Streamer: "Small Nerf"

I’ll go to my manager tomorrow and ask for a small raise…
Should work right mister streamer…

sVr and Rob are two of the most knowledgeable streamers for diablo 3. They both disagree with the rend nerfs. sVr even voiced his concern with the devs at blizzcon. Let’s hope they listen to the knowledgeable ones.

Guess we will finally be on par with other classes when D4 hits. Until then, don’t dream about it.

Devs after all the nerf cries:

:roll_eyes:

If on par means 6-10 GRs behind the Top 3 classes then sure…

I guess that I’m on my way up. :wink:

He wasn’t invited. He had to pay to go. Blizzard hates fluffy after last year’s fiasco. He also mained barbs for a long time and tested them on the ptr extensively. He also never called for any nerfs whatsoever to the barb. You guys are getting mad at the wrong person. All he did was post a picture with a title you didn’t like - as far as I know he was the only person who actually bothered to look into it at blizzcon and reported the nerf to you guys…

You guys are literally getting upset over a pic title when he was the one who reported the nerf.

He was not the only one reporting stuff.
Also he calls it a small nerf, which it is not.
You are just another troll defending people like yourself. I am gonna report you and ignore you from now on, not gonna spend time with a troll.

Uhhh… Report me for what exactly? You’re abusing the report system which makes you the troll. Also ignoring me is probably for the best since you can’t formulate a good argument.

Last reply. I am reporting you cause you derail the subject at hand. You also troll around leading up for discussions with your poking around.
Fluffy wrote “small nerf” to the Barbarian nerf, which was revolved around a 10k paragon player, the same player doing a 145 after the nerfs to Wizard.
The Barbarian was going from a 140ish down 7 greater rift levels, leading it below other classes. Cause every class except for Monk can go for 140, at least.

7 greater rift levels is not a small nerf. Especially for a class never been at the top like other classes have and still is.
While I was writing to him on Twitter, he did not even know what I was talking about, when I mentioned these things to him = clueless.
He then proceeded to call it hatred, which I never wrote anything about or never wrote anything negative.
He calls it a small nerf, when i wrote back “it’s not a small nerf cause it will reduce the greater rift level by 7”. He then wrote back, as stated before, “what are we even talking about here”. And he proclaims to be a D3 spokesperson/the lord of it.
While this might be a joke, he certainly is one himself. This is not a small nerf and he only writes that to be in the good grace of Blizzard.
Since you then come along and defend him, I guess you are one of the few viewers on his stream.

And yes, as Free wrote about it : there are truely Barbarian haters out there. Their sole purpose is to bring it down.
You might need to work on your arguments yourself before speaking up again.

That is false. My statement was literally about the topic and person that it was discussing. But flag away, abusing the flag system is against the code of conduct so good luck with that.

My name / me as a person was not the subject, you derailed by going for me instead. So go ahead, write more about something I know about.

My post doesn’t mention you at all. It mentions that you guys in this thread are getting upset about a picture caption and that he was at least reporting on the nerfs as well as the fact that he never called for or mentioned wanting any nerfs during the ptr. You would know this if you watched his stream.

I recall you typing :

This will be the end, I don’t feed trolls more than to prove my point. Move along and go tell Fluffy you did a good job.

Some day dev. love will find us
Break those nerf chains that binds us
One night will remind you
How we touched 140 and nerfed to oblivion
If trolls ever hurt you (barb)
True love won’t desert you
You know I still love you (barb)
Though we touched 140 and nerfed to oblivion.

Good old 80s, simpler but more colorful times.

Woah… I think there is some massive confusion here boyz. First) I didn’t make the changes, I didn’t have anything to do with the changes, we literally were just told the items changes were on the ps4 Diablo 3 station and so we excitedly moved over there to snap some photos. I do still think the top 1% of barb players are going to slay on WW even after nerfs. I get why people are upset, no one likes to be nerfed and barbs needed the love. But attacking me, my Diablo knowledge or skill or just attacking me as a person is straight toxic. I literally just made a tweet showing you guys the changes and said “small nerf” because they removed the 250 dmg mod. I still expect it to slay… but no one really knows how it will perform until we get to play it. So stop freaking out, if it sucks, the barb boyz will complain and maybe it’ll get buffed in s20. Either way, it has nothing to do with me, I just tweeted it so you boyz could see it, Jesus

No hate here fluffy keep doing what you do :slight_smile:

I am however up in arms over the Lamentation nerf. I think I’ve made and replied to over 20 posts in a matter of 12 hours. But I in no way shape or form hold you responsible. Wish you the best and don’t let the haters get to you.

It’s the “small” part that is drawing rage, a 67% nerf isn’t small.

FYI every GR level has monster HPs increased by 17%

So let’s look if this is small or big nerf.

If the buff is 200% our final buffed damage is 300%. So it is triple 3x

And let’s say we lose X amount of GRs.

1.17^x=3

x (log 1.17)= (log 3)

x=(log 3)/(log 1.17)=7

That nerf causes us to lose 7GRs.

Let’s think for a second about Darkpotato’s 140 clear: It was a clear made with (80-90% close to) perfect gear, 10000 paragon, perfect floor composition and finished the rift at +14 minutes. This is the fishing range

So basically he starts fishing at 140-7=133 now and we had WW barb able to clear 130 pre-buff.

This is the outrage.

As a streamer and public figure what you say sounds more and reaches to more places and the blizzard developers might do a serious mistake here. I don’t think the outrage is personal but calling it a slight nerf is not a correct description. It is a nerf to oblivion.

Personally, I think that some barbs will owe you a debt of gratitude. Now they know and are advocating for a change. Information is good.

There has been too much propagation of misinformation that has led to unjustified emotional responses.
