i agree 100%,

this rule change was a major thing i honestly coudlnt even believe was allowed when i returned to d2 in 2016

koda was using a 95% es sorc with gerkes and mashing mana pots, literally could tank 10-15 whirlwinds with 32020 and perf axes

Max changed it because he uses a 95es sorc with 13 bmanas and literally can tank 30+nados with minimal dmg if he eats mana pots
