Character Balance in Path of Exile: Lake of Kalandra

Nerf Trade!

Why still no (ANGER) aura buffs???
Is is so hard to lower reservation from 50% to 35%, or buffing some damage. Its like changing one line in the code. Anger is even weaker than Herald of Ash 13% more fire damage for mid and late game builds, not to mention Herald gives other bonuses and is double less reservation. You even buffed raw spell damage which even worsens Anger because with that spell damage buffs Anger is even more redundant and worse.
I don't mind nerfs if skill deserve nerfs, and i like most of the manifesto changes because i know some thing need nerfs and you can't really explain people why you are nerfing it because you made some mistakes earlier (like aura reservations) but why don't you buff things that are like non-existent in todays POE. POE has like tons of customizations and options which aren't really options because they are dead, which lowers the customizations by a large margins.

All builds obliterated. Time to start from scratch, or to move on another way.
I really hope that the only viable builds are not the same as now (but worse) making the game more path of oneshot, which is what really discourages me from keep playing

Nice S*** Storm you have created again GGG :D

I dont know what to say really but Well deserved if you ask me! xD

Yes, the bots/macro users needs to be punished.

The next league after this video was posted, GGG started nerfing necros and has been doing it consistently almost every league even since.

I don't think that was the reason... I wasn't even aware of the video. I think it had more to do with the addition of Trigger wands and other gear for minion builds that kept increasing power. I am convinced though that GGG absolutely despises persistent minions.

maybe has something to do with this.

Calls it "budget" build then says its under 40ex... This also a niche build specific for running blighted maps... Who cares!?! You can find a million non-minion build videos that a far more broken yet there is a group of players who see a minion build do something and they lose their shit.

Well, if you look at his build he did all the content with that build. And when ai say all, he has videos killing the uber bosses with a 40 ex build. That is a budget build, when most of the lightning strike items, are for example around 40 ex a piece and go up to 100 ex per frenzy charge implicit. Now, when a build of 40 ex can do uber bosses while you afk, that is OP as hell. wouldn't you agree?

Also, a million builds that can do that? tell me one more build that can do that. any build where you can afk in a map, any map and you will not eventually die.

So where are these videos of doing Uber bosses AFK? You can't AFK boss mechanics... This is the kind of exaggerated nonesense that keeps coming from the community that leads to the countless nerfs.
