Does anyone know for a fact if Heartseeker has been nerfed? I googled this and could not find anything that says it has been weakened, but it feels noticeably weaker in Season 5. (I’m talking about Heartseeker’s performance before the Victimize key passive has been selected.)
Its nerfed because passive “Victimize” was nerfed. To be honest, was fixed. On season 4 - victimize proc dmg x2 which was not intended.
Right now, Victimize was fixed, proc normal dmg as intended and thats why - heartseeker is weaker than previously
But maybe, it can be playable when You merge new gloves (which increase basic dmg a lot but costs energy) + mystic/uber ring (starless …)
Collecting items to check it how it will work
My Season 4 rogue is now in the Eternal realm, and it is still as powerful as before and doesn’t feel nerfed. It’s sad, it was so much fun the way it was. Thanks for clarifying.
