You sure it's not: - Less is increased - Reduced is more - Reduced is increased - Less reduced, causing it to be an increase on a stat multiplicative to other but additive with itself causing more overall We gotta be specific here. Those things can be more (NOT increased) important than you think. I make dumb builds, therefore I am.	Posted by FCK42 on Jun 6, 2019, 10:24:50 PM Quote this Post
interestingly, one gem i think should be changed around from an increased modifier to a slight more modifier, like 19% or so, is Faster Projectiles	Posted by xMustard on Jun 6, 2019, 10:47:04 PM Quote this Post

Spoiler disclaimer. this is a quote from a 'the simpsons' episode. it by no means discriminates against the LGBTQ+ community or otherwise. it is fully intended to be a joke, AKA humour, by referencing the most popular cartoon tv show of all time. Spoiler i fully expect it to still be removed by support Last edited by xMustard on Jun 6, 2019, 10:55:22 PM	Posted by xMustard on Jun 6, 2019, 10:54:43 PM Quote this Post

Those things can be more (NOT increased) important than you think. Stoppu! Jokes aside, I have observed a general trend away from the term 'increased damage' on attack gems. I can't say it's absolute but most skills that used to be 'increased' are now 'more' -- for example, Fortify. Conversely, there's mostly 'increased' in the Skilldrasil. This is a quiet but significant melee buff imo, but does nothing for basic intuition or clarity. Baby steps I guess. I tried to rewrite the whole increased/more thing with a Valued Poster a while back but was shut down pretty early by a kindly dev who was like, don't fuck with an animal's DNA just because you don't like how that animal looks. Not in so many words, but that was the takeaway. I was browsing and had to log in to say I'm adding Skilldrasil to my vocabulary. Thank you!

Blood and sand (10%) Flesh and stone (25%) Both let you switch stances, as far as I know. OK i see the other now, still 10% mana reserv just to switch is uncalled for, and 25% for the other is too much 10% mana reserved for 15% MORE DAMAGE is too much for you?
