Ok, by "chance" I mean the range of possible mods shrinks, so at 110 you can mods of t5 to t12, while at 163+ its t10 to t12. Its not like a t12 has a 5% chance at 110 and a 35% at 163.

Edit: Getting this from the wolcendb site.
Ahh that makes sense. Yeah then 163 is the way to go.

Beat the campaign, ran a few rifts and quit the game. These guys took parts from PoE and D3 to create a Frankenstein monster game. Gave it a good try but it's not for me. Just can't do it in it's current state.

Here's Quin69 review of the game if anyone is interested.



My beefs are pretty small. The inventory bugs are a PITA. Getting stuck on terrain is annoying as fuck. Things like that. I also hate that mele pretty much MUST spec for rage management before the combat doesn't feel janky. But once you do, it's pretty fun.

I got caught in the monolith bug and couldn't complete the campaign. I finally found a public game and jumped passed that step and completed it.

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.

This isn't true man.

Gear definitely works since I play a mele class and can pretty much tell instantly when I get new gear IF the upgrade is large enough.

Gems work also. I removed my block gems and knew I forgot them, 1st boss fight without them.

The game has it's issues to the point I asked for a refund...But outside the ailments (since I haven't used them), everything I have tried gear/skill/passive wise has worked up until level 50.

If they ever fix this shit, and thats a big if, this game is a nice middle ground between basic D3 shit and PoEs super complex, will take a few leagues to figure out, game play.

So if I am reading this correct they have completely gutted BE and did an effective nerf to WG that makes sense.

They also nerfed a ton of crit nodes for what reason I don't know.

They might have buffed summoners but I don't know anything about them.

They buffed zero skills that I can tell. It looks like I am just uninstalling because it's just going to be a slog to kill anything end game if I read this correct. Luckily I care more about PoE anyways.

I could be very wrong about these patch notes but it really seems like everyone is going to have a tough time.

Yeah RIP wolcen, lol. I see no other skills other than maybe ailment stacking mage being any good, and even mage got a nerf in crit nodes?

I honestly thougth that they would fix/buff some other skills first before rolling this nerf shit out but I guess I was wrong. Meh, ill revisit this shit in a year and see how it is.

Sorry for the segway but that pic reminds me of a time when in Paris in 2017 on vacation on our family's European tour which took us all over the place. (Mostly some very good WW2 sites) and it was my Mom, Wife, Step Son, Step Daughter.Step Daughter was 17 at the time.

We went on a dinner cruise on the River that basically shows off the entire city. They ask how old our daughter was. "17". Proceed to hand her the kids menu and then ask her if she wanted Champagne or wine.

Key point: There is still hope for France, and this game. (As long as they show up to the office and not surrender)

They will most likely deny it. I was 10 hours in but wrote a long detailed reason why I requested a refund even explaining the last boss was bugged and I couldnt proceed further and they denied it. Reason why I past the 2 hour mark.

Wait what, they went from having everything overpowered to gutting everything? I was thinking about buying this once they'd patched it a few times.

Yeah, I've never, ever had Steam refund a game once you pass the 2 hour threshold. I've had 2 they've refunded at 2 hours, but never anything beyond.

Will be an uproar:

The Critical Damage bonus has been reduced on many nodes: from 20% to 15%, from 14% to 10%, and from 10% to 5%.

So watching some streams right now and I guess we were all wrong, bleeding edge is still viable.
