No it is not!
It changes the way we can handle different builds and variety.
Don’t be foolish…S19 was VERY CRAZY and they know it for sure, this is a theme, slightly compared to the RORG-Season i would say.
I could imagine, we will see results in that range.
The only thing, that is weird to me…the sets.
@Nevalistis
Did you fix the internal bug that came with the interaction with Spirit Barrage?
If i remind correctly and it also was a bluepost, that you declared it as a bug that should stay and you were not happy about it, but you wanted to leave it like that, because the community was ok with it?
Would be very appreciated if you could leave an opinion on that.

Hey all,
There’s a lot of great discussion and a ton of build sharing going on around Legacy of Nightmares builds for the Witch Doctor that focus on the interaction between Spirit Barrage (Phantasms) and several pet-oriented Legendary powers. It’s wonderful to see such constructive conversation and information sharing as various community members explore the strengths and intricacies of this emergent gameplay.
There has also been some concern that this interaction will be nerfed. We wanted to share our thoughts on this today and reassure the Witch Doctor community that, at this time, we have no intentions to make changes to Spirit Barrage (Phantasms) or its currently existing interactions with items such as Mask of Jeram, Ring of Emptiness or The Barber.
While this is somewhat inconsistent philosophically from the changes that we’ve made in the past regarding this skill and rune combination, we looked at the situation objectively and asked ourselves a couple questions:
Is it fun?
Is it balanced?
Ultimately, we’ve decided that the answer to both of these questions is yes, and there is much higher risk in adjusting the balance of this skill or the other items than there is to let the community continue to enjoy this fun and unique build. We will continue monitoring its performance, of course, and we’re prepared to make any changes if something extreme arises. In the meantime, please continue to theorycraft and Spirit Barrage to your heart’s content!
