Ritual Of Ruin not nerfed?

PVP Arenas
1

So I played a lot of destro before this patch. And today when I logged on I noticed that ritual of ruin does not have a 30 second timer like the change said. Did they change their minds on it or did the forget to change it? Or is it just me. Has anyone else tried this. Let me know.

Stacks don’t have a timer, only the buff that lets you instant cast chaos bolt has a 30 sec duration.

Yea thats ritual of ruin. thats the 2 piece. Thats what im wondering is it only when like its at 10 stacks or like as soon as you get the buff and start building the stacks. You feel me?

Once you hit 10 stacks you have 30 seconds, you can still sit on 8 stacks indefinitely

Dang so the change does basically nothing interesting

I think they just forgot to put it in. Because that would make no sense. I just tested it right now and there is no countdown or anything. SO they literally forgot lmao

was kind of a pointless change anyways tbh

i mean not really tho, at high rated a team could literally just line the stacks

11

eh during infernal you have so many extra shards youre gonna get a 10 stack for free during it just by spamming rain

12

True, but most teams anyway line the entire time

13

yeah prob. idk just felt like a random change that didnt really address the core issue of double bolt anyways which was madness affecting the instant bolt

Correct. You cannot ever be in line of a destro lock.

Its a good change tbh bc it makes comp like mage lock less viable because now for locks to be able to reliably get off a double bolt against a smart team high rated the mage lock has to HAVE a stun before it didnt really matter. But now, if there is no stun teams can literally just run for 30seconds. Until its gone. You feel me

16

are you talking about the infernal stun? most kills are set up with root into chastise anyways. im just talking about the instant bolt dmg.

Ritual of ruin is what’s in the patch notes which is only the final instant buff. The stacking buff is called Impending ruin so this is the intended change.

Wouldnt be surprised if its bugged. Currently dotn have the correct health that we should be at since they removed demon armor.
