But yeah one of the new RF gems will be like the old one I guess.


Im sorry but that was a worse version of the skill. Theres no telling if one of the alternate versions of the skill will be better. But they made the wrong choice. They took a skill that was easily played by most people and made it more complicated and harder to use. These kinds of changes is what they should be doing to the alternate versions, not the base skill.


actually this was very well said couldnt agree more
guys RF is going to be just fine...we just need to stack 50K ES now like this guy.

It wasnt "change to more complicated". It was nerf to one of the most overused skill in last few years. Deal with it or find new build.

And I agree that TS should be nerfed years ago. But I guess someone in GGG realy likes that build.

You dont nerf a skill by giving it a completely changed mechanic. You just give it less base damage. But thats not what they did. Also no developer wants to make changes just so the community can just ditch the skill altogether.

You actually do. GGG has always said taht changing just numbers is boring and it wont fix the problem (whether it needs buff of nerf). So they rework something to buff or nerf it.
Also only people who will "ditch it completly" are those who cry on the forum that the skill is dead now. 99% of RF players who dont bother with Forum/reddit will still roll as RF or just switch to other skill as typical meta slave.
