I hate that you are always doing this. Why is it so hard to write "The 20% Physical Damage multiplier when Dual Wielding has been removed" instead of assuming every player nows all the million numbers of this game? Please just be specific with you patch / balance nodes and don't have us look up every other sentence. Same for item changes.

Also "Vaal Molten Shell also removes and is removed by other Guard skills".. what about CwDt triggered guard skills? Is it discouraged to use a CwDt setup alongside VMS, or is CwDt suppressed while other guard skills are up?


You can´t trigger Vaal skills.

So the best way to make players use 2H is killing DW?

Unfortunately they are just doing what wow did with patch's nerf one build to make you use the ones they want its very lazy programming and very disapointing for me to be treated this way .
And also the alienware laptop competition its only for the top echelon of players , so either a rmt player or a streamer , the people who DONT need a new laptop .
curious if anything happens to Dancing Duo, cause i play that shit every league since bestiary and it falls into the two-handed category XD
NOT HAPPY to hear about the Shakari Pantheon nerf. Acquiring the upgraded version cost my highest level character a lot, and it has saved her bacon many times. (She's an atypical non-meta build.)

I'm wary about the changes to two-handed weapons, but I guess that we'll know more when those changes come into effect.

hello noob here.
i am standard only player. (starforge)
will this patch effect my character in standard too?

thnx.

Yes but probably not SF item.



oh my god please.

i have yet to beat any of the bosses in atlas and it is going pretty smooth with my build. i have to reach delve 300 so many things to achieve with this build.

i loved this thing so much i went and bought 60$ supporter pack. now i can't achieve anything? how is that logical?

In fact they are buffing two handed gameplay and adding lots of things to support it (new warcries, passives etc).

Cyclone seems unchanged except loosing stun immunity (easy fix).
Starforge will be changed but probably not the current standard version.

We will see tomorrow in the patch notes.
If I were you I would save passive tree in Path of building planner.
We should be getting free passive reset.
Don´t worry:)

Don't mind my post
Is the nerf to Starforge/Hege really necessary? They'd have to be buffing the hell out of the 2H passives to compensate for the DPS loss. Starforge is an endgame drop, it should be pretty powerful. If it's going to be easier to craft a more powerful rare with all the Harvest crafting options then what's the point really?
Damn GGG you really hate melee builds.
Probably fixed 2handed while killing other melee to force the meta
Heres hoping tommorows patch nots dont have another melee "this is a buff" that was actually a huge nerf that was a fun read 2 leagues ago
So many changes:)
G.G.G. is Awesome!!!
