Maxroll predicts SB to fall below Necro in power after bug fixes

Team lead at Maxroll Wudi “predicts” spiritborn power level to fall below Necro after bug fixes. Necro being the most powerful class this season.

Again this is only a prediction. Even if true SB will still stand firm within S tier in power level. We should be ok ! I hope…

At this point not sure when the bug fixes will come in for the SB which will ultimately brings the class down in power significantly. Some are saying mid season maybe a little bit, but i personally think it’ll happen in S7.

Im not an SB expert for sure, but if it is still bug related, you can expect a fix anytime.

Hence why one should never build upon bugs, and expecting it to stay.

If its still solid S tier even after bug fixes, id say thats a good message. Bring them down to normal levels.

Also, yea id agree, spirit wave necro is pretty strong. i like it a lot. It lacks the mobility of the SB but its solid. All in all i think necro is in a healthy spot this season.

his “prediction” means about as much as anyone elses, it holds no value, so who cares what he “predicts”

I predict another bug/exploit build dominating S7. I guarantee that.

Was there any season that the very top meta wasn’t a bugged build? I don’t seem to recall any.

Why exactly SB need a nerf?
I mean what is it to you that is so frustrating about SB?
Play Necro. Necro cant do pit 150.
Who gives a horse manure if it didnt.
Why are you ppl so angry and frustrated about SB?
Its D4 all the same.

The good thing about paragon points is they’re realm-wide so even after they nerf the SB you can just pickup your 260 paragon points and place them into the next bugged OP build.

I honestly don’t know how anyone can predict anything in this game, Blizz breaks more than they fix.

Oslek predicts that when the bug fixes happen there will be more crying on the forums.

Some are wishing it would be this season. Those some are wrong if we go by what the dev team has stated already. And that is that they will not nerf a class/build during the season unless it is causing stability issues with the servers.
Now could they go back on what they previously promised? Absolutely. And it would not be the first time they have done such a thing.
But I think the storm that would cause would make the SB issue seem paltry compared.
That is because that would then set a precedent that going forward they could make changes for whatever reason they want and invalidate peoples time.
They tried doing this once before and the backlash was so bad that they had to quickly come out and say they would never do that again.
Which I why I am sure they will balance the class in S7 and no sooner.

Again, do NOT just nerf the top performing class.

ADD to the existing classes that cannot perform to that level.

EVERY class with EVERY build SHOULD be able to do top end content provided they have the correct gear/correct tempers/correct MW/correct paragon nodes/correct glyphs/correct player skill.

Predicting what this dev team will do is a fool’s errand.

No one can predict when the best builds will emerge, especially since they’re often based on bugs. “Exploit early, exploit often” seems to be the mantra of Blizzard games.

But you still have to get your glyphs to lvl 100 :laughing:

I have every single glyph from SB at lvl 100. Should carry over to all other classes too :speak_no_evil:

This would be nice but it’s just wishful thinking. It’s never been the case since the game released. Each season there’s always a handful of S-tier builds which rely on some sort of bug to be there. These builds dominate the content and I can’t see that changing in future seasons/ updates.

People keep saying why does pit level matter but if these people who can do pit 150 now had that taken from them they would throw a tantrum. Grown men.

True, as a player you either adapt and embrace the bugs that come with top builds or use a bug free build that’s typically left in the dust.
