Why not make it [bella potion] farmable? Like them signets? Izual would be perfect for this. Act4 - kinda boring act in MXL, nothing really happening there; act4 is "far" enough to know whether the build sucks and requires some respecing.

This.



The patch hasn't even dropped and people are already whining.

I find it a welcome change that will be beneficial to new players. Instead of reading the docs to find out if you can respec, you'll just find the item and know. I like the new player friendliness the change log has brought.

I always thought it was way too easy to just grab a rune + buy an oil and bam.. do over. Now you have to actually think!

But still, is the paladin balanced?

I'm looking forward to this change always felt way to cheese to just respec change a few items and wreck an uber that was previously hard.

What is the point of this change? I thought MXL17 will be newb-friendly, but the assumption behind making it drop-only is that player knows his build right off the bat. Not even talking about +max skill sources requiring respec and there are more than 3 sources of that.

I think their agenda was somethink like:
The game is easier now = you don't need so many respec as before.
