1.0.1 Patch Notes

fun stuff - suddenly there is a market for lvl1 molten shells and end.crys again! easy money



ill miss you

Very happy about the change to monster HP in parties. Even on Nemesis where it is safer it is extremely hard to justify partying at present with the exception of maps, and even that is for cost reasons. Inevitably it slows kill speed down to a crawl, not to mention that if the group isn't on the same page then life leech/life regen rares can take forever and a half to kill.

And I don't know why everyone is so bent out of shape by the CoDT nerf. Sure, they probably made a mistake by making the gem so strong right out of the gate. But god forbid they change it so it isn't completely mandatory at the end of the game for everyone, right? Better that they make an effort to fix it rather than leaving it as is or removing it completely.

Likely the best possible nerf to CoDT. In my opinion, it should have never even existed since it automates the gameplay far too comfortably, which is unlikely what you wanted from it. It's surely enjoyable to have things pop automatically, but it's a stupidity mechanic. The game should be manually demanding to be as effective, chaining manual casts based on the situation. Not just take a random hit and pop molten shell, enduring cry for max charges, drop a decoy totem that takes 5 hits to kill or something else. Far too primitive mechanics. Consider removing it altogether please, there's no real fixing it aside keeping it in some grey area of usefulness.

automating skills is the whole point of the perk you dumbass

Do you people seriously think posts like this are the best way to convince the developers to change their game? Or for that matter to convince anyone about ANYTHING at all? Seriously? All it does is make you sounds like a 2 year old throwing a temper tantrum because their favorite toy got taken away.

Grow up, turn the caps lock off, and if you dislike a change, at least use your damn brain and try to make a half-way reasonable argument for why you think that way. Better yet, try to think about something other than just how it affects YOU and your current build and consider the overall impact on the game once in a while. And maybe even actually wait and TRY the changes before complaining too much. Because you know what? They may not be perfect, they may make mistakes now and then, but GGG has spent YEARS working on this game and they also have tons of data showing how all these skills are being used etc. They HAVE actually tested these changes out at least a little bit. So I think it would be safe to say they probably have at least a little bit better idea what is going on with them than you do.

As for my own opinion on the changes to CwDT, I'll start with the obvious: Yes, it needed to be changed. It was massively overpowered. There is just no way to argue against that. When I first got that gem, it pretty much instantly took me from struggling to just barely get by in some zones to completely facerolling them. It was obvious within a few minutes at most that it needed to be nerfed. And it was also obvious to me that when it was, it would be something that would make it so you needed to at least consider leveling the gem up.

As for the specific way they chose to do the nerf, I'm not so sure. It does look like it'll have the desired effects, but it's not how I would have done it. But no, for everyone crying about it...it doesn't make it completely useless. As soon as I saw the patch notes, I started leveling it up to see how bad it'll be. Even at level 9 so far, it no longer triggers every few seconds, but it does trigger often enough. So I'll have to wait and see, but I think at most, if they lower the damage requirements a bit like it sounds like they're already considering doing, it should be fine.

And for everyone saying now you need to take a 2k hit to trigger it now, in which case you'll be dead anyway...No. It goes off of TOTAL damage taken, not one single hit. Taking a bunch of smaller hits with time to leech life back in between will still work. And if you're taking 2k+ damage hits THAT often, sorry but you have bigger problems than the CwDT nerf anyway.

As for everyone saying now they have to unlevel all their other gems or whatever...again, no. You know what's coming. Stop whining on here and take the next day or so to level the CwDT gem up a bit so you will be able to use it.

And finally, yes, things will continue to change in the game constantly. Get used to it. Especially if you're one of those people who immediately runs to the most overpowered flavor of the month build every time.

It just feels like we are being pushed to play certain build that GGG want us to play..I mean the wander build for example thats almost impossible now..like cleave got nerfed? why? right before ST was released? thats a bit strange its like they want us to play ST to buy the damn new ST effect doesnt that make sense?
And again nerfing CODT is rubbish i think they where just bored and i want to see the data they claim to have for "testing it with dif builds" so they must have tested it with every possible scenario with every build witch in my opinion is BS cause there is always gonna be something that you dont expect and if CODT could have for example save my chars life during one of those rare happenings Im gonna be pissed

Hmmmmm...didnt think of that at all. You may have a point here.

FROM A DIFFERENT UNIVERSE, COMES SIMMILAR STORY :

CoDT was everything to me!
But they took it!
And with it They took my kindness, and my mercy!
That was their mistake!
Because now all i got left is a lvl 19 molten shell!
They thrive on nerfs, they feast on my tears!
Theese wretched Testers blight this game
And every one last of them will Perish
By my Spectral throw...

WITH DEDICATION TO CHRIS WILSON, The guy who i love/hate/admire all at the same time.

Anyone else seeing what is happening here?

GGG gave in and nerfed the unique drop in maps thing after the whine brigade came --->

Now the when brigade has doubled and makes a public outcry at double the force.

reach them a hand and they will take the whole arm, never stopping until the game completely looses its cool nice of beeing pretty hard.



A patch that increases map droprate and map boss loot, while only rebalancing a clearly OP cutter cutter gem they call "OMG RIP SOLO PLAYERS" really? i mean reallllyyyyy?

Bad players with bad specs will never stop trying to drag down the game to their level rather than improving themselfes or even admitting that they themselfes might be to blame.

Today baddys like to use the "solo" or "casual" tag alot to excuse their badness.

I agree that everyone is piling on now, but you can't just introduce a gem during a build of the week and show everyone how its used, allow everyone to use the gem the way you showed them, and then nerf it. Like another poster said, it's not like it's a kaom's heart or something.. Wait until the league is over to implement a change.. Or AT LEAST tell us how the gem is going to be changed so that we had some time to level the damn thing up instead of telling us "CoDT will be getting changed in the future". I'm sorry, I love this game and the developers, but GGG really dropped the ball on this one.

I know most of you are crying about CoDT but did no one notice that they didn't post/make any more uniques not ilvl 99? Or am I reading it wrong?
