GGG what about Herald of Thunder no buff?
U know EO rework and HoT lost dmg, HoT 0% critical...
HoT 6L to much mana, support gems nerf to much Cost & Reservation Multiplier...
Facepalm


Either use assassins mark on hit or add base crit (cluster jewels, various items, etc) and you can get HOT to crit plenty.

6L herald of thunder usually reserves like 75% of your mana without an reservation efficiency - not really a problem.


Cluster not free spent point.
75% to much, bad. Nerf was

potential problem with mark on hit gem...remember the mana issue with mark on hit rings? Since there is no clarification in the gem that it only applies if the target isn't already marked, doesn't that mean we are getting that same old problem that the marks get repeatedly cast over and over and over again with huge mana costs each time?


The support has a 4 second cooldown if that helps any.

where seismic trap info


Patch note:

Problem:
Seismic Trap has very high damage scaling as its damage scales with increases to Area of Effect. Increasing the area of Seismic Trap impacts greatly increases the chance of multiple large bursts hitting a target, as area increases don't affect the area where the impacts can occur. Though this mechanic is interesting, it provides far too much damage for the investment cost and the damage of the skill would have to be lowered to by so much to offset this that the skill would be very weak without the overlapping mechanic.

Solution:
Make modifiers to Area of Effect apply to the area Seismic Trap's bursts can target at a ratio. This will slightly improve the area coverage of the skill while lowering the damage growth from increases to Area of Effect without removing their damage benefit entirely.


So is it 90% less with 10% of original damage overlap? Please inform me. Is it 5% of the original damage overlap ratio? Is it 95%? Is it 99%?

Would you be happy if on all the changes they buffed on spells they just put we have increased damage and damage effectiveness without disclosing by how much because that is exactly what they did here. There is no information on changes other than that it exist and what direction it headed, which in your mind is suitable.
All this talk about hand casting but blight got nerfed and it's hand casted...Maybe you only thought it was okay to half it's gem, bend it over and give it a good ole fashion GGG nerf?

TLDR:
Totems - Nerfed
Mines - Nerfed
Traps - Nerfed
CoC & CwC - Nerfed

Self Cast - Buffed.


Attack builds that dont use rare bows and use added damage gems Nerfed
When fallacious arguments aren't convincing comes the biased moderation.
This format looks very good but it would be helpful if you would write the relative difference of the numbers behind the changed or the old numbers like this:
New Effectiveness of added damage 120%
Old Effectiveness of added damage 80%(150%)

stop nerfing support gems ffs


globally, it's not a nerf. they just continue shifting power from supports gems into skill gems so balancing the new socket system in poe2 gets easier where every skill gem can have 5 support gems attached.
