Elemenetal Hit will be the most OP skill in 3.28 confirmed by GGG

in the interview with ziz they confirmed elemental hit will be completely broken skill it will be so broken that its gonna feel terrible to play anything else but elemental hit




The breach ascendancy point that converts added damage to a specific type [Cold Or Lightning] based on your highest Attribute [Intelligence/Dexeterity] confirmed to work with elemental hit, meaning it'll be bonkers in the 3.28 league

Comments on that by both devs:

Added damage on weapon doesn't work with this, Andrew quoted mark on that being historcially wrong to "word" local damage on weapon as added

Damage gained as isn't "added" damage that gets converted by the breach ascendancy


i hope GGG actually nerf this before 3.28

Surfcaster got all lightning+cold as cold and then the cold could shock for up to 50% more damage and it solved your crit with overcapped resistance. People still complained it was squishy despite Heart of Flame and that it did no damage despite the jolt graft and that it had no AoE at league start and wasn't fun.

Using the breachlord gives you 33% (I think) more flat damage at the cost of an ascendancy, unless there's something I'm not understanding and it specially converts to be 100% more. Is that enough to warp the whole league? (I admit I never played the build lol.)

Edit: People are saying it is 100% more because it's treated as cold on the gem itself so it doesn't lose the 50% per element. Ok that is juicy.
