What a huge change just before ladder.

$10 says this change is going to apply to -res from items and cold mastery, too. Which will suck... I was looking forward to some huge power creep and shaken up meta after all these decades :(

chain... :rofl:

ok, 10k max (5k avg) vs 20 res @ 12 fpa

sure, it works fine in p1-3, but literally any build works fine in p1 at this point


Everybuild is fine at p1 yes
But light sorc more efficient

And even p8, light sorc can elite snip with lightning, farm white monsters faster with cl

Do you people realise that this cold sunder charm change almost nothing for area like CS or even baal throne ? Except for Seis and skeletons wave2 ? (and random cold ench)

Of course it is.
It's part of the game to make end game characters.

But play as you wish, stay with your occulus, shako, tri-tal, obediance/insight merc with tal mask for ever, i don't care


fuck yeah I'll stay with my shako and occulus if everyrhing in game has -100 res and I do 8k blizz

Not really.

Previously (pre 2.5) if monster had 116 light res, conviction would bring it down to 116 - 17 = 99.

Now it will be 95 - 17 = 78

So infinity still stronger than in 2.4 but weaker than without the 1/5 penalty.


Which part did I get wrong ?

Charm (95%) - 12lvl Conviction from Infinity (85%/5 = 17%) - CM (35%) - GE (25%) - Faced (5-10%) so it gets 8 or 13% while without charm some of the monsters would still have 68%.

Good change but should hopefully affect all including gear/facets and cold mastery

Games already easy enough

The 1/5 of infinity start at 95, not 110 for example


Thx.

In general cool change, but whytf it does not apply to all -ress sources including cm?

You know you can do it nowadays with light sorc ? So it will be even easier with sunder ?

Sundering Charms
Conviction and Lower Resist effectiveness will be 1/5 effective even after a Sundering Charm's applied effects. (This change will go into effect on October 6 once Ladder Season Two begins).

This was a buff to infinity. Not a nerf.
