ES locks massive nerf incoming Season 14 :

Echoing Strike : Reduced damage synergy bonus from 5% to 3%.

Fixed Echoing Strike damage bonuses to be additive and not multiplicative.

Fixed Echoing Strike not rolling to hit.

Fixed Echoing Strike not incurring durability loss on the weapon.

Warlocks can now only equip a two-hand weapon in one hand if the other hand is using a grimoire class item, not a shield.

Cursed Affix chance to cast Amplify Damage skill reduced to 5% from 75%.

Removed Conviction Aura, Holy Fire Aura, Holy Lightning Aura, Blessed Aim Aura, and Might Aura from possible pool. When these roll they are now replaced with Fanatiscm, Vigor, Thorns, Concentration. Holy Freeze can still roll on a bound demon.


Say bye bye to your Fortitude/Doom/Insight Eth & Spirit/Phoenix Monarch metas, gg cursed demons, smite like ES, you'll need AR now.

1. It's PTR so none of those are confirmed, they need to be playtested for over a month
2. It's a big nerf on paper. But Warlock was overkilling everything by a lot, mostly using Mephisto's, and I've never swapped off EBOTD personally, so only numbers changed there
It's completely possible you end up basically not feeling the changes at all. I think we most likely will, though, but it won't be nearly as bad as people are making it out to be

That is the biggest RIP, though
