I built a bear. But the overpower crits aren’t anything fancy. I have my gear upgraded through the first tear and my OP crits are mostly around 4-5M with an occasional around 10M (very rare). I have 2709% OP damage, stacking health, etc. How large of numbers have you seen as Pulverize?
I have overpower triggered form the skills, the boon, bloodboiling, and banished lords. It seems entirely underwhelming. I have my 5 sub par OP crits, then I tickle the enemies until banished lord procs again. We need resource reduction, but then that caused banished lords to take longer to trigger.
They need to buff base Pulverize damage. It’s built around overpower, but they nerfed overpower because the barbs. Or reduce the delays on Provocation and Enhanced Pulverize. But really they just need to buff Pulverize damage alot. Even in early game it takes two Pulverizes to kill most mobs. It’s not scaling well at all.
Edit: change 4-5K to 4-5M, my bad.
Please tell me you meant millions, not thousands.
Yes, sorry I will edit. my bad.
So I just switched, my amulet to shephards, and gloves to stampede. Weapon still has shockwave. There’s a slight bump, but the base pulverize damage is so low that it doesn’t scale well in the end game.
P4wnyhof is building one now as well and he’s disappointed in the endgame pulverize damage. Can’t kill a tormented boss.
The only way I’ve seen Pulverize work is by making it an Earth skill and effectively using a caster build. As an aside, how did you get your OP that high? Did you roll it on all gear?
Lucky GA’s, I’m following earth build guides between maxroll and mobalytics. It’s pathetic. They nerfed overpower because of barbs were scaling too high and we’re left with this. neat.
Overpower nerf for barbs and destroyed druids
No other backup buffs to compensate this.
Playing pulverize or earth is a meme atm
Playing Druid is basically a meme since launch.
This. Non bugged builds were weak!
I am playing Pulverize Druid too. Quite a change from my S3 Barb. I levelled to L100 but still have a couple of Glyphs to max. I can improve a bit my gear but I am not expecting a big change front that. I am struggling in T90s NMDs and Pit 40s. Might get to 50 but killing the boss at the end is already extremely painful.
I normally keep my build throughout the season my I am not sure to do it this time.
well, first of all, you should never be stacking resource reduction with BL. You should be stacking Resource generation. Generation gives you same %, but you end up scaling better with druid legendary node and BL.
I use it for traversing white mobs and as finishing damage after proccing petrify and creeping thorns with earth pillars mod. Damage is slow going. Havent spent a ton of time on it though. Just leveling an alt druid to try to make a support druid. My main was human lightning storm with sheppards. Basically doing a drag and tag technique on the pulverize alt until 100

Once you get all the ashes for the season leveling an alt is pretty quick. I got to 82 in a day and a half to 2 days without carry.
