I like my basic skills, thanks. If you dislike yours, remove them from your bar. Nobody mandates you equip them. Why remove options from everyone?

I’ve enjoyed some basic only builds, or builds where resource is not a real concern later on in D4. However, I tend to agree on the generator/spender design of D4 being bad. After playing a lot of LE and now PoE2, especially coming back to D4 S7, having to do several basic attacks to get enough resource to use 3 or so core attacks and then you have no resource just feels silly.

Be sure it will happen or they ll empower the basic skills to a reasonable degree. For now it’s just silly gameplay
Back in season 4, basic skills were the goat.
Remember bash barb?
How are they worse now?

Agree it’s brutal. POE2 got it right. Any skill can be powerful.
Firebolt Sorcs (the only build that can push pit) will love this hotfix!
Why is people’s first reaction to not liking something about their character to demand complete removal of a mechanic from the game?

When beginners talking about skills…
You can use your gear as your resource generation at a certain point.

You like firebolt build because it can push or because you like the spell more than fireball?
i like firebolt for several reasons. it opens up aspects that benefit from basic skill use, it can be dramatically transformed by different sorc items, it fires like a damn machine gun, it doesn’t burn mana (unless you use something that makes basic skills use mana)
I like fireball for a lot of different reasons…
I can’t really say i like one more than the other. I can say i prefer one or the other for certain situations… i.e. if i’m pushing pit i would for sure use firebolt over fireball. if im farming hell tides i would for sure use fireball over firebolt.
Basically i like build diversity (i typically play 4-5 “Main” build for sorc in a season as well as experimenting with loads of oddball variations, and having basic skills improves build diversity. if you don’t like the build you are playing why not use different skills or a different class instead of saying one of the major skill mechanics should be removed from the game?
or if you really feel it needs to be changed for the skills you are using, say that instead of
“basic skills must go!”
It’s an awful system…along with cooldowns on everything

Brilliant idea! Just delete it…they should hire you straight away
Better than chugging down mana pots. And you have many ways to opt out of useing them, or relying on them too much early on.
Now this(!!!) also bugs the hell out of me.
