Going with the brandead choice and gonna try out huntress, will likely switch to quarterstaves if I dont end up liking the spear playstyle, but it does look like it could be fun.

Unfortunately I won't be able to start until tomorrow or Sunday.

Im gonna try lich/spectres to start as I suspect huntress gear to be in huge demand early.
Yea I was thinking the same, but I don't see me using SRS and Minions again. I burned out on casting firewalls.

Maybe some new cool spectre builds will pop up. Think I'll start as Huntress then see what they figure out with minions.

Brink support? Is that a Chinese client teleport skill or something?
More damage against stunned enemies, cannot stun.

Supposedly(I didn't play maces), the major drawback to Boneshatter in 0.1.0 is that the skill used to prime the target should not also stun the target as that removes the priming. Obviously, you can't prevent stun globally as that bricks Boneshatter, so you need a way to prevent stunning on a skill scope. This support does that.

Leap Slam/Rolling Slam/Shield Charge into a pack, blow them up with Boneshatter. Supposedly, the stun pulse can propagate itself but I'm suspicious of that. I've heard the same thing said about PoE1 Boneshatter and it's absolutely not true.

Probably Mace Strike and HoTG for single target.

Is this game still just for neck beards willing to grind their life away to escape the reality of their own failures or do actually useful items drop now?

Gas/Explosive grenade got huge damage buffs to compensate for the cooldown changes.

Most mace skills got ~20% damage buffs, except hammer of the gods which lost 50% lol.

The smith temper thing looks unplayable - only lasts for 4 attacks after channeling it. Doesn't matter how good the damage is, no chance I'm putting up with that mechanic every 2-3 packs.

Spark lost damage in addition to all the projectile nerfs lmao

Yeah sparkmage is done for now. DMG/projectile nerfs, mana nerfs, and Eldritch Battery doubles mana cost on top of MoM 50% mana degen.

Can't bring myself to log in. I don't love the campaign and I hate the end game so it feels kind of pointless.

Got to the rust zone and quit the huntress for Witch and Minions. I just can't commit to early game melee. it takes too long to kill shit and I die all the time lol.

GGG has to be one of the absolute worst "AAA" companies at graphics optimization. My performance is total dog shit since since the last patch.

Can't wait for LE.
