Maybe if you have best in slot gear farmed by caster builds (but they have Infinity at this point so no immunity problem lol) and still most people agree melee is much worse overall. Try playing Zealer from 0 to hell. You’ll hit a wall and switch to caster build.
D2 is definitely not balanced. Sorceress is the fastest speedrun class so I don’t know what slow down you talk about. Even with immunities casters are best so it just added annoying gameplay of skipping mobs instead of fighting them.
Spamming 1 skill from a distance caster logic doesn’t work with melee. To be successful with melee requires a higher cognitive function than with a caster i.e., it’s not the character, but the person playing the character. Melee paladins can kill anything and everything in hell with weak gear rather easily. Casters can’t.
I like this idea as a whole. Very cool. This is what happens when you have open discussions about that game
Yeah it’s very nice to be able to talk about how we see ways the game can become better without having people drenched in nostalgia attack and insult us for doing so haha
Ps: Dave, do you want widespread immunities in Diablo 4?
Cool to see a streamer on the forums checking out this part of community! It’s all just ideas and brainstorming. I admit I was more on purists side when D2R released but I can see my mind changing on some things after playing for a while.
I don’t know if my ideas break the game or not so it’s good to have other people think about it. At the end it’s up to the devs what they do with the game and we can just pray they do a good job.
Unless he goes live on stream and shows himself logging into this exact account, 99.9% chance this is Seks under yet another alias trolling the forums.
Such low levels to use a streamers name to push more of his agenda.
Yeah I’ve grown to like DB more with time
Especially since I got kicked from Llama discord for saying “it would be nice if Llama was more active with his community like Dbrunski is, been there for a month and never saw him once here” hahaha
I’ve heard a bunch of bad things about D2R and discord. The worst was admins banning people who stand against real money trades and websites.
Oh boy, the anti-change atmosphere there is even worse than here
Since it’s auto moderated, they feel free to insult you, but don’t you insult them, it like insulting the hive mind haha
But that’s the kind of phenomenon that happens when you don’t actively improve the game, people that want a better game just leave because nothing is done, leaving a high concentration of purists whom identity is the game
Next time im live on twitch ask me to post on this forum. And I will
Don’t waste your energy on him
He has IDS
“Improvements derangement syndrome”
He truly lives in another reality where purists are the majority and most people love immunity mechanics
Sure, and if its true, I will apologize.
Haha, anyone with a brain would search my posts and see the exact opposite. I am 100% pro improvements to D2R. Key word there, D2R. What I am not, is what you are, DGS. “Different Game Syndrome” a quick search to any of your zillion threads and posts confirm this.
Thankfully the devs do not listen to you. I truly hope they allow mod support one day and you can scurry off to your fantasy world and play the different game that you desperately want.
And yet would you have said the same in 1.09 if somebody pitched you the 1.10 changes?
The game’s core design is to evolve and improve
Absolutely. A far cry from what you want. You want a different game entirely.
Personally I’d keep the immunities on all mobs…
Instead I’d:
Pretty much. I mean I don’t even really touch the new 85 areas any more than any other areas. Fire Druid actually in a pretty good spot atm. Can take it pretty much anyway without immunity issues. Only issues it honestly faces is fire/physical immunes… which you just skip anyway. Only real problems with the build are Moon Lords (if you don’t have Infinity) and Wave 5 Baal being slow.
I mean it’s not amazing if you are one of those weird people that insist viable builds MUST be able to 2 minute clear P8 CS… but it can farm everywhere… (including CS) on P1 with no issues. Does it in a bit under 4m… which isn’t great… but if you like the build it’s not terrible.
Then the problem with using fire Druid as an example for immunity not being that bad is that you now have to make all skills dual element then
Snakes and ladders would be the exact same game play with out snakes as there is no strategy in that game. it would look different but the winner would still be who ever rolled the luckiest. also would it surprise you to know the game did not always have snakes and ladders it used to only have snakes. it was originally designed to teach kids about sin and leading a life with out it. the snakes represented the devil and sin and as there is no easy path to a pure life no ladder were in the game.
Yeah i would probably agree with this.
I didnt know any of that, that is interesting stuff.
