This will be simple and to the point.
You are nerfing and gutting Destro. For what exactly?
-
Removing avatar makes zero sense and does three negative things.
a. It removes shard generation
b. it lessens our cleave/aoe damage
c. takes away from some of the cooler parts of destro
-
Dropping chaos incarnate to 70% is a HUGE nerf. Kalamanzi made that very clear in his youtube video. This is also a pointless nerf. as the damage increase is not constant anyway. That is either by design or CI is bugged.
a. it is almost as if you are trying to force us to use dimensional rift. Stop, we will use it if we want to. Make it competitive with CI and let us decide.
-
Putting energy into soul fire is tired and a waste of time. Most of us do not use it and it in its current, or even previous form. I recommend removing it.
-
Decimating bolt looks great, except it’s really an execute and is a 2 second cast. Why would we use an execute that buffs incinerate after the fact? makes zero sense.
-
You now want us to use incinerate, chaos bolt, soul fire and decimating bolt? How many buttons are we to use outside our other buttons?
In closing:
Remove soul fire. Remove decimating bolt or at the very least change how it operates and move it higher on the talent tree. Where it is at makes ZERO sense. From a player point of view, you are destroying destruction.
thank you

They already destroyed Destro when these hidden voters voted for season 1 set bonus. Most Destro Locks suspect it was not the players of this class.

Destro feels better on the alpha that it does in game now due to the hero talents we get…

Right?
You have to look at ALL changes, including the full-set of either Diabolist or Hellcaller, before making opinions.
AoDs removal sucks.
But I’ve watched several Hellcaller and Diabolist POVs from TWW Alpha and Destro is slinging out just as many Chaos Bolts, more powerful CDs, still plenty of AOE/Cleave being thrown out.
It makes perfectly fine sense.
You kill an add and then you have stronger incinerates to pump back onto the boss.
Or you finish with a trash pack in M+ and now you can have a stronger opening window onto the next pack.
That’s just complete nonsense lol.
The truth is a lot of the people value numbers over engagement.

What are you talking about? Channel demonfire and portals are garbage and not fun. No one ever wanted those crappy tier sets. S1 tier set is really boring but at least you’re not forced to take some dumb talent that should just be deleted from the game.

So, for me, personally, current destro is literally the most boring spec of any class I’ve ever played in this game. I don’t think they can ruin it, save for removing one of the 4 button pushes. Likewise with demo. You could close your eyes, tab target and mash buttons with either spec and do just fine.

Dimensional Rifts in S3 absolutely cranked damage and were a welcome instant cast spell in an insanely immobile spec. Even the pvp gamers were jumping for joy. People just whined “boo hoo, I dont wanna be forced to take a spell capstone” in a super weak argument when they had to change stat priority because it had zero mastery scaling, so it looked worse on paper when you swapped from S2 tier.
Hell, when we got to the current season’s tier, I dropped 3 buttons from my rotation in keys. I see people complaining about how brain dead the spec is now and “lol one button spec” but in reality those were the same people voting for this.

I think that’s great you liked it but I didn’t. I don’t care about temporary pets and that’s exactly what rifts are. I don’t really like any pets. I’d rather you didn’t take a pet as destro. Demo can have that garbage. There are other ways to fix the mobility issue. TONS of ways.

I imagine most people were offended enough by a CDF tier bonus, and rifts to a lesser extent, which is why s1 got voted in. Personally I dont understand why tier sets dont just buff chaos bolt like its been since mop sets.
Most people being people who dont frequently comment on sites like this or even reddit.

No, it isnt.
It is very straight forward that the season picked was not the better option.
Did not make much sense if any.
Yes it did.
The same group of people always coming out to defend a stance that makes no sense at all.
You’re part of the reason we lost T3 for T1 huh.
Good thing that s3 tier set is staying as a talent, very glad that it doesnt require you to take the dimensional rift active talent either

Theres about 4 digits of reasons for s1 winning
Ya me and like everybody else besides you. Most people hated it. I clearly wasn’t in the minority. You were.
Nah, i wouldn’t say the majority at all. Quite a few liked the S3 teir set. It gave us more mobility, which is something destruction specifically is sorely lacking in. Beats a boring measily crit chance increase and increased crit damage. But to each their own. It’ll always be like this, some people dislike the current teir and complain, while some enjoy it. Its just the way the game is. Can’t please everyone.
