Sorc nerfed to ground: datamine

They promised it was gonna be some of each Diablo…But from everything I’ve seen so far it’s more like 10% Diablo 2 and 90% Diablo 3/World of Warcraft🤨

They completely gutted the Sorc build I was planning… very disappointing. Definitely not making a Sorc after seeing this.

Barb: why you hate me?

Lol Sorc will be fine. It always is.

Not sure why they felt the need to nerf Shouts for Barb. Taking 3 Shouts and Passives and Investing in them is a hefty price. It takes a lot of Aspects and CDR to get that to give you decent uptime.

Especially the durations. Like 3-5s is really short so like going through a dungeon is going to be a lot of shouting (Maybe both in and out game haha).

Ah well, I’ll still play Barb but bummer when your class of choice gets nerfed.

Bummed to see hydra also got nerfed, that was my fav in closed beta.

Would someone mind posting a link to the official changes please? Having a hard time finding it

Posting data mined details is risky enough. I might get banned for linking. It’s on reddit tho. Upvoted as a comment pretty high last I checked.

Data mined info doesn’t get banned.

Bodach the way you write nerf/buff notes is horrendous! :thinking:

It’s honestly of no surprise you support WASD being brute forced into an online crossplay game…

Oh shoot, sorry didn’t know that it’s risky. Found some of the changes and dang that’s a bummer about ice blade build. Was loving it in beta but not so sure how it’ll be now

The closed beta end game took place months ago and is completely irrelevant at this point.

Still sound like at least the Barb is the most OP class. The upcoming beta can’t verify that though.

Aww I was about to make this thread. Yeah sorc got beaten to a pulp with the nerf hammer.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer class.

You should add necro blood mist was nerfed into the ground as well. So much for that meme spec.

Nope, barb was heavily nerfed as well. All shouts nerfed, upheal nerfed, but whirlwind was slightly buffed.

They also completely nerfed barb thorn build by a massive amount.

Stacking shouts rightfully got nerfed, the durations was too long.

The cd nerf for rogue isn’t really that bad. Will prob still hit the 3 second cap with strategic enemy grouping.

But how about that massive buff to poison imbuement tho holy hell. As much as I liked shadow I might take poison imbuement wirh poison trap now.

I’m thinking poison twisting blades inner sight is the way to go with rogue.

it seems i need to find a new class to play with tomorrow. sorcerer does not seems viable atm. any suggestion? go barbarian if so wich barb build?
