Development Manifesto: Ascendancy Changes

Hierophant looks good, the 100% duration for Totems as well as the aoe may make my Stormcall totems viable.
Hype!

Spotted - in the video - new 'skill slot' beside the mana bubble ;)

... for some of the classes we have ideas for further directions to take them that will result in larger revamps
... iterative process that will occur over several releases.




Great decisions, well done & thank you.

The Guardian will be unplayeble in solo still, weak changes.

It even looks like a pokeball :)
Yes you really need to improve Leech, Spell casters can't leech as efficient as melee physical builds
i am my own cockblock
"You and additional allies have 10% chance to block..."

This is confusing and inaccurate terminology that has been in the game and in need of a fix for a long time now, so I don't understand why you are adding more of it.

10% chance to block != 10% additional chance to block. Unless you are playing PoE.

Any native speaker of English who is not already familiar with the idiosyncracies of this particular wording choice by GGG devs would read that as a debuff, not a buff.
Wash your hands, Exile!

Nice buffs i personally have problems with defenses, since es nerf i have no endgame goal for defenses. When i go into red maps its constant rips and i stop playing if i cant progress.
If I had Arcane surge lvl 20 connected with totem it will give me lvl 20 AS or this AS in the asscendency description?

Changes are very cool. I thought I'd be skipping this league, but ascendancies look cool enough.


PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD reconsider how you present the updated trees. Video format is completely useless for this. A screenshot with outlined descriptions would be so much better.
