The best thing for casters would be if using a shrine would make the appropriate spell dmg and pierce have a higher chance to roll so you dont have to spend 500k shrines for 1 item.

I came from Diablo and reanimates don't gain bonuses from +minion stuff.

I always understood it as it was the golems dmg (otherwise it would say something about aura) but it centainly needs some rephrasing.

Anyway, are you guys planning something for energy factor? It would be awesome if it wasn't so fcking craft-demanding. I don't miss the days when you could destroy heroics in 1sec with Abyss but with all this overhaul things got upside down and casters got a pretty raw deal. It's so much easier and less time-consuming to build wdm char to end-game than caster, new -res runes help a bit but you still need that energy factor, it makes TOO HUGE of a difference.

Maybe raise spell dmg overall but scale down the ef effect?

EF suffers from the same thing as the block does. It's so frigging useless in anything but the end-game. The amount of stat points you get from charms is something out of this world. I'd rather have charms stat bonuses cut in half for 2 more stat points per level (Median 2008 had 10 pts per lvl but much less charms). Energy factor itself used to be even worse, as it didn't had any cap and it was increasing returns on the high end, I remember some crazy characters decked in UMO project gear that reached 1500% spell damage and could one shot anything with a singularity (assasin aoe spell, the char was using two umo project claws). The curve would need to be modified, so that you actually gain something early-mid game, because right now an item with 200 EF equipped by a char with 250 energy will get you something pitiful, like 3-5% spell damage. Equivalent of one socketed rune, almost useless stat.

The game is designed in a way, that you don't need ef early, because low bosses are not tanky, so ef not doing anything is not a problem. Things get tougher at 120, when bosses start getting tanky, and you need to work on your dmg output.

Yeah I memberrries, and dev team has done great job gradually removing those.

My point was crafting, you need ef jewel-crafting (and possibly eerie) to succeed late game, my fiancee got tired of it and decided to roll a barb for much easier living.

Of course every build needs work to succeed in end-game, but I see EF as a huge disability. And seeing the mod becoming more and more newb-friendly, it should change...

thats like saying ewd should be removed from wdm chars.

spell damage and flat damage are direct ways to scale damage, and then ewd/ef are further scaling. in a nutshell.

I know how scaling works. Remaining point is that wdm builds don't need to craft fuck tons of stuff to be successful.

Necro can spawn totems trough walls (gg ez dunc in hc)
"Banisher of light" gem minibosses pierce minion resists by crazy amount (oneshot any minion)
Dragonheart RW does not give defence based on character level (only base defence available)

- most of the O-skills are too weak, they don't stand a chance to class specific skills. Please consider buffing them.
What is the purpose of keeping so many O-skills that are never being used by anyone...
- when playing Bowzon I often get stuck on small objects like chests/torches etc.
(when keep pressing left click to run) normally character should run around the object.
- is it possible to add server name or small country flag in the lobby so I don't need to enter the server to get its location ? (I often enter 5 Asian servers in a row where I get huge lags)

Why mouse wheel cant use for skill

Marco pls fix
