What is the sorcerers secret hidden build that devs are using to come up with this patch and thinking that’s enought to be balanced.
Infinite flame shield is not fun and should not be the only way to push the pit.

But it is. And that build kind of backwards. It can do pits. But only after you nearly perfected all your masterworks. If you already perfected your masterworks why run pits anymore? Catch 22. And yeah the build boring as any other build clearing high pits since most revolve around a basic skill.

Welcome to the step child of d4, barbarians have to be king so sorc cannot compete. I digress though I really like sorc and them being treated this way speaks volumes of how blizzard wants them to be. UNLESS it’s a completely broken build as a result of a bug cough season 2 ball lightning then Sorc will never ever be as good as Barb or whatever the current FOTM is.

Infinite immunity should not exist in games like this. Taking 0 damage should not exist. These concepts break everything about needing to gear properly.

I’d definitely a cheeze mode but currently the only way for sorc to compete in the pit with other classes. I find it un-fun and stupid but I am guessing this was not intended and I suspect it will get fixed eventually and it would be nice if we didn’t have to wait for mid season.
LB was not broken it was barely viable really. Most classes were doing AoZ 25 think highest lb was like 18 or so.
It was overnerfed into the dirt too. Because like the current necromancer it was a decent build made strong by a season gimmick. But since it was sorc instead of just fixing the season gimmick or waiting for it to go away it nerfed the base of the build and made it useless.

I love how everyone is complaining about infinite flame shield sorc but nobody is complaining about the 2 different ways barbs can be completely invincible and the ways rogue can be completely invincible

Best magic user in the game is blight Necro followed by lightning storm Druid!
Rogue’s 100% dodge is not invincible it dodges only hits/attacks, it still takes damage from ground effects and explosions. But I agree this also should not exists to this degree.
I have not touched barb in a few seasons…but yeah if there is one, that should be stripped away also.

I want to play any builds and have the same fun. I wanna see fireball builds, conjuration builds, crakeling energy builds, blizzard without spikes doing blizzard dammage. I wanna use unique staff withous giving up temperings.
I dont want to have to put tal rasha in every builds. I wanna have enought output if I choose not having defensive skill.
I wanna see whirlwind and hota barbs again. Not only bash.

You are making no logic statement here, Infinity immunity actually requires much harder gearing than any other high HP/DR/Tank build, you need extremely rare billion gold pieces, with all the right temperings and all the right masterworks. I literally spent 5000+ neathirons and 500mln gold to get few items to fit this build.
I didn’t say it was not hard to get.
I said it should not exist or be attainable.
Once you have infinite immunity do you need to care about anything else defensive on your gear?
It is a design flaw in games of this nature.
Don’t really care what it costs or how hard it is to get in any instances.

At this point I believe some GF of some important head in dev team giving him a head everytime barb is op and sorc is trash.
The devs behind sorc and druids are hopeless, they have no idea what they are doing. Change them please. Put them on barb so they can be also miserable as sorc players.
I want to see tormented boss melts when I cast any High ranked skill if my build is well done.
This should be true for every builds of every class.

Why would you need to care about any defensive stats on your gear after you fully cap them? Ugh?
Where is logic here?
Honestly when I saw the nerfs to the Pit and how they explain the change, first thing that came to my mind was: “lol they gave up.”
They gave up fixing the classes and balancing the classes so they just nerfed the content.

Did not they only nerf t60 pits? So t100-t150 pits still have trillions of HP bosses non clearable by anything but broken barbillions
I have a build but it’s not really a secret. First step you level up a barb. That’s it!
Joke aside, blizzard is probably the most enjoyable build for farming, maybe frozen orb if you don’t like the delayed dmg.
