cold never lacked aoe dmg

don't think this will really change anything, but if the increase makes it viable like nova sorc /w infinity then im all for it.


I was thinking it would feel like a nova sorc wielding infinity without needing infinity.

Someone explain to me what making us smash the orb changes?

Like not what it means but how it has ANY effect except wasting our time?

You weren't meant to bypass it in the first place, if anything, it's a fix.

Heh, that is one of the few points I agree with him on. Part of me wishes there were bots, so items would be less expensive, so it would be cheaper to gear out pvp chars.
Killing the same enemies over and over again for the ridiculously small chance that they drop something good is horrible. I am amazed at how many people don't even pvp, but will still continue to do this soul crushing grind.
I am pretty burnt out of mfing that now I am just hoping for a super ladder release price drop, so I can spend all my fg on gearing out a necro for pvp.


Bots just make it so players that play legit make less profit per day.

It lowers the ceiling of PVP but doesn't really alter PvP

This game was made specifically to be a grind... look at how long it takes to hit 99, look at how long it takes to find certain items. Some people haven’t even found a soj in their 10+ years of playing the game. If you only care about pvp you’re playing the wrong game, go play some mortal kombat or fortnite.. go play an actually competitive game.


Unfortunately I really like d2 pvp, or at least I did 16 years ago. In the coming months we will see how that opinion holds up.

But I will agree with you I am absolutely playing the wrong game. :lol:

Power Strike
Removed synergy from Lightning Fury skill

Charged Strike
Removed synergy from Lightning Fury skill

Lightning Strike
Removed synergy from Lightning Fury skill

With the above I'm guessing that's some lightning fury damage out of the window.
I guess it also frees up points to chuck in to passives.

LF's dmg hasn't changed. It's the synergy bonuses FROM LF that have been removed from those abilities.

Intersting patch.

The necro buff is ridiculous and HAS to be removed before launch, but overall its good.

I'm curious abou dual claw trappers now that Death sentry is no longer a synergy. With other synergies buff, the dmg difference will be big? Because now its way easier to max fade/wep block with a good trap build.

and All my love for the new hydraorber farmer <3
