Wasn't multistrike working as 'pay one - get three for the price of almost two'? :)

That explains a lot. Why do you even bother mentioning it in that case? Thats like me saying I can run Vulnurabiity with 100 INT.

SoulTaker OP advantage has never be an enourmous dps. So why arguing aroung the dps ?

Because the weapon isnt broken for cheap skills. Theres no point in running Soul Taker with Cleave if you have two insane weapons for example. The fact that it takes care of the mana cost wouldnt make up for the damage loss.

Thats why I said "granted its multistrike"

Still ends up in a lot of attacks that cost a lot and get doubled by Blood Magic.

yes the moment you add multistrike to your gemsetup its really easy to spam domblow you attack 3 times pay lets say 260 life in my case but regen and leech it back in no time

but this goes offtopic now

Chris i must ask why has there been so much attention to nerfing life classes recently? i realize kaoms is very good but it doesnt compare to a good 6l ES chest, also with the laft nerf to the aura glitch, yea it was bad, but people still chose to play CI in overabundance because even with the glitch CI characters still overpowered life builds....why continue to whittle away at life when it is already very underpowered

Which is, as you stated, only because you dont level the gem.

Thats not what I would call maximizing damage though. Its accepting that you need a specific item to properly run the skill on max level so youre basically confirming what I stated else you wouldnt have stopped leveling the gem.

Great News! Cannot wait for the new leagues.

Looks like CI/ES will still be king. If they were seriously fixing HP they wouldn't leave the old Kaom's the way it is. If you are dieing to anything other than lag or spike damage its your build that needs work. Right now the best defense to spike damage is a large ES pool. Getting 10K ES with good resist is easier than getting 5k HP. A 6 link 900+ ES tri-resist chest is cheaper and easier to get than Kaom's. So much for diversity... Path of ES nodes full release coming soon.

I am liking that the are going to start new leagues right at the release.

If they nerf the exiles are they going to nerf their loot also?

I could care less about them nerfing some items stuck in standard and HC, nerf them buff them its all the same as they do not matter.

It would be nice to see a buff for map drops. Extremely disappointing when you run a 77, and it only produces a 66. Would be nice if it could only drop -3 or -2 instead.

Also, with all of the life nerfs, you should reconsider the multiplier on the Blood Magic gem. Maybe it's time to lower it as well?

Unique items that were prevented from spawning in the challenge leagues (for example, Kaom's Heart) will continue to spawn, but they (or other Uniques) may be rebalanced at Release.

Does this mean potentially creating a nerfed version of koams upon release of the 2 new leagues?
