@GGG - Could someone explain why Mjolner is having its cooldown increased? [new 2.6 changes :P]
Instance crashes, just like SRS and wormblaster.
The balance is based on instance crashes and game bugs. Not about the damage they deal. Just check how awesome is wormblaster clearspeed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2BsOIMWDWE almost 10 minutes to run a map that the meta can run in 3/4 minutes. Let's not even talk about mjolner, it takes like 3/4 minutes to kill the boss only. Next league we will have BV and BF as meta. Doing 50x mjolner discharge damage, but who cares. :P Last edited by SupaMF#6823 on Nov 30, 2016, 8:49:23 AM

" Probably more likely to be server costs. More server usage costs GGG $$$. Things that increase server usage have been scaled back (e.g. vacuum farming, charges on monsters, wormblasting, mjolner, etc). Server costs were probably also a large factor in releasing the premium stash tab trading. Scrapers were heavily taxing the forums (it would take ages just to load a forum page), raising GGG's bill from IBM/softlayer. Back on topic, my mjolner build (life jugg kingsguard) could facetank many bosses but it took 2 or 3 times longer than 2.3. Doubt I'll be playing the build in 2.5. From a thread in GD: " Or reddit:

They should just reduce both weapon procs to be in line with Cast on Crit to 500 or even 600 ms .
Edit : Be greatful that is 250 instead of 600 . Last edited by BestMageKR#3826 on Nov 30, 2016, 2:45:04 PM

well
anyone asking why Cospri's got nerfed is just simply dishonest. this stuff was and is broken. whats more interesting: it will most likely be still the best way of playing 'attack builds' (you know, using a weapon). 250 is still less than 500 mjolnr is harder to build but again - pretty damn strong. sure some snowflake builds got shafted but it is the top end that ggg has to care about (otherwise game gets riddiculed around the net and no game company likes that, it doesnt make money) i expect to see BV meta for casters, BF meta for melee and Cospri's/Discharge builds - for 11th league in the row why is the Discharge in the game still btw? pretty much every broken build used Discharge. less damage on trigger penalty was pretty laughable - xx% less of infinity is still infinity anyone claiming it is crap not worth talking about - i will buy your worhtless item for 1ex |

This nerf broke Mjölner. No reason to play it in 2.5. Even a simple blocker character will deal double or triple its damage now.
RIP. |

" Discharge, when self cast, is actually OK, in my opinion. Triggering it like a chaingun, without any significant mana ependiture whatsoever is just wrong. [quote="ScrotieMcB"]It's just, like, people's opinions, man.
