Stormbane's Wrath must go away

This affix makes the game unbearable to play.

The damage is constant and is hitkill even with resistance capped.

Make the damage gradual, shock or poisonous, I don’t know, or remove from the game, this affix is unpalatable.

While i agree with you stormbane is terrible, just salvage it

No need to remove it. There are other choices.

Its more complex than “just salvage”, i’m already salvaging barrier, HP, physical damage resistance etc…

Is it? Because if they get rid of it completely, you’d still have limited choices.

Again if they remove it, you will lose mats to actually make new sigils and still have less of a choice.

It really isnt that big of a deal.

Of course it is, if i have 5 sigils
1 is physical resistance
1 monster HP
1 monster barrier
1 GHOSTS dungeon
1 stormbane…

it means i have to salvage all sigils…

I feel like 90% of my sigils are blood blister, protection done, stormbane’s wrath, death pulse, or drifting shade. Probably just confirmation bias. But I feel like I’m salvaging more sigils than I did last season.

If you are salvaging all sigils because they are too “annoying”, too “difficult, or too “involved, then it sounds like a you problem.

Sorry man. Gotta work with what they give us.:man_shrugging:t2:

Just annoying

Just because I can play doesn’t mean the affixes are right

All the affixes that make me take 30% to finish the dungeon I choose not to do.

Ghosts hitkill with the red beam even though they have a cap on their resistances.

Stormbane gives me hitkill even though it has cap on resistances.

The rest is ok, but an additional affix for salvage is a big deal.

Dunno bout you but I face tank it in T90s all the time. Its a slow moving object. The one thats more annoying is the Lightning Storm.

yall die in these ? i havent found one yet i dont… most the time im standing near a blood blister when it pops or im outside the dome when the strike hits and just keep going…

Agree. A small circle in the entire map where you can’t stand is peanuts to a small circle in the entire map where you have to stand. Especially when that small circle is outside of the fog wall barrier you just crossed.

Yep, all these affixes that are annoying gets insta salvaged :slight_smile:

Maybe Stormbanes wrath should be changed to partially decrease player dmg instead. So missing it wont kill you, but make it hard, if not impossible, to kill monsters for a while.
(edit: eh, was thinking of the dome, but same applies, stuff should generally not oneshot, albeit tbh stormbanes dmg never seemed that bad)

More of the modifiers should be like Stormbanes wrath though. Not in the sense that they should be annoying, but they should aim to change gameplay. The ones that should be removed is the generic “reduce dmg” ones.

Indeed.

Stormbane
Lighting Storm

Auto salvage. Absolutely terrible.

Anything that requires you to stop and stand in a bubble, potentially, in an empty dungeon is bad design and totally pointless. Its bad enough that we have to do objective in dungeons let alone some mechanic that makes you literally stop whatever you are doing and stand still. For that matter any affix that is not just buffs to the monsters I trash. The exception is the hellgate one because they essentially do nothing by T4.

OK. Perhaps you should tell us which affixes work for you rather those who do not since you don’t like several? I don’t mean to be rude but seriously? barrier, HP, physical dmg, resistance, stormbane.
They already took out a couple that were really bad. The game needs to have some challenge, it can’t be too easy.

Most of the affixes are designed to annoy the player not enhance the experience.

It’s like they had a ‘thatl do donkey’ mindset when designing them.

By just accepting what they give us we get 70 dollar alpha testing a finished product…

Call them out, hell I say we stop complaining in a forum that gets 0 attention for the dev team and just complain on twitter to the boss’s themselves
