LMAO, the only thing he did it is proved that he can finish a GR 101 with Uliana build ONLY, while you said that you could do GR 100 last season or even seasons ago with ANY build (sure with shietloads of paragon, you don’t need 100+ caldesans in items in case of specific builds)…
If look at the leaderboards you will notice that some players can reach GR 110-120 in season with random paragons. Some can achieve it with 1000-1100 while others need 1500-1800 paragon…
You probably are just blind, cause I NEVER said that you’ll be doing speeds 150, YOU’re just putting words in my mouth, but I guess that’s your thing and yeah the point would be to do 130 speeds without the need of no lifing and spending over 8h a day on grinding paragons just to achieve it…
Without the pointless and dumb powercreep top players would still be sitting at 75 GR while others would struggle to finish a 60 GR…
Bad ideas?
As for the Squirt’s Necklace idea yeah it was a bit over the top I admit, but my suggetions to the season theme weren’t. The season theme turned out to be actually helpful on higheir GRs at least for ranged classes or builds, but even if they changed it to a community buff (even with lower damage boost, cooldown reduction and resource costs) like LoN or RoRG was it might be better than it is right now, cause you wouldn’t have to run to any circle just benefit from the buff the whole time…
Never happened?
Oh I’m lying? Take a close look at the templar… Yes this video was run on Torment 11 only, but it PROVES that I’m not lying and some legendary gems WORKED only followers, but only on that PTR in July 2014… As for doing 150 GR solo with followers using both of these gems, maybe I exaggerated and you could only run GR 90-120… Anyway this happened on a PTR in 2014…
I guess you were blind or didn’t even play on this PTR or started playing D3 RoS in 2015 or later, cause I’ve seen leaderboards back than and players who tested that how you called it bugged build (Crusader with Fire Walkers and St. Archew’s Gage gloves) was doing 150 GR (no idea how they did, but it happened none the less, it was so stupidly OP) with their NON-season chars, but only chars with paragons above 2000 or 3000… Yeah 150 GR wasn’t a thing back than, but it happened using that build, but only on PTR…
Barbs got Whirlwind build nerfed back in 2016:

Btw. If Barb wasn’t nerfed so many times, than why do we have threads like this:
I guess barbs calling for major BUFFS to actually MATCH other classes in clearing highiest GRs is asking for even more powercreep which ofc in your opinion is pointless and dumb isn’t it?
In your perfect world only TOP players who spend countless of hours with strongest builds and items should be allowed to reach the highiest GRs possible.
You probably would be in 7th heaven if we go back to days where only TOP players could barely run GR 80-90 while others struggle to complete a 70-75 GR…
