I’m glad I didn’t expect much from the “big balance patch”.
Also, there’s no mention about SSF or paragon cap.

Finally! How long has the past day dragged on! :slightly_smiling_face:

Not yet, anyway. We’ll see what happens when Season 30 goes live.

They probably don’t want everyone focused on that instead of testing the changes… That is if paragon caps are becoming permanent for ladder only… (Which I highly suspect they will be.)

Changes to 19 sets. Compared to the average it’s substantial.

If I’m reading correctly, the permanent CC immunity seems to remain. That’s disappointing.

Also way smaller amount of balance changes than expected would suggest there will more patches in the future.

Many top builds got nerfs. TR Meteor, Trag’Oul Nova, Marauder. I approve.

Still less than necessary to achieve proper balancing.

I did not expect anything major so I am not disappointed. Up next is maintenance mode.

Sure, but that would entail pretty much revamping the entire item pool.

You may want to double check the preview. I think that I found several statements where the words “increase” or “decrease” was used, but the actual numbers went in the opposite direction.

Still we’ll have to craft Staff of Herding, I guess (no mention of removing this requirement)

Can’t have the WD competing with the other classes… Come on!

WD is designated mat farming class only. Duh.

Yeah, saw that too. Zuni nerf can be acceptable but Mundu and Arachyr certainly didn’t need nerfing.

Nerfing WD sets is just so unnecessary. They are not one button builds, like most class builds, so I don’t realy get it. It’s not that esay to push out the max potential from these builds.

Me too, only thing I miss is haveing the Sentry buff up between maps.

Lmao a whole bunch of nerfs and changes to a few sets numerically? You truly are the most out of touch, foolish, obsolete company in gaming. I relish your downfall.
