Besides warlock.


Which class gained the most flexibility / dmg increase due to the new -res sunder, and -res ancients' jewel?


Nova sorc?
Psn necro?
Cold sorc?
Fire druid?
cs javazon?

thoughts on the most significant increase even if not overall #1?
thoughts on which class has the highest solo p8 tz dmg output thats not warlock?


if we do get skillers that continue to -3 res, and sc's that add -1. we would be looking at another -30 to -40 res. // id imagine they balance that out with a higher tz or whatever, but just curious whats been the experience like on non-warlock builds so far.

Dunno, but I’m really interested to see how the physical protectors stone jewel helps Bowazons using Windforce…. It’ll have to wait until prices level out though.

Obviously any magic based characters. Given magic ideally does most damage. Barbarian and smiter still worst classes in game. Especially WW barb 🙄
