Looks like there nerfng lighting fury quite a bit :banana:


They removed 3 synergies for lightning fury... so that's a +60% dmg bonus (if all in on those 3 skills) that won't be there anymore compared to the current Lightning Fury build.

...

Guess I won't feel as compelled to play cowazon 24/7 this time around.

Edit: at least they removed animation lock-out from Dodge/Avoid -- might actually be a reason to use those guys now.

105 FB is ES

if you want vita, 200fcr is by far better

if you go 200, it means you need Griffs + this staff. 200 with Escutas + spirit you can use a 2/20/2 circlet. Which makes the delta only 1 skill between them. but you also gain a socket, and all the extra stats the rare circlet can offer.

Again this staff is worse than other options.


again who is talking about fireball at all ? Stop ignoring all the other change this update could do...

Blizzard is still much better with fathom spirit

Lightning is still better with Eschutas or holding infinity since it gives -130ish lightning resist.


The staff is worse than common combos already available.

Those are synergies for the given skill from lightning fury.

Well seem you are stuck with the old builds and won't even try those other changed spells...

With the independent cooldowns blizzard + freezing orb might now be interesting. Especially with the quick cast this could be nice.
