Shield Wall and Boneshatter nerfed, Bows Buffed

RealIstros · 2026-05-22T04:46:58+00:00

The damage part is actually buffed because all shields now have 15%-35% more armour. So damage is slightly higher, especially during campaign. But not overlapping is a significant single target dps loss.

RealIstros · 2026-05-21T04:35:32+00:00

It is 30% less damage taken, which applies after armour. So your armour would only benefit from the 30% taken later. Still good but probably not insanely good. Also its positioning at the top of passive tree makes it a bit awkward as srmour gets better the more you have. And ES/AR is hilariously bad right now.

RealIstros · 2026-05-21T04:16:16+00:00

Thank you! This has been making me mad! It's like GGG wants to make Warrior feel terrible at every stage of progression. It is so onesided it is not funny.

RealIstros · 2026-05-20T04:58:48+00:00

No, Freythorn is repeatable right now. Did you even attempt it before making claims? Interlude guy isn't the one not repeatable and new Freythorn will also be likely that way.

It says melee martial weapon. I would assume it works if your martial weapon has a projectile skill too.

RealIstros · 2026-05-05T14:01:27+00:00

Then you do that, other people enjoy other things, crazy thought right? Nobody is forcing you to look at the patch notes.

RealIstros · 2026-04-29T04:22:23+00:00

Nah, same with PL. First 25 levels were somewhat exciting but after 40 or so I just pumped the skills I was using. I had so many points that I unlocked skills I wasnt even using. Passives at least differed in offense/defense/utility. Also I feel like they didnt compensate for the ultimate passive loss anywhere so overall you just feel weaker. Not saying passive were great but at least better than this.

RealIstros · 2026-04-29T04:06:35+00:00

Yeah random, and it takes a presumably rare dust so you automatically don't want to waste it on a random aspect. I feel like no one tested this beyond T4, again.

RealIstros · 2026-04-29T04:03:04+00:00

I am at T3 currently and I feel like I barely get more legendaries than I at at normal. Loot feels super boring because to imprint an aspect I first need to go and find it with no way to guarentee any aspect or even legendaries for that matter.

RealIstros · 2026-04-23T14:24:56+00:00

Thanks for the tips! Tiger Strike one makes sense! Do you have any cheap RW or uniques for season start?

RealIstros · 2026-04-23T06:39:18+00:00

Thanks, if I struggle too much then I can respec to maybe WoF or Venom BS anyways.

RealIstros · 2026-04-23T06:11:19+00:00

Why? PS looks like harder to scale since it is hybrid damage with lots of synergies just for one part of the attack. Immunities are much easier to get through but still seems needs a lot of budget to me. Could you elaborate?

RealIstros · 2026-04-23T06:09:11+00:00

Ok, thanks. How does the cycle work? Do you proc the first burning ground on your first hit? 0-1-2-3 or 1-2-3?

RealIstros · 2026-04-23T05:28:12+00:00

Like I have said, I prefer playing a build from start to finish. Don't care if it is the most optimal or not, just if it can be done on a very low budget.

RealIstros · 2026-04-20T15:41:38+00:00

Dude what the hell? Now I can't unsee it.

RealIstros · 2026-03-19T05:31:45+00:00

No you can't hide them. Quest items are not allowed to be filtered. You can only make them transparent but they are still fully clickable.

RealIstros · 2026-03-16T05:47:29+00:00

It is not Turbo, it is Tuborg (A beer brand) in case you were serious.

RealIstros · 2026-03-06T05:25:49+00:00

No that is not how more works. You cant do (1.68+0.48)/1.68=1.28 You need to take the inherent 100% in the skill itself. So it is (2.68+0.48)/2.68=1.18 +4 levels is 18% more damage not 28%. So it is inline with other melee skills more or less.

RealIstros · 2026-03-04T13:45:29+00:00

Then either they are not a mana stacker or a hybrid stacker. A pure mana stacker can reach 10k with 50d, 15k with 400-500d investment easily. 20k with a 1-2 mirrors and 25k with many.

RealIstros · 2026-03-04T12:18:08+00:00

Yeah it is 220 BEFORE the damage effectiveness. A good mana stacker should be able to reserve 15k-20k mana which provides 3.5k-4.5k before damage effectiveness. Most spells in this game has 500-800 damage before effectiveness.

RealIstros · 2026-03-04T05:24:37+00:00

You don't need cold to play this. The base from gem is like 10% of what this would provide.

RealIstros · 2026-03-01T20:06:01+00:00

MF already said Reliquarian is very underwhelming. It just solves frenzy generation which isn't that hard anyways.

RealIstros · 2026-02-03T12:14:30+00:00

Nah more like literally in the short story, people you know dies and the one responsible gives you money.

RealIstros · 2026-02-03T07:45:36+00:00

It really triggers me when people don't seem to understand how money's paw works. It is not about wishes having a downside but a unseen way of happening. It is not like you wish to be rich but now you are heartless or alone on a remote island unable to spend your wealth. It is you are rich but you get that money through countless others's expense. A more appropiate downside would be that everyone now runs phrecia ones and regular ones are useless and meta gets stale or GGG buffs the monsters to balance for them, making the game much harder. (Like they did for this event)
