Vaal Spark has been nerfed in almost every way possible.

GGG must really hate this skill. I actually laughed when I read this, because they normally don't write this in the patch notes.
But I'm happy they nerfed vaal spark. First person to reach lvl100 in the leagues won't be vaal spark this time :)

Remind me the skill that was used to get to lvl100 in 2 leagues consequently. IIRC there's no such skill, Vaal Spark nerf is nothing new.

Yes, your items have de-valued (on standard... seriously who gives a damn).

Yes, your old builds need some tweaking / re-thinking because of the crit nerf.

No, this won't break the game.

I look forward to playing the game with all the new changes every time they make them because in the end it winds up being more fun because I try new things and don't get stuck in my ways. Change is good! Nothing worse than a static game where the 'meta' (i hate that word) never changes.
Item changes are brilliant in that respect, as it means some other unique items will be seen as valuable. This means you'll consider different uniques that highlight a different aspect of your gameplay and may cause your build to evolve into something new!

Tl:dr
Stop whining, and enjoy the goddamn changes.

i found an easier way

stop playing PoE and start Black Desert
better combat, better engine, better devs, better graphics, better gameplay

win/win situation
new way to spend cash without needing to worry about some crazy as fuck devs doing whatever they please and an ignorant community (you as expamle) which hypes everything GGG ever does.

you all seem like some smurf forum accounts from chris.
totally brainwashed

I think people at GGG are starting to lose it lately, working hard is good but maybe they need to cool of a bit to give themselves the chance to think more clearly. At this rate they are begging to slowly go out of business.

dang phmn you da man
+1

The easiest way is not always the best way.
You and many other people don't seem to understand what GGG are trying to do. They are not the ignorant ones, it is you.

I really don't understand why people get so upset when overpowered builds and gears are nerfed. I mean, I played last league with OP poison storm build, with OP gear and stuff, trivializing every map and boss (including uber), it was fun for a while but then it became boring after a while, no challenge, no thrill of dying. I really appreciate all the OP build and gear nerf, there has to be balance between player damage and content.

They F*-ed mirrored item owners in the ass. How could they recraft their gear when mirrored items are not craftable any more? Also thank God I do not own any mirrored BiS items.

the mirrored items are fine, the only ones that would need to be changed at all are the mirrored swords, the vaal rapier and the exquisite blade. They cant bless their implicit multiplier to the new values, so the rapier lost 10% multi and the exquisite lost 25%. None of this effects rare crit multi suffixes.

2) HARD CODE to detect if a divine are used in an item that contains LEGACY wording/mod (+x% increased global vs. +x% to critical multiplier) the following rule applies:
- Check if the items contains the legacy wording/mode
- If yes even mirroed or corrupted item will apply this: only the legacy wording/mod value will be replaced by the PROPORTIONAL correspondent new value.
- Your divine will not be consumed.

I dont think they can do that because the wording is going to be changed and all the items that currently have crit multi will change with it. If you have 38% multi on an item right now what is stored on the item is the number 38 and the tag that points it to the crit multi line in the database. It pulls that wording "% increased critical strike multiplier" from the data base, so when they change that line to be additional then all the current crit items will change to additional too, there will be no legacy crit multi stat.

The values are not changing on rare items, existing mirrored weapons for example, a dagger, it has 38% increased crit multi suffix, top rolled t1. The text will change to 38% additional crit multi automatically when they change the data base. The new t1 top roll will still be 38% additional crit multi. The only items that are going to need to be divined to get new rolls are these...

Divine Orbs are required to update the following to their new values: All craftable Jewel mods which grant Critical Strike Multiplier, Facebreaker, Marylene's Fallacy, Fragment of Eternity (the Descent: Champions Unique), Bino's Kitchen Knife, Romira's Banquet, Shadows and Dust, Ungil's Harmony, Eclipse Solaris, Death's Harp, Mortem Morsu, The Goddess Scorned and Abyssus.

I just got a boner ._.

+100 this!

Who cares? I care. Such a stupid comment. I don't care about fucking leagues. Starting as an idiot over again. I'm not that dumb. So yes I care about standard.

Massive hypu ! Although I can't play until sunday ...

Don't support the Crit Multi Nerf

Nice Patch.
Love Zana now. :D
New League = no life time.
