Rather comprehensive feedback (not kidding), because some people were asking for it

It would appear that we have a new Feedback king. 11/10 post.

Indeed.

I agree with most of notes but not with:

Vaal Orb is the worst orb here and it's purpose, it means being item sink, exposes thing I despise most in this game, it means trading dependency.

As casual player having at most 1-2 hours per day for playing, and who would like to play mostly and the best, exclusively self-found, I just accumulate Vaal Orbs as they are unusable to me. Not worth to risk on good items, not worth to yolo on crap. Just useless.

The same stands for most Vaal Skills, especially melee ones. They're just not worth lost sockets.

I must say as a casual player I love Vaal Orbs and Vaal Skills both, as Vaal Skills spice up the gameplay substantially and Vaal Orbs are a great way to waste on low-budget unique or jewelry you need to upgrade. However I agree that some Vaal Skills feel way too underwhelming.

I agree that it's unfortunate that they got that rare. As a scrubby normal player I will probably never get the chance to use the Vaal Orb recipe.

Seriously the best feedback to have ever graced this forum. i think before ggg ever do anything ever again they should read your post before doing so--- ggg u should bookmark this post.

Good post OP. I agree with almost everything accept Detonate The Dead. There needs to be cheap skills and builds that are available to all players. Otherwise say goodby to frustrated new players and their character progression.

On the topic of cold builds I so agree with the Added Cold Damage. The manna costs and low damage make playing cold builds impractical. Glacial Cascade really needs a buff at higher levels. As a non crit templar build I just can't do enough DPS with a 6 link chest and Taryn's Shiver and all the cold damage I can muster out of the skill tree. It's simply sad GGG won't slowly bring fun skills up to where they are useful.

I disagree. Vaal Orb is well worth the risk. If you have white items or mediocre items that you want to try your luck on, that's when you use a Vaal Orb. You can also possibly 6 link, which is very nice.

+1, great feedback , thanks OP

To gain smth useful out of using Vaal Orb on white item, you need item with suitable ilvl, no point in wasting it on low ilvl items. And still, even if you will be lucky to 6L something, you will be locked into vaaled colors and you will need to be lucky to roll some usable combination.

And I assure you, I wasted all SoLs I could get to get those 2 medicore ones:



And of course wanted block, not what I got. As with everything here, constant pushing "trade, trade, trade...".

I bow to you Sir.

Never have I been in so much in agreement with so many points from just one post.
A sure candidate for the "Feedback-of-the-year"-Award.
