Cast on Crit needs to go

"
Cast on crit was heavily nerfed with how leech is now working. You wont be seeing it like it was with BM comet anymore as you cant sustain the cost


Spells triggered from cast on crit doesn't cost mana. Are you talking about one very specific build out of possible hundreds and presenting the build as if it were the only one in existence?

Yes.
Because those are two different things.
If Ascendance distribution would be closer to each other in percentage of ex. level 100s, we are achieving balance across the Ascendance, and that is what this particular post is about.
On top of that I may make post about Abilities usage distribution, which is also Combat Balance topic, but different variables would be on the table.

You guys brought "meaningful combat" to the topic. And that is another subject honestly.

Also - i dont know who Quin is, i don't watch content creators. I make my own builds.
What am i envious of?

So you are trolling or what? Advocating to nerf CoC and look you down on the screen-wide explosion players... while you go for screen-wide explosion shit as anyone else.

It took me 4 leagues to polish that build to this point btw. Melee off-meta self-made build and you are picking on it xd.

I was also advocating for Leech nerfs while using it. Because I experienced first hand how op it was, thus gave feedback to nerf it.

Once again, Combat Balance > Feelings.
Pretty shocking someone could care for the game health more than his own easiness of experience, right?

"Self-Made" does not equal "Off-Meta".

Using "Herald of Ice" and "Herald of Thunder" on a monk with screen-wide explosions is actually meta since 0.1

How do you know that your perspective on "how the game should be" is the healthy one? Because that's kinda subjective.

I want to make trigger builds, they are a fun way to solve game's combat. Should they be hands down the best way to build a character? No. (But also, forums would always believe that something's "too good" when it's just one of the strong builds.)

Anyway, if you're deleting stuff, delete Comet. "Added cast time" makes it unpleasant to self-cast and lucrative to trigger-cast, you can't really balance the damage numbers for both cases.

I Like how you disregarded the fact of "the monk" being Chonk actually, which is considered underplayed and off-meta (or even just bad by some people). Also I used HoI technique based on Chaos damage, not Physical damage, which i figured on my own. Herald of Thunder got replaced with Charge Regulation in the end. You should put more effort into invigilation before accusing.

Yeah, it is subjective, that is why i support it with statistics of level 100s distribution in case of this post, which are objective.

And I may be wrong about CoC, the issue might lie somewhere else, but 40% of level 100 characters are Bloodmages, which is a fact.
I am leaving what to do with this to GGG as stated in my original post:
"
Please consider working on that GGG.

Instead of "DESTROY COC WITH LASER FROM SPACE".

Perhaps everything will be fine after Leech changes and this post can be ignored completely. We will see how it goes by looking at 0.5 stats after it runs for a while.

Please learn to agree to disagree, it really makes life easier as well as makes you look more mature.

Sure, AoC Monk is the least popular of the monk ascendancies, but it's not like it's the worst of them... like... you know that there is a Chonk who has beaten Arbiter of Ash without gear equipped?

It's similar to Witch ascendancies... Abyssal Lich is the least popular of them, but probably the most broken.

Idk man... your HoI and HoT look like HoI and HoT to me in your video.
It's not like I could take a look at your character... your profile is private.
