Probably not. Arch couldn’t stay alive with his CoE/Zei setup without pouring a ton of resources into defense- including stuff that now, with Tribes being a separate multiplier, will be much more valuable.
CoE is 1.57x from CoE, 1.5x from Furnace
Aughild is 1.3x from A2, 1.8x from Furnace + A3 (+50% and + 30%)
Don’t know, but I sure hope the blue affix is nowhere to be found!
I have a feeling they arent going to give legacy 2Hers the bonus. I looked at my hardcore vault for the first time in years when the season ended and it was full of old items that didn’t change after they changed them. Dawn, The Barber, mess. reaver, etc. I even found a belt that gave 10% elite damage bonus. I think it’s a WD item now. Anyhoo, I’m not holding my breath.
I think typically the only ones that have changed were to “nerf” something seen as too powerful or otherwise having unintended consequences. When the new legendary power is buffed, I thought you pretty much always had to farm new to get the new power, although I know there was some interaction where sometimes blue text was added at the previous maximum or something?
At least they’ve confirmed that you won’t need to try to stack legacy items with current items in the 11/6 updated Season 22 blog:
Fixed legacy items stacking with the new items: Gundo Gear, Blade of the Tribes, Scrimshaw, Belt of the Trove, Mortal Drama, Winter Flurry, Wizardspike, Etched Sigil, and Fragment of Destiny.
Nope. They do not update the blade of the tribes. Nor do they stack (derp). It uses the lesser if you cube it. Luckily I have a few furnaces laying around. Seems fun! 110 in like 5 minutes.
Already salvaged all my 5 primals (for all cases)
Fortunately, I kept the same amount of primal furnaces
(Took +10% Dmg / +10% CDR / (+10% Elite Dmg - got it from the 1st roll (usually it’s a ‘10-mil try’) - left it for now, later will replace it with +24% AD))
I can do a 120 pretty reliably now. Not having that 4th cube slot kind of slows you down. I can get to the RG on 126 but there’s no way I can kill it w/o a pylon in time. Still fun though…
I have another really good spec. I’m pretty sure it’s an oldie but a goodie. It’s 5 MOTE, 3 IK (wpn, belt and another piece) with a RoRG cubed. You get perma zerker and call of ancients. It’s not for high-tier pushing, but it’s awesome for everyday playing. You can either use SS or boulder toss for your rage dumps. Then rings focus/restraint and a flavor of time.
as an update.
IBs is just worse unfortunately. I dunno how many tiers but I suspect 3-4.
Got no real weapon to push with. that’s pretty bad that’s why I tried IBs.
It’s easier with a low roll normal Furnace than with augmented pretty good stat IBs to clear 125.
In fact I cleared 125 two times in a row with that trash Furnace and needed to fish for a good map with IBs.
Yes ptr blade
With that blade maybe 145~147 possible
Now blade with BOM maybe 142 possible i think
I am not sure because it is still testing. I have to play a lot on the weekend.
