Weekly Beta Report Six

Don't nerf Flasks-
Buff up the weaker ones-
"
shaped strand meta


if you wont change how shaping work (shaped maps DO NOT drop maps adjacent to their position on the tree) there will be 'shaped X meta'. im affraid you will simply take painkillers to 'heal' the broken leg

sextants + sextant blocking is DUMB. it is creative idea but DUMB execution. exponential power gains, blocking sextants are not used up, huge power differences between various sextant mods..

this is a recipe for disaster and players followed each and every step to the point

if you dance around the issue YET AGAIN it is better to leave it at what it is. half-measures wont cut it

"
unique flasks


so finally after 2 years the most powerful defensive flasks (res ones) will get a 2% nerf?

maybe, just maybe, forgetting that well designed uniques combine power + drawback was a mistake?

maybe the design process that led to Vinktars flask should be reviewed? and burned to the ground


"
DoT


when you introduced 'mayor poison rework' 2 years ago i told you that you either do it well first time (and it was PREEEEETTTTTYYYY bad back then) or you screw up and then live with this OP/useless mess for years to come

1) communicate with the players what DoTs should do: be a primary damage source OR be used to augment 'hit' damage in a creative way. because most of the plaeyerbase is rather straight/simple-minded they focus on 'DoT as a primary source of damage' and cannot see that the other way is actually viable as well (napkin math attack incomming..)

2) standardize damage somewhat. it is silly that well built RT melee build barelly tackles T15 bosses when well build DoT build is pretending the world had collapsed when shaper takes 30seconds.. without it it will be ALWAYS case of 'pick the best' stuff


"
lab changes


if you want to release in 2-3 weeks it is WAY to late to do changes like these



finally: rethink the 'no changes during leagues' fiasco
Yo GGG, PLEASE HEAR US OUT ON THIS ONE. PLEASE DO NOT NERF THE EXISTING USEFUL FLASKS LIKE VINKTARS/WISE OAK, PLEASE BUFF THE SHITTY ONES INSTEAD! YALL KNOW WHAT FLASKS ARE WE TALKING BOUT.. MOST OF THESE UNIQUE FLASKS ARE CURRENTLY FUCKING USELESS. PLEASE!

The rewards for completing optional trap gauntlets and puzzles have been completely rebuilt. There are some fun differences between what they drop in the early game and the late game, but items that only take up one inventory slot feature prominently.


Could these be threshold jewels, I wonder?
I am worried that 3.0 is going to result in a bunch of slow builds running ruined shaped maps. It sounds like they want to redo shaped strand's layout to me. I have ran as a vaal sparker for the past 2 leagues and even though I clear maps pretty quickly I DIE So many times to reflect. It has become literally impossible to move past level 92. Reflect is a broken mechanic. Even with the instant leech crap setup I still die instantly to reflect. Taking away instant leech will destroy my build.

I think the fun part of the game is when you work your butt of leveling a character (which takes around 20 hours) to finally be able to do some quick casting and some reasonable damage. Please don't get carried away with nerfing everything so that every build in the game does less than 100k damage. I have played for almost 900 hours and have never had a HeadHunter, Skyforth, or any top tier items. I have never came close to beating guardians or shaper. The very fact I cannot figure out how to do these magical top tier exploits means the game is pretty broken. If I play the game for 900 hours and cannot even beat the end-game bosses it's clearly broken.

I have tried so many life builds and they all were worthless. Without the money to spend I could never get more than 4300 life. My builds were always too crappy to even farm for currency so I ended up just finding ES. Now I hear ES will be nerfed but what sort of buffs will come to life? Yeah I'm sure some people can afford 10ex or more exalts for good life gear but the average noob cannot.

I am just worried this game will no longer be fun for me after this update. I don't want to run around and experiment having to find a decent build just to clear maps at a mediocre speed which has to be done for hours straight to even farm an exalted orb. Even with the clear speed meta now it becomes extremely time consuming to farm a simple exalted orb. Things are just too damn expensive and good rolls cost to much and the currency and items required to afford better gear just never drop.

[Removed by Support] Vaal sparkers get top 10 in hc ladder quite regularly they don't die to reflect you're obviously doing it wrong. And 4.3k life what a fucking joke maybe take more than 150% on the tree [Removed by Support]

Balance for flask!? Finally <3
In order to get rid of clearspeed meta cap global movement speed at 100% but make all skills instant so everything feels great.
I hope the big announcement is the xbox beta
kinda unhappy about izaro 2nd lab nerfs.. yes lets remove anything remotely challenging.. any decent build could already kill him :(
have finally gotten used to the lab... I dont hate it anymore.:)
