Are you pleased with Purity change... if no how would you make it

on my part all of the 3 possible scenario i imagined was way less Gem Killer than the stupid idea of GGG.
The logical ways to balance this shit was to make :

"

Purity= +1 max resist each 4 levels for a max of 5( keep 40% reserve)
Purity of Fire= +30 resist with a +1 each level (mana reserve of 20%)
Purity of cold= +30 resist with a +1 each level (mana reserve of 20%)
Purity of lightning= +30 resist with a +1 each level (mana reserve of 20%)

or

"

Purity= +1 max resist each 4 levels for a max of 5( keep 40% reserve)
Purity of Fire= +30 resist with a +1 each level & +10% fire damage with a +2 per level scaling(mana reserve of 40%)
Purity of cold= +30 resist with a +1 each level & +10% cold damage with a +2 per level scaling(mana reserve of 40%)
Purity of lightning= +30 resist with a +1 each level & +10% lightning damage with a +2 per level scaling (mana reserve of 40%)

or

"

Purity gains chaos resistance
To all resistances
instead of
to all elemental resistances

Split it into two auras (instead of 4, WTF GGG?)

One
Much like the original purity, but without any of the max resist.

Simply let it give you a bunch of all resist. Like 14-32% all resist with no influence on max resist.

Two
Similar to the new and individual split purities, but combined.

For this, it'll be max resist to all elements with all resist to go with. Now, the all resist it'll give will be the same as the max resist it gives.

Example; at level 18 or so it'll give 5% max all resist and 5% all resist to boot. Convenient and still has the same feel as the current/old purity but without also giving you a very high all resist component along side the max resist.

Your idea here

I am pleased with the purity change.

I want to make the same as it currently is / before it gets changed to the new horrid split version.

As much as i like the current version, i see the comunity agree on the fact it is OP as it is now
they went the horrible way i agree but there are many ways to change it without killing the gem

It isn't OP, and the people saying that weren't even using it before, they are just happy to see another skill they hate ruined.

Purity seems like the aura equivalent of spork totems for some strange reasons.

Can anyone even explain what was overpowered about it?

maybe the resist + the max resist together was considered too strong

I really wish that they wouldn't be quite so reactionary. They're messing with the balance of the game based on the play of people whose entire goal is to break the balance. It's leaving regular players in the lurch. Change is ok, but too much change is bad. They've added new areas to Act III that are really a whole lot tougher on my playstyle (solo-HC) than is playable. I'm butting my head up against Dominus (normal) at level 44, I've already outleveled all of act I cruel and most of act II. The fight is simply too tough. Yes... my equipment sucks. Yes, I don't have access to every skill I would want. But they can't design their game to stop everyone from advancing. D3 tried it. You had to trade. People quit.

I want Purity to be STRONG, maybe stronger then it was before the nerf. BUT, I want it to reserve so much mana, that can't run other auras.

1.5x puritys resists gained, 0 max resist reserve 60


New auras 30% reserve 4 being max resist at 20

or

New auras 60% reserve 8 being max resist at 20

ugh they should just leave the aura alone
