@"mebengalsfan#9264" no good deed goes unpunished.* Why allow more time, when balancing is an essential and basic mandatory requirement for actual games? * Why allow more time, when SW was already bugged and unbalanced since it's creation (many years)? * Why allow more time, when staff have absolutly no idead where they…

I just read that balanced left Cryptic (no idea how nor why). So that explain the lack of communication. But now what will happen ???
-
@balanced#2849* Perfect idea to rework all classes at the same time! * Great things to work on animation and casting! * Good job (ex)terminating bugs! * Praiseworthy idea to improve Soulbinder and to revive Damnation* Sadly, just by reading, it will fall short: There is no clearly stated GOAL for Soulbinder nor Damnation.…

Asking for bug fixing and classes balancing doesn't equal to asking other classes nerf. SW has ALWAYS been a BUGGED class since day one, and still is... Without BUGGED features SW has ALWAYS been "in a bad spot", and still is... Balancing is a feature that all recent & decent games MUST provide.* So have you Munchausen…
-
So first remark : THOSE CHANGES ARE NEARLY EXCLUSIVELY AIMED AT FURY DPS BUILD --> Damnation and Temptation still exist! More! Temptation is the current SW mainstream :p So, I'm saying it's not the overall SW changes top 5. Second remark : Those changes are FAST FIX OF SW DPS, IN ORDER TO PUT IT CLOSE TO META --> It's no…

Gathered data from multiples sources* AllConsumingCurse* +5% CriticalSeverity from artifact weapon power * +some dps with LesserCurse* Synergy with InfernalWrath +5% debuff * Help puting curses for DreadTheft +25% debuff * NoPityNoMercy* HellishRedbuck loose a part of it's DPS for a better burst * Provide short…
-
That's it! Moreover, it's stated in the last debuff list that the 15% are shared with the party, I'm wondering if it's still true with mod14 as it doesn't match the tooltip? For using ACC you have to take into account the weapon power granting +5% Critical Severity (meaning +5% DSP on a 100% critical build). For Darkness…

I'll do like "in the real worl" I'll put a :) and ignore dumb ones.
-
If you ask a mean to avoid melee does that mean you have problem surviving or do you just want some hunt's item buffing ranged powers ? * In any case, even in low level solo (I'll be testing it seriously when I've time), I'd recommend to keep PoP (Pillar Of Power)* If you have trouble staying alive take AoH (Arms Of…
-
The main problem is due to players believing/obeying the META god even when they will never reach it: that is a ridiculous 5 minutes gap... Then they are those so called SW's "underperforming problems"* Lack of burst damage, it's a Game-Design problem due to 'power creep'/'foes blowing up when you barely look at them', so…
-
Bad mental attitude. You take things you see and read for granted, and then became easily misled by shiny presentation/communication, syllogism, value judgment, ... That's the wrong path even if you got correct answers/results -> not because some famous theorycrafter isn't trustable, but cuz YOU will become a no-brainer…
-
I trust no one, especially on this game (No source code = No trust). Thinking otherwise is delusional. However I'm wayyy too lazy to go testing everything ^^ and I don't enjoy testing that much... (So I do take lot's of things for granted when I obviously should not.) Remark: I'm wondering why dev's give a SELFISH 10% DSP…
-
What you call the "desperately lower spectrum" is in fact quite large and was even larger before the fix of leveling between 60/70. We have to understand that casual players are REALLY badly informed and mis-informed* They follow BiS party build for solo play (if they follow anything...) * They don't have guild (or forgot…
-
Oh! Great a Darkness user! I've got some questions for you!* What is the "high IL" range you talk about? 14k/15k/16k/17k/18k? * About Darkness * What power did you use to trigger Darnkess: BladesOfVainquishedArmies or HarrowStorm or both? * Is the Darnkess 10% DPS buff meaningful for you? * Is the Darnkess 10% Defence…
-
Interesting question! I may go test it, if I have time and motivation ^^ (next week) Let's say it's really a unmitigated capped buff* Loss of 5 points in Temptation tree (ok can do without it) * Loss of 18% (edit thanks @jaime4312, I didn't know how I put wrong number, too tired I guess...) of DPS buff when not on the…
-
Okay! I'm on my testing way anyway as my warlock and some guildmates need it too.
-
So many misleading information and comments...* Let's start with Gaarlanx's build video containing a good number of mistakes making it far from a "good" build (don't follow that!!! Details why.) * Then talks about SW being RIP * Sure SW isn't loved by dev's at all. (Especially Damnation and Fury. Previously it was…
-
Gaarlanx build contains a good number of mistakes making it far from a "good" build.* All his build/remarks concern high/BiS players * Those few players already know what they are doing (except maybe whales), so what's the use for his far from perfect build? * For all other players (vast majority), this build/remarks are…

About Templock survival for PlayerVersusEnvironment The [SoulBinder] path was the "way to survive" for very low level Templock (not enough LifeSteal and not enough HealthPoints). Thanks to "Dust To Dust" feat and the burst DPS of SoulScorch. (I personnally felt the HUGE difference back when ElementalEvil mod flattenned us…
-
About the [Armor of Quick Recovery] I'm on my way to get it cuz I'm wondering how much a spam-crit-build PoP+CB+FB/(BoVA) with all ~5 sec of duration and cool down) can benefit from it? Mathematically it sould approximatly be* +1/5 [1 second gain max every 5 seconds (armor cap)] * * 9/10 [reaching 50% critical chance and…

I was over-joyous to see your message until I understood that I was talking about buff and you debuff...

DPS from a support class? Hilarious! Yesterday I barely got +20% more DPS than a 2k lower geared CW...
-
Tested in terms of what?* Party utility* Frost is the best with +10% uncaped unmitigated lvl73_75%effective party buff (at Pure/Trans level) * Just behind is PlagueFire with 9% uncaped unmitigated lvl73_75%effective party buff * Solo DPS (look at the previous thread) they don't seem to be that mutch difference* (For SB)…
-
Sigh... Even my main doesn't have that... In your place, given your 11K toon can survive the Fane I'would not give more though and just enjoyfarm. (It's not like 11K is enough to enter Tong or Cradle.)
-
No major distinction between ACC and FoE? Multiple possibilities* Do you spam fast enought to keep the 3 stack of the FoE buff? * Do you have enough Arpen? Cuz with the Fury Feat [Infernal Wrath] it grant 5% on foes burning with LesserCurse. * Is your weapon power consistent with the feat? * For ACC it's 5% crititcal…
-
For an SW alt? Why do you care about DPS? Just go for party utility with Hellbringer Temptation, with PillarOfPower and what-ever (depends on what you like and context). Slot ShadowWalk not for LifeSteal but for speed running. If your SW is too low level, slot PrinceOfHell for ArmorPenetration. Otherwise it's FoE or ACC.…
-
What's your SW level and if 70 what is it's item level? After is your goal top DPS (glass cannon) or must this build provide first a decent survivability for your everyday solo PvE?
-
You play PvP in THIS game? Hahahahahaahahahahahaa! Sorry if it hurt you somewhere, but did you REALLY expect playing PvP from THIS Neverbalancedwinter? As PvP is all about players skill, and that without system balance there isn't any skill, so...
-
Thanks for the info. Dev's are back to desks, and SW are back to black... So it's now legit to create builds on 'bugs'='features for 2 years to come' like the PillarOfPower miraculous LesserCurses and the (not sure it's proved) efficiency bug of BroodOfHadar and some other next to be found things. (It's always what SW have…
-
Good advice! Templock is already overhealing but underprotecting... If your wallet/time is tight to be able to afford/farm the Orcus wand, or if you opt for utility over performance, you can go to the Lathander Set with it's resurrection capabilities. Back on topik, still no post from Balanced&Cie since the release... I…
