Problem: Ward is niche

Solution: Slightly reduce cooldown and add new ward cooldown recovery

~Fact~
Problem: Ward doesn't let us invest into it from the tree or in any meaningful way outside of niche gear or Olroth's Resolve. Basetypes are standalone pieces.

Solution: Let us invest into ward from tree as an actual defense type instead of niche access. At least ward defense on jewels or clusters???

Personal Solution: Ward lasts x hits instead of bloody 1 hit wonder that could be removed from the tiniest sneeze of a weta.

It's legit still supporting the idea of THE BEST WAY TO NOT DIE IS TO NOT GET HIT OR KILL IT FIRST.

I like ward. I want to invest in ward. I don't want to lose an entire defensive layer every 1.45 (assuming all perfect rolls of 58%) - 4 seconds if a white mob looks at me the wrong way, or an enemy ball lightning hits me a single time out of x.

I recently went back, and saw that they were still doing the same thing, but I was hoping that something would change for the better in the next league.

They definitely don't want to make this game fun, I can't deal with this anymore.

Actually, if I think about it, the nerfs are good, I know that I will not waste any more time with you looking at the forum in case the game improves, which will not happen.

They have turned PoE into a job for masochists.

only nerfs without any buffs elsewhere is really lazy and boring balancing.

there is nothing to explore or be excited for
