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

maxing elemental resistances is not a big problem, so on a personal note the only reason i used purity was for the max ress boost, if the new ones give at least +4 at lv 20 i am ok with them.

I am never pleased with nerfs. Purity was taking flat mana reserve thus some builds couldn't use it because of low mana. Now they might be able to use it, but my Eldrich Battery build will have to drop one more aura. At this point, I might just drop EB fully and keep my ES as extra defense. I used purity to give me extra +3 to max res because I cannot reach Elemental adaptation (without literally wasting 10 passive points).

I don't fully understand the reason for this nerf, but I am somehow convinced that it is related to a few streamers and 0.001 of builds that somehow abused it.

Also, I am pretty sure clarity is next on the list to go from flat to 40%. BB Clarity.



god a % clarity is going to hurt alot, that will break many things for me
stop destroying core auras AFTER the game's official release.

i hope the new fire aura makes RF builds easier to build.

Hi

I agree GGG please re do all auras cost. The previous versions were to cheap so I am all for redoing costs but making it a flat percentage is horrible.

cheers

Keep it the same. Very few people even run Purity anymore. Splitting it up into 3 weaker auras is just awful. They will be totally underused outside of super organized 6 man parties. Plus you will be obligated now to level up 3 different auras and swap them in and out for various situations. What a goddamn pain in the ass.

If you want to add 3 new crappy auras to the game, sure go ahead. But leave Purity alone.

PS: LOL at these new auras being the same reserve as purity.

To the OP. Purity gaining 1 max res every 4 levels is completely overpowered. +2 max res is where it should be. Where it is currently a balanced fucking aura which shouldn't be touched in any way.

meh i dont mind it...

sure its a nerf... but lets be honest... it was so good specially for leveling and its +max res made it a must for ALL my builds. it allows you to just skip a ton of resists on gear lol


But the thing is missile, you're giving up one of the powerful new auras to run purity. You can either run two 60%s, or you can run 60% + Purity. Giving up Grace on an IR character for +2 maxres on Purity sucks and that's why nobody does it. They just cap their res from gear/passives which is pretty easy to do.
not pleased, dex/int based character i have no way of getting ele adaption anyway without wasting 20 points. purity provided a bit of extra defense when needed but as i mainly play solo/duo, i don't have room to run the new auras for the same defense. even switching elements would requires chroms or micromanaging gems before every map, i thought they wanted to get rid of all that bollocks to do with auras? my defensive options against ele damage have been further limited meanwhile parties of 5 or 6 will have even more resistances than before at no downside. path of 6 man parties ftw.

as for how i would change, idk, did it really need a change so drastic? maybe it was too cheap and 60% like other auras would be more fair for what it did. +2 max resist was fine, especially for those without access to ele adaption.
