is the nerf really that bad? idc about the book/shield thing. but if this thing cant solo p8s imma be pissed.


It’s not terrible but they definitely hit the warlock hard, which is to be expected because anyone that’s played this game for more than one ladder could tell that thing was BEYOND op

I think ES is rather like foh that can go anywhere.

Great at p1-3 with relatively achievable gear.

I think it was a little to much, but the dura issue 100% had to be changed, as did the multiplicative vs cumulative damage.
The demon is the one they f’d up on imho, I Iike the hard point requirement for norm/unique but don’t like the fact aura is rolled from pool even if you don’t have that bonus. Checking aura before checking to see if your skills permit aura is dumb.

They f up the demon tree for wrong reasons. The demon has to be tanky otherwise no need to have one. I agree with the other nerfs though.

It can be annoying as fuck if the demon dies all the time. I like the idea to change demons to make it more fun, but it can also be annoying to stop playing and go somewhere to find new one and they will have sucky sucky aura.

Did you max out hex bane mate? The physical part got owned, perhaps more leveraging magic damage - max hex bane, black cleft?

max bane does like 2-3k dmg at lvl 35, in p8 is not good damage, but ill try it anyways. I will lose levitation mastery that is AR, crit and dmg lost.

It aint bad at all compare to the rest of the class. Still A tier+ and potential S tier with more testing. Still day and night compare to everything else beside javazon and nova sorc

They call it PTR 3.2 for Season 14, how quickly did they apply changes in previous "PTRs" previous seasons?

Season 14 will be somewhere in mid June.
