Wolcen Studio didn't allow a beta of the full game because they knew it was hopeless garbage, and there's no way to fix it without throwing all of the combat code away and starting over. It took them 4 years to pinch out this pile of dog shit. Fixing it would have taken them another 5 years.
I had an ailments build going and didn't realize until L56 that I had a lot of level 12 gear on, and I was still mowing things down in a snap. The only stat I have found to make a difference is weapon damage maybe. Gear doesn't seem to work. Most of their passives are broken in some way. Gems do what?
Simply put, there's no chance of this game ever becoming viable. What WS will do, however, is nerf the few good builds there are and leave it at that.
