From the Barb Community: DO NOT NERF REND

https://i.imgur.com/IeFNijQ.jpg

This is a SS from my 122 S19 PTR clear.

Look at my number 137 for a 122 in 14:28
You can easily imagine the top being way over 130 and a few over 140.

Both Gasnick and Roidraged obviously didn’t play the PTR.
Here is your proof.

Stop treating Nataraja as a fool.
He knows what he is talking about!

The Chinese guys owned the PTR S19 leader board with 143 clear.

Like I said. You stopped at 40 because you already found the clears to fit your narrative. There’s been enough data posted that show the need for lamentation belt. Other people playing other classes agree the nerf wasn’t needed. Sader and Monk just got HUGE buffs in that 2nd round of PTR.

You picked one clear from 7 classes. That’s 7 Gr clears over 7000 clears. You’re showing us a sample size of .1%. Not even 1%. POINT ONE PERCENT. That’s your sample size and you’re trying to form some type of conclusion from that.

I grade you F for failing miserably in every aspect. I thought data was your job? You should know better.

Please, keep posting and proving that every little negative thing said about you is true. Keep blocking your profile. The only likes you receive on your posts are from your alt accounts.

I would even be fine with this nerf if they thought rend was too strong if they buffed WW itself to compensate. Or even make the belt do 100% instead of 200%. Rather not but its better than nothing. The sentiment of that last statement sums up barbs for the last few years…

But right now its no nerf, more like destruction.

Ah yes. Now my psychic readings are coming forth. I see numbers, many numbers. They come to me. Shhhhh I must focus.

I can’t imagine anything. I recall seeing 136 or 138. That’s just my memory though. Maybe there was 143. Who knows.

Like I stated, the S19 theme was extremely powerful and easy to play. I did push in the PTR. I got up to 124. I know EXACTLY how strong the S19 theme was and how to use it to clear elites.

If this happens it is absolutely ridiculous. Barbs have been shat on the entire course of D3, we finally see some amazing improvement and care towards our class and they just get rid of it? Unbelievable! The season effects are 1000 x more OP than Rend Barb. Rend Barb was fine. 10k paragon dude clearing a 140 isn’t broken. And if you think it is, fine, dial it back A Bit but don’t completely wreck it. Blizz made a huge deal on how Barbs were going to get some love, then turned their backs for zero reason. I was going to return for s19, if this happens I most likely will not. What’s the point? To fish for density/mob types? No thanks.

There are no proof of what Nataraja wrote about. Neither the fact the buff for the season was op.
Look at me now:
“Hey I cleared a 144 with a 1100 paragon Barbarian.”
See what I did there? The same as Nata.
Even though I cannot play atm. cause of a bug preventing me and no evidence…

Considering what happened in the most recent PTR. I don’t know who blizz is listening to. I feel like I have to correct all this false information or blizz will end up listening to the wrong people again.

[Yolo}TheEggman was the first to clear 136

The next day the Chinese guys with 120 + leg gems in all slots clear 143.

Hence Roidraged’s posts are all dead now.

“6k or 7k paragon cleared 136” lol you are foolish for using false information.

Oof, now I really know your motive. You played your card and it turns out I was right to call your bluff.

You did not read my posts, or you did and purposefully took my words out of context. The entire time I’ve ever spoken about barbs, EVER, has been about non-seasonal. It’s been stated many times that using seasonal information is wrong due to season themes. I’ve never once posted seasonal GR clears, especially not about S19.

Check yourself.

I’m not a “barb player”, but I’m upset about the nerf. Barb is ~6 times/12 grifts lower than wiz, it’s not good.

I’ve checked myself and you are full of it.
You didn’t play the ptr.

I provided some proof about the ptr S19 barb ldr board, and now you look foolish!

Great posts and hope that this decision will be reversed. Please, don’t respond to them. You know who. Don’t be provoked and lose control. Let their posts get buried, don’t bring them up with your responses. Nothing you’ll tell them will change a thing. Let them disappear from the thread.

You provided proof of your clear down at 137. I have no idea what the top 12 clears were and that’s the point.

You can’t “imagine” what clears are without being able to show evidence you are correct. Thus you can not use that information as reasoning for anything.

Learn how to research and formulate data before you come at me with some middle school crap like “use your imagination”. No, I don’t think I will.

I’m going to use facts and tracked clears that can be proven and seen.

Edit: I’m going to take peoples advice and ignore the trolls while I flag them. I’ve already proven my point multiple times.

And stop lying about playing the S19 PTR.

Again,
Anyone that played the barb in S19 PTR knows about the 143 clears.
You do not, cause you lied!

Lmao, you prooved nothing at all. Just posted a screenshot of clearing a 122 GR in PTR.

I’m not the one claiming someone cleared a 143 GR in season with 1500 paragon…

If you actually read my post you’ll notice I mentioned about the ridiculous OP S19 theme, yet you have the nerve to say I didn’t play PTR just because I don’t have a screnshot about being in the leaderboards or that proves me I played the PTR?

Well here I have 2 screenshots which clearly show I was in the PTR:

Screenshot 1
Screenshot 2

If you pay attention you’ll notice the Goat vendor from PTR in the upper right corner in the 2nd screenshot…

Where’s the proof? Where are the players knowing about this? … I recall an op killstreak. I recall people testing with either a large amount of paragon points or the op seasonal buff.
I recall chinese players botting away exploiting things. I cannot play the game atm. But yeah, I did a 143 with 1100 paragon points… See, that was easy.

Bro I was speed running 150s in 5 minutes with 10 paragon on the PTR…

This is why you look foolish. It’s more “thoughts and feelings” on what the class can do, with zero evidence to back it up.

What you THINK a class can do is great, but completely irrelevant to this discussion.

This seems to be what has caused most of the angst, too many people calling the WW/Rend changes OP, with zero evidence to back it up. All their evidence is anecdotal, and based on what they think it can do, but even on the PTR, they couldn’t do it.

It was just a hype before Blizzcon to sell more tickets and get nerfed after they were sold out!
Nice try, Blizz!
