2. Big nerfs to crit dmg and vulnerability. GOOD. A very high percent of all meta builds were abusing these 2 things leaving no room for other builds. These are both probably still too strong multipliers but we'll see what happens.

1) the way they changed world scaling is extremely idiotic. It's not going to fix any of the issues people had with it, which is that the early to mid leveling experience feels like garbage because as you level you get weaker. Making shit easier once you are high level and have tools to deal with high level monsters is the exact opposite of what they should've done

2) the nerfs to crit and vuln won't change anything about what people use because the way d4 calculates damage is fundamentally flawed. They will still be the most powerful and most used stats, just lower now.

3) I don't really care about this

4) this is a really stupid change in every way possible. It already took a fairly long time to hit 100 with the XP the way it was. This seems like they are over correcting way too hard. Want it to max out at +10 instead of +3? Sure that's fair, but to also nerf the increase down to 15% is silly. Also why do you care if people want to skip some of the boring leveling stages with their alts? It literally has zero impact on you whatsoever. It's insane that you care about how other people choose to play.

I don't really care about the rest of your post, but you say you're going to play rogue and I'd just like to say that rogue was probably nerfd the hardest out of all the classes. So have fun with that.

Hard disagree that rogue was nerfed the hardest, besides their sustain they were virtually untouched, the general consensus is that rogue is the best class in the game now by far. Only Druid can contest this once/if you get Tempest Roar. You're completely delusional and going against every top player if you even think rogue is bottom 3.

I also would disagree that it took long to level, I was level 100 playing casually and SSF in 3 weeks. Since then we've also got a lot of buffs to XP via NM dungeons which is something everyone should have been doing anyway. We got free XP boosts on top of that as well.

I agree that the equation needs to be change but that takes a lot of work and testing, nerfing parts of the equation is effectively the same thing in the short-term.

Power leveling is essentially P2W so that's why I don't like it.

Their defense was hit the hardest with the general defense and sustain nerf and their damage was hit the hardest with the crit+vuln nerfs. Not counting bug fixes rogues lost more damage than every other class.
