fucked.

You can, just play a scion. We do not choose classes based on special abilities or whatnot, we choose them based on grid position and scion is pretty much spot-on for what you're trying to do.

Even if you don't want to you will probably be able to go through mara area, but it will cost you.

Who is this WE you are talking about?

If the skill tree ends up being anything like that press release video my Witch is going to be completely and utterly broken. Shes Freezing pulse, ghost Reaver and Vaal pact...

My current build is completely fucked by that new talent tree. There is no way from Mara starting area to ranger area.

you have to go through build specific nodes to get vaal pact, build specific nodes to get out to the witch side and build specific nodes to get to the templar side, waste points going up to conduit....

its not good, at all, theyve completely destroyed being able to move through the tree just for the sake of making this new character worth while and the result is that even that character on that screenshot is worse for going through the middle as you are forced into specific nodes for specific builds.






what build am I? Pulser? Facebreaker? Sparker? Crit Daggers? Who knows, all we can say for sure is that whatever build it was, its fucked now.

I should note that the tree has continued to undergo significant work since we snapshotted it for the media tour. It may differ substantially in the version you play.

Chris already said that the Skill Tree shown in the Press video is still being worked on, so I'm pretty sure it'll be a bit different than the official one on release.

I wouldn't be too worried, maybe they'll connect some nodes so everyone can go through the center area.

Sorry, I meant a regular player going for a certain build chooses the class based on starting position to minimize wasted points. If you build heavily off-class you are looking for a challenge and should actually be happy things got even harder.

And it makes sense, other classes have a certain flavor to them, if oyu want to go a little off you still can. But if you want to cherry-pick all over the grid you will have to pick a scion, because that's what she does, it's in her job description.

But we did see the wolf, on our television, while watching Nature on PBS. Obviously it's right outside the door.

right, so I guess we better make it known exactly what we think and why.
