Some original perks got enhanced

Some new perks got added based on the fire theme and the draconic name of it, Hydra being the closest “dragon” skill in the game

Played with it for a couple hours on my reworked vengeance, which now also buff the elemental damage on the weapons, and reworked synergies to affinities and it feels really great and thrilling to play a 2H spear paladin thats viable

20 or 30 lvl Hydra 100 200 300 400 500 or even 800 Fire DMG all dont matter, without FMastery its still crap.

Now You can see why I posted to add new unique Charms with +Masteries :smiley:

And survey say…
“ It’s not crap without fire mastery and you’re just talking nonsense”

Wow it’s crazy what happens to mandatory/Op skills when the game is reworked and balanced properly

oSkills are junk without their synergy bonuses. The only ones that work are skills that don’t rely on synergy or scale with weapons, like Whirlwind. I get that you have a laundry list of changes to the game that makes your opinions make sense, but you never present them altogether and just expect others to read your mind based on the one or two ideas that you’ve presented.

You present this weapon upgrade idea and then talk about how well it works with an also reworked Vengeance skill. Compile your full thoughts so people can understand your point of view.

Anyway, adding and upgrading affixes on upgraded gear is a good idea.

This.
We already have Hydra available on Dragonscale as a lvl 10 oskill ( = spammable, not relying on random procs), yet I’ve yet to see such a build in game.
According to Maxroll calc, such a build even with BiS gear does less than 1/10 damage of a proper Hydra sorc build.
