1.0 Passive Tree

I'm looking forward to playing around with the new skill tree.

Pretty much a game in itself, and this just makes it a brand new game. I hope they finalize it soon and give us the calculator.

Think we'll have a free respec?

how about a little patience?

Don't you think the developers peek on discussions on forums to see how their designs are being discussed? and it's much easier for them to change things now than rework things after it's released.

Although granted, I think there is a lot more head-shaking than "oh that is a good point we should change that" when they read the forum posts ;)

mmmhmmm.

I 100% support breaking up the center of the skill tree. So hyped for 1.0.0! Thanks, GGG!

Also, y'all need to keep calm and discuss like gentlemen.

Anyone remember when we all started in the center of the tree? I liked that the best and thought that this "making the different classes feel unique" stuff was, well, crap.

Let me choose my character model and then spec how I want to. If the original, all-start-in-the-center tree had some issues, then please do keep the baby and only throw out the dirty bathwater!


Anyway, once they went down the road of different starting area's, I was sort of totally-over even giving a shit anymore. Let them do whatever they want with the tree and I will just figure out ways to make fun builds that are according to my favorite play-styles.

On that idea of "once they went down the road of" - given what they did previously, I do not thing anyone should be surprised if they completely gut being able to cross the center - after all, that would also place more focus on the classes, right? That was what they said they wanted, and as everyone is fond of pointing out in threads that don't even need it mentioned, this is THEIR game and they can do whatever want.

(never mind that we have been free play-testers who paid for the privilege)

CI Vaal Pact died? wtf?

I didn't read the whole thread... But am I the only one not getting why Mana Shield is close to Duelist?

(for my main witch build it's no big deal, as I can get thick skin, diamond flesh and frenzy charge in the way there, so it's not a personal concern)

Is there a chance to change the passive skill tree here on the website to V 1.0.0 before release?

I´m sure a lot of theory crafters are already impatient... ;-)

Nope. GGG will update the website tree at the same time they update the game servers.

I posted my thoughts on the preliminary tree here.

One thing I worry a bit about is ability score requirements for gems. I already felt that the two-stat classes (shadow,duelist,templar) were kind of limited in their ability to gain their opposed stat (respectively strength, intelligence and dexterity).

Not usually a big deal, but it can wreck builds (or make it very expensive gear wise) if you need some opposition skill gems.
