No, it doesn't, otherwise chaos offhand would be too stronk and pretty much negate the need for off-weapon ias or MH jewels


ya they buffed a lot of things and i thought their logic would want something like that

They didn’t buff anything for assassin


I never would have thought that blizzard would give assassins an extra 20 skill points to distribute would still be a nerf to assassin.

The idiocy of blizzard knows no bounds.

That’s what you get for listen to pvm spawns and Mr.HasLessIQThanALlama

Removed fhr from pvp.

The 2.4 patch was a huge nerf to asssassins, even with giving them 20 skill points.

CBF has always been overrated on a hyb

But without erep claws, you need 15ias jewel in griff for 102 for max trap speed now.

An erep claw you can 15ias jewel it and reach 42 is for GT/RT.




According to 2.4 patch notes, offhand wsm no longer affects trap speed. Wouldn’t be surprised if blizzard fucked it up tho. Also you could test if offhand +ias goes towards total ias number needed. I doubt it does tho.

I don’t play d2r, so couldn’t help you test.


yea im just gonna assume they made it work properly

my gut reaction is nothing changes for spider/hyb-sin
ghost - can now deal with less ias on claws since highlords should make up for it

we won't know for sure until we get our hands on the patch though. blizz has told us things work one way and then have that not really be right before (ss druid ias changes)

Ww ias was never an issue on claws.

The proposed changes are actually a further nerf to assassin whirlwind as slow and cold will now affect your WW speed.

Yet again blizzard has shown their incompetence

But it sounds like you don’t need IAS on a cruel or fools claw necessarily if you can get it from gear now.

I mean the changes they made with fixing the glitch of delays between WWs should make it more viable, instead of not being able to initiate another WW quickly. Also short WWs not hitting? I definitely noticed that, and I’m pretty pumped to see if they fixed these things.
