Build of the Week Season 2 Episode 10: Snapshotting

bah

So funny to see all the crybaby anti-snapshot kids who are bad at the game get what they want. Literally something that doesn't affect them whatsoever is changing and they're all rejoicing. Pathetic.

"Yay someone else's build is getting nerfed! This makes me feel better about being bad at this game!"

I'm glad GGG realizes how broken these current leagues are. Hopefully the balance is restored with the upcoming patches because I can't stand to play in the games current state.

saw BM summoners wreck maps.. instantly

then friend insta died to chain - +light dmg +dmg map when spikes on death pack all died at same time

figured.. risk you take for doing insane amounts of dmg


then the nerf to BM summons.. understood it but figured the GGG way was to let you kill yourself so didn't think the nerf would ever happen


made a summoner.. snapshotted with tabula rasa.. (after BM nerf).. slow killspeed with decent survivability but not great due to no life gain from leech etc... horrible compared to other builds for killspeed / survivability compared to currency invested... switched after lvl 85ish to another character

now you nerf it more? this in no way affects me now.. but wow.. do you guys hate summoners?

understood some snapshotting needs nerfed but my god buff the summoners after nerfing every part of these poor lil guys lol

also.. you guys have random drops from game all the time.. give these guys a friggen cooldown period to where they can relog and not lose all the summons they made lol

if you don't like them in game.. remove the gems so people don't wish it was viable

I am glad that snapshotting will be gone. I used to use the BMchest +Alphas howl to put on more auras in the beginning (old auras, must miss them), then it was fixed by re-casting auras on zoning.
Now it's good that this is recognized as poor design choice and will get removed.

About possible balance effect, i don't think any additional balancing is required. Summons are not supposed to be immortal. Getting a specter and keeping it alive forever, i would consider it as a bug. Some other builds might get hurt to the extent from OP to OK, nothing else.

Ok by your rasoning bosses should remove your wepons and armor when attacking you? Cause that is exactly what they do to summoners, lets give bosses a disarm mechanic that will make you weapon unusable for 5-10 sec. Then we'll see how you will act. But, it is different, you'll say. Then maybe GGG should make you leave the map and go into another zone to get your weapon back?
