Did they finally kill RF?

If you have 10k life/ES it's a buff actually up to skill level like 23. If you have +10 fire spells then RF sucked for damage comparatively anyway which is why every RF build uses something like Fire Trap to kill bosses later game. The huge radius buff is probably going to be appreciated by RF users and make it better for clearing. Who knows what the transfigured version will do.

10k life? even getting 6-7K was hard, how does one get 10k?

GGG has finally destroyed RF. This is only a mid-tier skill now because you will only be able to push your HP/ES to certain level and that will end the damage scaling. Skill gem level is useless for RF now.

indeed with big investment i got 5500hp on jugg

I would fully support a revolt against GGG for this skill to be reverted back to its current state. The RF skill was a very approachable skill by new players and scaled very well into the endgame. It was easily a league start skill. The changes make no logical sense to just throw away a skill that many players enjoy to replace it with something that you cant even build with until you get to red maps. The old function of RF using your max health to deal damage is awful. You cant get +1 to fire skills to boost the RF damage so it does not synergize with other fire skills you use in current RF builds.

Please do not do this change to RF.

'' Guys there is this skill called lightning arrow, its a broken league starter able to clear multiple screen away with little invest Do we nerf it?

No let's kill one of the few tanky build that doesn't even have that good of clearspeed ''

Or

'' Guys there is this ascendancy that make people basically immortal while giving them alot of power called pathfinder its used in many powerful build do we nerf it? No. ''

yeah i dont get this with GGG there are far more broken builds but they arent touched rf isnt even good boss killer just tanky mapper

I'm actually surprised this got affected more than Wardloop builds considering how good of an entry this is to the game~

I love Wardloop, but I also love RF :S

They did not kill it guys, it's back to how it was supposed to be played with a big lifepool. I loved playing it like that, not this Inquisitor RF BS which made no sense to me. I just feel bad for Pohx who has to rewrite his whole website.
But yeah one of the new RF gems will be like the old one I guess.

Still too early to tell if they killed RF because we haven't seen the Alternative Gems yet.

RF might even become the Leveling Gem then you swap to an Alternate RF Gem when you get to maps.

Edit: Just me hoping, but one of the new Alternative RF Gems might even be pure damage instead of a split between Life and Health which can be scaled up to ridiculous new heights.
