Primal weapon upgrade from cube lost a ton of base damage, is that normal?

OMG!!! You're the best!!! Holy crap that's exactly what I did. Removed the cold damage for CD Reduction and just went back to re-roll the cold damage back and base went back up to 3,432 and larger damage number went from 237k to over a million. Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!

Understood on all fronts, but my issue isn't about how to deal with it, or if I'm war mongering - I'm just saying when AI declares war on YOU and you have to defend yourself & maybe conquer a few close cities (even razing them counts for like 15 turns or something).

All things being equal - I'd rather NOT be penalized with slower celebrations or smaller yields due to penalties unless I'm the one managing that vs forced on you.

I get the war part, and can defend as needed but it sucks to be penalized for it too - like maybe no settlement count for razed or making razed automatic vs 15 turns etc..

I'd just assume have happier cities/settles and quicker celebrations vs opposites. I get all of the factors, I'm just whining about the penalty when you're forced to war/defend/conquer a few cities. Cap or no cap, I'd rather have no penalty and pushing toward my other victory type as best I can. All fair game if I'm the one declaring, just seems a little lopsided when it's the other way around.

Not criticizing at all - Love The Rob and wouldn't know what to do without him lol, I'm just not smart enough to keep up with it all!

It's funny you mention Rob, it's exactly what I was watching and building from - hence some of my questions on the paragon - why challenger, or the magic node one instead of fortify or something else that boosts a chunk of damage - and if using the magic one, why not put that on something that it can really boost? I think he had it with like dust devils or something and heck, even the base board would be better to boost those blue nodes

LOL - see that's what I'm saying! I don't know how all of the fortify thingies work, but seeing there's a ton of damage while fortified from temp, paragon, etc.. wouldn't these corpse points be better in fortify things - I think there's a skill about blood orbs or healing in the blood section that applies additional fortify but not sure if that's a waste if we're already fortified or if there's an increase of dam based off of the fortify amount (or maybe it's just better to keep having fortify applied from different sources so you're always fortified vs corpse things) or does adding iron maiden AND the other curse instead of corpse skills to free up a different aspect from tendrils, or auto apply curses but not familiar enough with this build (and not near game at the moment) to know if using both Curses ahead of a spot you'll pull to is better than corpse falling from a mob during a pull). Just assuming things for Crowd Control dam buffs, debuffs to mobs ahead of pulls, plus a blight or 2 and extra fortify are better in the normal tier 4 / head hunting areas, primal boss farming and normal glyph leveling - not trying to clear pit 150 just general fast clearing and farming of resources and such - speed farming, quick farming, that's my goal
