Barbs are standing still and kill 100 pit while others are getting one shot

How good is this game about class balance?

Necs are getting one shot no matter how good is the build.

Barbs: Hey, I am eating all spells and killing 100 pit with No buff!

Forget balance. Developer favorize only barb.

You play barbarian if you want easy mode.
Necro if you want easy mode.
Sorc if you want to easy mode without damage.
Rogue if you want normal play and high damage.
Druid if you have a weird fetish.

The game will never be balanced, every season has been a total mess. Play for fun, there is plenty of stuff to do and 100+ pit farming is boring.

They change the HP increase formula last season and Barb has passive that increase percentage of health multiplicatively and that passive exist in the temper recipe,

combine that and your barb can have half of million HP this season by stacking %HP stats on items, paragon and elixir

This is not some highly balanced esports game. It’s normal for some classes to absolutely dominate in a season in Diablo while others fall behind.

That’s me lol :heart_eyes:

And they took out Inborn damage reduction that babrs had.
Its imposible to balance class since all those bonus from weps.

This is the baseline game. There is no season mechanic that makes a class better. So it’s like this forever without nerfs or buffs to some classes. Understand that a season mechanic can really make a class shine over another, but this season they didn’t add one. So this is where we are.

nerf the whole arsenal problem will be resolve, 2h give 50% bonus and 1h 25% :melting_face: or whatever you want

Unfortunately this is not the problem, they have access to too many multiplicative passives than other classes even without it. I think they should just buff everything else, hell uncap damage doubling on all skills from tempering just for this season so everything is broken like Bash. Let everyone have their fun and do a balance patch after.

Necro cleared pit 141…the higher than any other class…sounds like you need to learn how to necro

abuse bugged holy bolts can count here?

It won’t be like this forever they will make adjustments as Blizzard always does. But some things will always stand out no matter what.

Don’t think it’s bugged. It seems like it’s working the way they intended as the only real seasonal power.

i agree! but the devs dont want everyone to have sugar, otherwise our character models will all look like druids. They want to make us take the medicine. Or was it salad… ugh I cant remember that stream now, i guess i better get a new phone

16

yes ofc it scale with monster/area lv just like prenerf low life bulwark, bulwark was gone for good so holy bolts should scale with weapon dmg instead of monster/area lv :hammer_and_wrench:

17

Take that away, necros will still be god tier in the 120-130s

Everyone else uses holy bolt too

same every season, they seem unable to fix the core problems.

I skipped S3 but S1 and S2 i played barb and when you get to certain point you just wreck everything.

This season starting with Necro.

let’s face it, this is barblo 4 and they will ALWAYS be top dog b/c it is blizzard’s pet class.
