Clueless :) You guys have no clue haha RF dealt dmg because of lvl 27 gem that you forced which is 7167.2 base dmg. So even with 15k hp or shields you lost like 80% dmg now hahaha

7167.2 / 0.7 = 10,238.9 of Life or ES. Not 15k.

"No longer Deals 39-2447.9 base Fire Damage per Second. Now deals 70% of your Maximum Life and Energy Shield as Base Fire Damage per second (both previously 35%)."

Buff isn't 70% but 35%. In other words 35% to 70% that is 35% get it, why you even respond with that stupid answer like srs? You need 20,477 hp actually so i was even generous with 15k, gl getting that.

Lmao so you get back that dmg with 12k life or shield which is kinda ok, but if you played RF you know that RF dealt dmg because you had lvl 27 skill gem, with which RF dealt 7167.2 base dmg hahaha
I expected nerf and was ready for it, even big one but this is like insane nerf :) You now effectively lost like80% dmg.
Anyone know how we could replace this to have decent clear speed now, is flame dash now viable to replace with something i highly doubt it but maybe?

Not idea if you are trolling?

70% of 12.000 is 8400.

With 5k Life you get 3500 fire damage, so that's around 21% more damage than before. (2447)

Time to get back to elementary school to learn basic math?

Haha nice elementary school teachings you had. Buff isn't 70% but 35%. In other words 35% to 70% that is 35% get it, how dumb can you even be? You need 20,477 hp actually, gl getting that.
Its not that hard just use brain and do this 7167.2 / 0.35 = 20,477. I just hope your elementary school teachings can carry you.

Some of you play the same build every league and it shows.

This is great stuff! While I am a bit sad at the thought of losing all of my
alt quality gems, it will be awesome to see the new builds that come from this change.

Ashes was overpowered anyways, glad to see it nerfed a bit. There should be build and item diversity. This opens up a large amount of new options. Game is too easy as it is with the power creep over the years and is over saturated with content.

At the end of the day, it is a game.
Imagine if some of you put this much emotion into your daily lives :D

7167.2 is a level 28 RF, not level 27, so level 21 gem, +2 from amulet, +2 from scepter, +2 from empower, +1 from shield; very achievable on a moderate (10-20 div) budget. You could get a few more levels, but it starts getting a lot more expensive for just a little bit more damage; you might get a few hundred thousand more DPS where a lot of other builds would get tens or even hundreds of millions of DPS on the same investment.

That's only the gem level damage though, it's not counting the additional 35% of life and ES, which at 5k life (a typical amount) would be another 1750 base damage, bringing the total to 8917.2 base damage. That 5k life RF player will now need 12,739 life just to get their clearing skill to do the same amount of damage, all the while their single target gains nothing from that extra life and still requires investing in gem levels.

If the RF player instead had 8k life (a well above average amount), it'd instead provide an additional 2800 base damage, for a total of 9967.2 base damage. That 8k life RF player will now need 14,239 life to get their clearing skill to do the same amount of damage, and again their single target gains nothing from that type of scaling.

Realistically, someone playing RF and doing gem scaling and still managing 8k life is already doing a higher investment build and would probably have already gotten their RF to level 30 (or higher) rather than level 28, so that means an extra 2,163.4 base damage, bringing the total up to 12,130.6 base damage (for a level 30 RF with 8k life). To achieve the same damage with the change to RF, that same RF player will now need 17,329 life, and it's again worth repeating, all that life investment does nothing for their single target, it just gets their clearing skill up to where it can comfortably clear the trash.
