many others, cope. We still find enjoyment and don’t come to the forums and screech for nerfs.
otoh -
Sometimes people suggest something that will help a class, classes or builds - I like that.
Dowgrading though? Something that’s been here for literally EVER?
Why?
You just like to incite arguments for the sake of it? Likely…
You just look for the next person to try to “trigger” - yep seen it. You like that. I can tell. Cute.
Look m8 - I’m nobody special in-game. Just a player…
I enjoy this game - once again - as designed.
Want to bring Builds ? I’m 100% behind that.
Want to lash out wildly, without direction like some rabid … yea. No.
Cool your jets and play the game.
This is very weird thread:
Barbs are bad - some even say worst…
Druids struggle - if I recall correctly Dudus are second most popular speedrun class (maybe tied with sin)
Apparently if someone asks for buffs it is fine, but if someone asks for nerfs it means he claims to be authority…
Also as every build should be viable I want my no skill points used naked Necro to be as strong as Java, Sorc and Din together…
Weird how you think that, and yet it’s not. Where in the absolute crap stick are you getting your info? It’s BIS only for casters, because of the +2. WITHOUT the teleport. That should tell you something however, for anything related to physical at all, it’s horrid, and there’s no counterpart even CLOSE, and CERTAINLY not a physical counter part that also offers teleport, and an OFFSET of FCR to make up the difference.
It’s a poor design. I understand you want to maintain the status quo because you like either one of your 3 classes, but the rest of the game wants to be able to keep up.
It should’ve been applied like this from the start when sunders were introduced. But either way 2.6 still won’t change anything, sorcs & pallys will continue to dominate. We are now 17 months into the game and despite all the cry baby threads about enigma, sorcs, teleport, paladins, grief what has changed??? People need to give up on trying to bring down sorcs & pallys and help these interns at blizz figure out ways to make the other 5 classes more enjoyable to play.
? I’m 100% behind that.
