Rest in peace, Molten Strike.
That´s it then, another good skill removed. The last nerfs already brought MS close to the brink of being sub-par, this time you hit the nail on the head - congratulations, the skill is dead.

I also didn´t read a single word about the promised map stash fix in standard. Did you forget about that?

All the new changes at the same time seem too much to be honest. As I play my characters in standard about 50-75% of the time, I usually have to re-spec or re-gear them with each new league (patch notes). This time you killed 3 of my characters, an occultist, 2 MS chars. Funny enough, my sunder berserker which I haven´t touched for a while now seems to be good to go again.

So, we basically just have to wait for a looooonger time until GGG realise their mistakes and bring skills and classes back to being a viable choice.


I might take a break from the game. This permanent nerf mentality disgusts me.

Making melee actually good overshadows any nerfs really though. I liked it even when it sucked.

Hum i see almost all melee skill getting a +15/25% damage boost at least, but also getting a 15/25% less attack speed :

Spoiler

Lancing Steel
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 80%.

Smite
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 85%.

Sunder
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 75% (previously had 15% less attack speed). = Malus 10% less speed than previously

Sweep
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 70% (previously had 10% less attack speed). = Malus 15% less speed than previously

Tectonic Slam
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 80%.

Vigilant Strike
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 85%.

Heavy Strike
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 85%.

Ground Slam
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 90%.

Earthquake
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 75%.

Dual Strike
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 70%.

Double Strike
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 80%.

Consecrated Path
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 80%.

Cleave
Now has an attack speed multiplier of 80%.

I mean for all of the listed skills, that 15/25% less speed, mostly not compensated by the damage increase, just by some, with one more effect like bleed or something, i don't see this as a huge improvement or i'm missing something ?
