I agree with that part, but edeath now does like 7k and no support demon, a group of fallen can kill it.

Expect some changes before ptr is done.

Only thing I’m bothered by is can’t keep demon aura, even if it’s skill level isn’t high enough to grant aura, it still changes it to one of the cycle.

The only thing that is not written clearly is bind demon changes in regards to auras.

If I bind a demon that has holy freeze, does it keep holy freeze, or does it now get a random aura when bound?


Also making two handed only usable with books seems like well ok it matches the class but none of the books can compete with stormshield or spirit and need reworks now.


The ES nerf doesn't seem that bad, I have been playing with a Lo Wizspike with 14k damage and it wrecks everything. I'll just swap to a two hander.

Where did you get that 7k from?

The video of the guy who didn’t use any mercenary, had 150 strength and maybe 200% total off weapon ed?

It’s still gonna do 30k+ if someone knows how to actually build it. That’s the same damage as a blade sentinel assassin that absolutely oneshots the living shit out of everyone in pvp

Actual playing earlier.
With death decap and death glorious axe.
Unfortunately had to go to work

*edit: and if you go online to the blizz provided level 80 with efort TM it’s around that to

Botd will still be a terrible option to use.
