Dear GGG, you forget to nerf Deadeye

OH WAIT, Deadeye is the Golden Child of GGG. Silly me, ain't no way Deadeye gonna be weak ever.

Like seriously, even Invoker and Quarterstaves build gets a blow in this patch, and yet Deadeye still just happily sitting there with insane speed, and with introduction of Spears and Tangletounge, T4 pinnacle still be able to be deleted in seconds on top of having clear speed that not a single archetype in this game currently can rival. Stat stacking quarterstaves with Pillar of Cage God was an outlier and certainly deserved to be nerfed and as well as Polcirkeln, but a non-stat stacking quarterstaves build is a solid build. None of it was insanely overpowered in term both clear speed and single target, let alone rivaling Deadeye Spear build.

I extensively play Invoker quarterstaves build in 0.1 in SSF so I know how it plays out. I did my 4th ascendancy at 16 December 2024 (before any Trials of Sekhema nerfs) at lvl 86, finishing all atlas points for pinnacle bosses and reached lvl 96, and finally migrated to trade league and switching to Pillar of The Caged God build. It was a solid build with good single target dps and decent clear speed with Herald of Ice and Thunder tech. But now ? Not only its single target dps nerfed, the clear speed also nerfed, and the spirit node also nerfed. While Deadeye still sitting happy there.

This is just one example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fn5ulkcFGj8 . Fubgun also able to kill T4 Xesth in more or less same kill-time with Wind's Serpent Fury. But they key here is Deadeye. Why Deadeye with Spear is allowed to be like this, but not with Invoker with Heralds and Tempest Bell ??? Why Herald chaining with other Herald is a problem, but not with Lightning Spear that does not need a certain elemental ailment condition to activate its screen-clearing effect ?

Make it make sense, why one is allowed but others are not ? What is the line ? WHERE IS THE LINE ? And don't tell the players that its an "oVErsIgHt" , its a lazy excuse that just shows that you, GGG, don't really test and play the game in the same shoes as players. Ritual infinite reroll Unique Tablet hello ? Someone at GGG design this unique, pass it into upper management and they say "yep, looks good and cool. ship it to finalize the item" and boom, it was in live server for a shortwhile. Anyone that plays the game will instantly know how stupidly broken that Tablet was.

Oh and yea I also one of those "sheep" that play "copy-pasta" build of one-tapping the entire screen. Why ? Because there is 0 incentives for me to play the game in the "slow and methodical" combat, when speed and damage is the answer in this competitive economic environment. I don't want to sit only with 2 divines that I found by luck, and struggling to grind exalt, and I can't reliably find upgrades, and all the upgrades that reliable to be earned are in the market while they cost fortune. Thanks to the casino-slot style that GGG call it as "crafting".

Agree. Needs nerfed into the ground.

Shooting should only be possible while not moving, otherwise it's not methodical.

I hope they nerf your copy cat easy mode build into the ground.
