shield base stat nerfs ar/eva/es

pretty sure that just resulted in legacy shields? i know there are legacy ES shields around.

It's not about buff or nerf. Their approach has been consistent, albeit perhaps confusing to an observer. It's already been said a few times in this thread, but for your benefit: leave no legacy when possible, leave a legacy when necessary.

Also, LSN said base stats. Not affix. They also affected the affix at the same time, ergo legacies. Base stats were nerfed the same way as CoE is, because it was possible.

what is your problem man?

i agreed with you previously, that there are 'smelly' reasons for legacies (friends of friends have long history in indie mmos etc) but now i simply do not know what is this entire talk about

what is the problem?

that they are fixing a broken item? i hope not

that gamble to buy 20 of COEs and sell them as legacies didnt pay off?

that old legacies pollute standard while it was possible to do it the 'clean' way (ignoring these soft lies about 'technical impossibilities' - i do not believe ggg since theyve shown generated uber items in their molten strike BoTW thread.. that was unbeliveable what they did then))

or something else

so what is the problem?

btw - prices hardly moved as people with a hint of brain did the math and they know that this 'nerf' hardly makes a build 'bad'. it changes 'absurdly powerful' build into 'absurdly powerful' build. currently - with implemented nerf - LL COE builds are still the best builds out there. so what is the point of this whine?

gamers and communities went downhill since games have 'economy' and greed rules everything

my main problem is that they don't give the community much advance notice of these changes, which to me shows hostile intent on the part of the developers.

there's literally zero reason not to give everybody as much advance notice as possible.

instead, we either get zero advance notice (most common), or very little.

the ONLY REASON to not give everybody as much advance notice as possible...would be to allow time for a smaller group of players who know, to take advantage of this knowledge. that's it. there's no other reason.

Come to think of it, since anger and wrath does not work with spells, isn't abit unfair to use these passives to scale the damage of these auras?(sincere quetion)

lol, OP is just showing off his gear

you know good and well that losing PA is just a nerf in dps, and not a massive one either.

your out-of-touchness is showing. yes CoE needed to be nerfed, but to say it's not a massive nerf to his build is downright ignorant.

archer builds don't have access to inc spell damage rolls (as bows and quivers don't have them) -- pain attunement would be basically the only reason to use CoE as an archer.

i mean sure, you can get a piddly 25% or whatever on an amulet, but that's not much compared to the 72% you can get on shield/dagger, lol.

if he was running a dagger build, you would be correct. but his gear is quite easily visible and his weapon is quite obviously not a dagger..........his off hand is quite obviously not a shield........

or are you really implying a 30% "more" bonus to dps is not much of a bonus? if so, that's kinda sad XD

Didnt read all the rage here i just wonder how will this affect the ST low life dps? how much % dps decrease will this be?

will it be able to do uber atziri?

Will be 25% DPS decrease, still able to do Uber Atziri.

We just lost Pain Attunement.

Is it 25% less or decrease?

Either way if thats the case the nerf isnt as bad. although its still pretty bad ;)
