This is not a game, it's more like a 9 to 5! You shouldn't be enjoying it. And you need to put in unpaid overtime, too. And work weekends. I haven't wanted to invest myself in Ambush in part because I know everything will get nerfed soon enough. Sure looks like it so far.

I may have missed something somewhere, but how exactly got LL nerfed. I heard that statement a lot but I really don't understand what is different. I know Vaalpact got "nerfed" because for 40% effectiveness. But that isn't the issue here. Can you elaborate or link me to where it is discussed?

From the 1.1.0 Patch Notes: " The way leech applies to the player has changed. If you leech additional life while currently leeching, it no longer queues after the current leech. Technically, where multiple leeches are stacked, the largest one is used. Basically, life leech is much worse now if you hit large packs of monsters at the same time, because you don't get the leech from every monster you hit, but only from the largest hit. @Searing Bond: Before I got Searing Bond, I levelled a Fireball gem. Lvl 8 Fireball + Added Lightning Damage + Fire Penetration + (I don't remember the fourth support I had) was much, much, much, much worse than a single un-supported Lvl 1 Searing Bond. Like, 1/4th as effective. That's crazy. Last edited by Amaroid#6904 on Mar 10, 2014, 6:57:58 AM	Posted by Amaroid#6904 on Mar 10, 2014, 6:55:53 AM Quote this Post
^^^^ It was in the notes it was very VERY severe towards rapid fire type of people and AoE. Those who didn't really get affected by it are large hitters such as my retired discharge who does like 9 billion damage so it didn't matter. They changed how leech works it doesn't Q rather add multiple times on an AoE burst attack thus AoE got butchered and reflect will kill you now in most cases. Btw SB is still fucking good like super mega good I'm glad they didn't butcher it.

This searing bond nerf isn't anywhere near enough. It's still an OP way to level. You can pick it up on anyone with no nodes in elementa/fire/burning damage, put it in a +1fire weapon and it will still be twice, sometimes 3 times better than you current spell LINKED.

I met Kono for the first time yesterday and wasted about an hour and half a level trying to bring him down. Opened up a public group and had several takers who got owned like me also and left. He was at full health when we gave up. I am guessing that mobs didn't get the same leech nerf we did.

" Fixed a bug where The Bolt Juggler would set Ice Nova traps when no players were nearby. Undo that was a good way to hear it! " Reduced the spike damage potential for Spinesnap and Kamaq, Soilmaker. You still got several extremly stupid mobs left. " Konu, Maker of Wind no longer leeches life. So I took the leech node for nothing?	Posted by Hilbert#4232 on Mar 10, 2014, 7:31:27 AM Quote this Post
