Trigger Nerf

I'm sick about this nerf. This morning I was finally enjoying the slog through the maps...and now it's back to slogging with zero fun.

Problem is some no life math nerd comes up with exploitative ways to build around the strongest gems, items, etc. They crunch all the numbers for days and hyper-optimize a setup thats extremely OP.

Normies see the build showcase on youtube and attempt to copy the build en-mass.

Lots of players who aren't following a guide come up with something similar because it's clearly a strong option, but its not as optimized.

GGG catches wind of the video and then basically ruins the entire concept by heavy handedly nerfing the everloving shit out of it.

It's a story old as time lol.

It's annoying that GGG broke the entire playstyle, which was fun and powerful because some math nerds created broken builds around it. There have to be more refined and calculated ways to nerf the top end power, while not bricking the playstyle.

Thats why people like imjungroan (empyrian also) are a plague/godsend for GGG. God-tier player but he looks for 'exploits' to create a build around and abuses it. Look at the ring he created 'Nimis' where it screams broken.

they KILLED all triggers
Very disappointed how badly the nerf bat hit.
Disapointment. Only starts to fell like having fun on maps, and then ULTRANERF. Cant imagine waht casual players feels .
Cast on ignite was also nerfed its nolonger procing for me its doing 1% per ignite so now its procing maybe every 20-30 packs? seems odd to destroy half the damage
having fun is just not allowed. in all the trailers and teasers from the past you could see they want you to dodge around and manually use 5 differnt skills for each pack.

and btw spirit cost for for trigger gems is still 60? reserving 60 spirit for 1 cast per 20 packs or 2 casts per boss? WOW
I think a nerf was definitely needed.Cast on freeze every time you freeze was a bit too much.
But as so many said before...this nerv destroyed the entire play style.There has to be another way than make CoF nearly useless and I hope GGG will adjust it in the future...
