Naw these perform better the attack speed is what you want with blade flurry and + 140% global damage is pretty good.

Like I'm actually mad because people literally overhype this skil and that's the REASON why I picked it to confirm it was broken af turns out it's just a basic average fucking skill

Crit build ?
Maybe you are just being used to godlike setups, really sounds like it.

And don't forget that it has been nerfed already.

How does it compare to your starforge lacerate build by the way ?


Oh it's much better that lacerate build was dogshit maybe because it had hp and all.

Actually, you just missed the point.

I figured there would be the ES vs HP problem :3
I meant more about clear speed, damage against big targets and positioning.

BF is broken. Needs to be nerfed immediately. Same with Summoners, and Flameblast. They are the next up on the chopping block.

Mid league nerf might even be warranted for these skills.


Are you even paying attention to what's happening around you? Lol. Even streamers are having a terrible time with this skill now that they are forced to actually play it in a new league. This skill only highlights the issues of attack builds and WHY bf should not have been nerfed.


I am paying attention yes. I am currently facerolling the fuck out of the game with Blade Flurry. And I had 2K+ exalt CoC and Cospri builds. Blade Flurry is just as OP and my gear is not that strong yet.

Bladeflurry and Pizza Totems are dominating HC breach and SC Breach too. Hell i rolled a pizza totem on SC breach and have barely touched it. My gear is garbage and im instakilling everything.

Both builds need to be nerfed into the ground hard.

Like once more some of you over fucking hyped and I'm in god gear as usual and once again It's NOT that fucking special it's NOT god like super amazing blade vortex.

Twin


Like I can make a pizza totem and clear / kill faster then the shit char I made if I wanted too

Does it kill everything? Sure good gear good skill etc? Same skills can do the same derp derp etc does this skill become super ultra god amazing like the community said?

Fuck no fucking overhyped it So fucking overhyped. Do you know why I ran this skill because you community said this was the most broken skill in the fucking game now is it? No FUCKING no


Because this guy said so: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1769788 so sheep were like this guy knows all and sees all so I need scourges.

I'm telling u Varus are better. Slightly but they are better. Attack speed is only needed to get the max stacks as fast as possible, after that, it's worthless for damage because you're already at max stacks, except now you're doing less damage per hit because you went full autismo 8 AS and hit like a wet noodle but like a zippy wet noodle.

The skill is still pretty crappy compared to say Barrage that can like one shot Uber Atziri with gg gear. BF doesn't even come close. And you know they'll nerf its damage once the league ends anyway, after its max sale of course.

As soon as you said CoC cospri wasn't as good as blade flurry you lost every shred of credibility you might have had. CoC cospri shield charge is the build that cleared strand in 20 seconds.

The point where a build requiring tons of investment isn't as good as a build that works with a driftwood wand and a 3 link and hasn't seen a nerf since two years ago?

I'm pretty sure you're the one missing the point.

I'm sorry that it makes you angry but its true. Here is my CoC gear. Its been modified slightly because i adapted it to play Corspi's. I am currently playing Bladeflurry and it's on the level of that build. The damage and survivability is fantastic and bosses/mobs melt like butter. I am speaking from experience....

Furthermore clearspeed is not everything. Boss Killing Power is extremely desired in this meta.

.......
I'm making a point ( which was pretty obvious ), and you just understood something else, hence you missed the "point" that I was making.

The point is ( because .. you know, you're still missing it ) :
- Pizza sticks is OP as fuck, we don't need such OP possibilities, like ever,
Gear in this case is irrelevant..

But talking about gear, it's even more true if it's cheap.
And BF is not particularly expensive, you can scale it with crazy top-tier gear, but you don't need it to get it rolling.
You can clear with a 1-2 chaos weapon as much as you can pizza stick with a 3link (LOL, that one is particularly funny to be honest, it's /facepalm worthy ).
SSF is not and will never be a standard for balance, it is not for people entitled to getting more without trading.

I'm not exactly sure why you would want to use Dual Scourge, I doubt the increased damage and wolf offsets the advantage of either a shield or Deaths Hand.

Again I'm not really sure what the point is right now, nobody is actually asking for BF nerfs, so people are actually arguing for the same thing from a different perspective. One argue the skill is not too weak and the others argue the skill is not too strong but neither side sees a need for nerfs.

Yes the Clear Speed is really good but a) Is that the current system GGG envisions or doesn't want to touch (Chris gave a good example they feel that a lot of players like it and they don't want to make a healthy change right now which would still feel bad for players.

It is not the strongest in terms of AoE although I'm kinda at odds with people always bringing up reave, which doesn't have such a good AoE, the only melee skills with comparable AoE are Lacerate and Earthquake (and Groundslam, but it sucks), but neither of those skills has so much damage, you need a higher gear level for at least Lacerate to use Inc AoE over Conc Effect or to use Inc AoE instead of another damage support. Blade Flurrys high damage allows Inc. AoE even on a 4l.

So the skill got a nerf which pushed from being straight out better skill for AoE and Single Target more towards the single target area, while still performing well in AoE situations.

Well technically he said CoC and Cospris, not CoC Cospri :P but I doubt he made a Cospri build purely to create fancy effects, so it likely still was one. But still BF and also BV allowed you more control over what happened and some players feel more powerful if that is the case. From the pure dps Cospris should outperform Blade Flurry, but again Blade Flurry provides a very powerful feeling, because you actually get incredible feedback on releasing 6 Charges because you actually see how much more damage you are doing that way compared to not charging up much.
