HOTA season 3 was massive. What you guys think deathblow will be the same?
No clue. But I try a Deathblow build every season just for fun and I’ll do it again in S5. If it’s awesome, I’ll bonk away, if not and it still under performs (compared to other builds I play) then I won’t play it.
Experimentation is half the fun in games trying to “beat” the system heh heh.
Having The Third Blade makes Deathblow a Core skill. It can work but I rather just stick to Hammer of the Ancient. Less investments.
Nope. Already been tested. If Uniques remain how they are now that is a fat no, especially if you have to use Red Ring, Overkill and Third Blade just to make it viable. Even just using Third Blade is like a crappier form of Bash Cleave. The major problem is that you are losing Tempers with Unique items and that Unique items do not have inherently higher Affix values to compensate what you are trading off and losing.
Rob just put out a video with DB today. It can work.
Not saying Deathblow can’t work. Deathblow as primary damage source does work. The investment is huge though. Really not worth the effort.
You can almost 100% guarantee that Third Blade will be nerfed somehow with him posting videos of DB and Rupture being spammable and double-dipping.
Nah, man. It’s by design.
Likely one of the reasons they nerfed Unbridled.
