The balance is completely retarded. I'm going to present two Amazon bow skills as an example.

Multiple Shot: The problem in vanilla d2 is that the ability has absolutely no scaling. Literally zero enhanced damage. Those fkin monkeys copy the failures of the Path of Diablo mod and added base damage as well as changed 75% weapon damage to 100%. STUPID. Barbs, Palas easily get 400%+ ed from their skills. Should have added damage scaling to the ability itself and added either a synergy or a skill such "Bow Mastery" which would have allowed to scale the skill further with more investment. (Also on that note. If you're playing a melee Amazon in this dogshit mod you just get 70+ critical strike as well as 600%+ ed around level 40 or so. LOL.)

Cold Arrow: In diablo 2, skills are divided into certain tiers when it comes to adding flat base damage. Those tiers are level 1, 2-8, 9-16, 17-22, 23-28 and 28+. You can see this here from the original d2 files:

EMin and EMax is the dmg at level 1, EMinLev1 and EMaxLev1 is for level 2-8 and so on.


The guys at PD2 are SO FKIN STUPID that they actually managed to REDUCE the benefit for each skill point after level 28. From lvl 9-16 it is 8 mindmg and 16 maxdmg per point. From lvl 17-22 it is WHACKY RANDOM SHIT and goes to 32-47 dmg. Slvl 23-28 is 63-73 (Notice they didn't even manage to keep the damage variance consistent. LOL). As soon as you hit lvl 29, the damage per level is suddenly 47-55. It makes absolutely zero sense.

This post is a violation of the site rules and appropriate action was taken.

It has nothing do with zon directly, also affects the other classes. It's a 5 year old putting in random numbers into the keyboard. For example a Barbarian's War Cry ability gains 10-9 dmg from lvl 19 to 20. I'm serious. 10-9 dmg. Also if you're some sort of mongoloid who doesn't understand the numbers don't post here.

still blizztards seems more retarded than those who made pd2

there doesn't have to be logic in all those, I heard monsters are stronger in pd2 and I guess pd2 is still early in development...

at least there's hope there will be some patches further for pd2, but vanilla d2... I am losing my faith...

Best part of pd2 is everything is harder and all class/builds feel debuffed and that’s a good thing

Pod is way to fucking easy everything way to buffed

Bnet is just stupid wait in line never gonna change nothing

At least with pd2 they gave everyone a challenge. I mean have you tried killing blood raven in normal ? She does more dmg then hell Baal it feels like lol

If you want easy play pod if you want wait in line play bnet :)

Blood Raven is unintentionally bugged, the developers admitted it. I think pod and pd2 are equally garbage. The assessment that everything is harder is blatantly wrong. 90% of skills were buffed, practically every random unique or set item got buffed. It was done in an inept and inconsistent fashion. Many changes were completely unnecessary. For example moving the NPCs in town. Ridiculous changes such as Tal Belt from 10-15 mf to 10-20. Comical skills such as Holy Nova or Combustion. It is a clown fiesta and people who say otherwise have lost touch with reality.
