Lightbane Raiment... Nerfed?!?!?!?!

Thanks guys for your feedback. While I would like to say that it's nice to know that I'm not alone, with how bummed I am with this change I can't even say that.

Seeing as this is the only thread on it, even if it has faded somewhat, ill just put this sad note here. Had a blocked/evade/dodge based char, and used this for damage in parties. Did about 48% without curse 56%~ with curse over 8 seconds on non chaos resistant enemies. There was absolutely nothing wrong with it. 16 second kill time on any enemy is like having a facebreaker or other strong build.

Now i'm stuck with a broken chest unique that doesn't spawn corpses or deal damage. Viper strike still hasn't been fixed or given a method to increase its damage via MORE modifier, and so i now have an invincible char that can no longer deal damage in parties.

And lets face it, no ones EVER going to use a divine on lightbane because theres no point. unless its gonna give me 1.5k+ base dot to be modified by my passives or to return the % degen, it is now a garbage unique with a broken function.

50% chance to spawn desecrated ground that has no corpses, no damage, and no point. I've given GGG the stats for the chaos dot 3 times when changes were made.

Full specialization should always = decent build. Chaos damage does not meet this criteria.

Best player DOT = Burning > Bleeding > Chaos.
Best monster DOT = Chaos > Bleeding > Burning.

Bumping... any news or correction made tongive some love to this item?

Shit, really? Why in the world would they nerf something that already sucked in comparison to so many other pieces? Rofl

I want to bump this thread for the developers attention.
This is a really cool idea but you've destroyed it completely.
Can you please beef up the damage potential so we can spec around it?

Think about how much power Voll's Protector has, and it requires level 35.

This chest requires level 47 and has basically zero ability to help
you become more powerful. It's dust compared to the power of Voll's.

It should be really easy to fix this gear. It needs to be at least what it
was, and a bit more to compete in maps and end game. Please don't let crap, worthless
uniques continue. They seem like loose ends and make the game feel incomplete.

Also, the lack of attention to this kind of specialized unique also seems
like GGG wants us to not really think outside the box, and maybe focus characters into
a handful of certian specs. I know that's NOT what GGG wants, so please buff some of
these lost, amazing ideas. Thank you!

We aren't asking for OP, we're asking for VIABILITY

Thread necromancy done right!

(Still have my +1 btw)

I remember this post :( made me very sad, seemed like an AWESOME FUN build, completely destroyed XD hopefully they change some of the useless unique to be build enabling soon....that use to be the whole point of uniques, now moore then half are completely useless Q_Q.
