ya, I agree man, theres places where new top tier mods could be cool but Qarl please dont invalidate everyones gear by adding new top tier mods for key stats like ipd, flat damage (flaring etc) life, % defense, flat defense (es, ar, ev), attack speed, local crit chance and multi, resist, movespeed, spell damage, cast speed. I feel like the game doesnt need them, at all, so if it doesnt need them and if you invalidate perm league high end gears for the sake of it, thats going to be so horrible, thats exactly the diablo model style thing you guys have always said you didnt want to do and if you do it I think a lot of us perm league players are going to take very, very badly to it. If you invalidate 2 years of what weve worked for, a lot of us arnt going to stick around for another 2 years because while you left it open without guarantees you stated you didnt want to do this and theres no need for it. Im not playing a game where higher mods are added for the sake of it making what Ive worked for second class. People who play ladders wont be effected either way, it literally doesnt matter for them if you add new top tiers or dont, it only effects perm players and only effects us badly imo. I play ladders too of course, but if you mess with my perm gears then I wont be playing anything tbh, it just sends a clear message that nothing I work for is worth working for. I dont want to sound QQ and doom n gloom but thats honest feedback, so it is what it is.

If youre talking about stats like life regen, life on hit, life/mana on kill etc that currently dont scale to a point where even the top rolls are significantly useful in endgame, thats awesome. Thats a change Id really love to see in the game.

i feel the same!

of course it matters for ladder people, if adding new top tier mods makes the actual t1 / t2 easier to obtain on gear, gearing on ladder for 75+ mapping will be easier (for builds that rely on gear) and besides, i dont get it, your clear speed wont be altered by new t1 mods, there will just be better mods available which will only matter if you are a perfectionist

The changes introduced so far have improved sync in regular predictive mode

Hm, I've played Cyclone in the beta and desync is worse than on live realm.

Cyclone in CB doesn't pass through mobs smoothly and it gets "stuck" the bigger the mob (hitbox), so maybe this is the cause for more desync?

I am a fk perfectionist but I don't want to farm another year to obtain newest t1 stuff and I don't want my current t1 gear to be devaluated by 50% just cause there're new t1 mods out there. Like it's been mentioned there's currently no need at all in doing that kind of (dumb) stuff in perma leagues.

Feel free to implement new and interesting mods but not higher tier mods. If lvl 90 content is being released current BiS items will be able to handle it without any issues.

If GGG does this shit I'm out forever and will rather support other companies with my money. And I truly don't think I'll be the only person who's going to quit. Simple as that.
