2.11 Patch Notes

[magz_]

Confusing part is that one of the admins was promoting it as patch that increases variety of builds but like 95% of notes are nerfs. Most of underperforming builds are untouched or nerfed even.
Seasononal abs in angelic area is something, not sure how to describe it in civil manner lol.
Yikes.

did you ctrl f one particular skill or can you just not read?

I'd love to see how you arrived at that 95% ratio

1 in the top 35 necromancers using crossbows on SC ladder are using Widowmaker and it received 20% less dmg, I don't understand the justification

Super excited for the Season! Love the changes to Naginata Assassin.

Thats more because of how strong scrolls made fire xbox this season. Widow is still very strong - for a lot of stuff you can just hold right click and look at your phone, and given xbow nec was already stacking strength, you now get 25% damage reduction for free on top of that

That is because the stupid braindead scrolls and soulstone this ladder gave over power to fire crossbow nec. Widowmaker itself too good in endgame. For me, I even think 20% nerf is not enough, this skill deserves a 25%-30% nerf in high level.

The poor Necromancer getting shafted as per usual.

I really dont use crossbows, but that sounds very short-sighted from a balancing standpoint. Like with PoE and the notion of nerfing certain gems for the "1%" only for it to screw other builds or make them near useless for non-minmaxers.

[BearBearderBarb]

Such is the PoE-like life. The only saving grace here is the team isn't big enough to "shake meta" every season. Imagine scroll season but it's EVERY season, the real PoE experience.

When will people stop complaining and begin thinking? Maybe never.
Widowmaker is still one of the best damage skill in the game, there is no nerf really to the build, you are now more tanky from grit thingy, you can just focus on getting more damage and less defences and will be the same as before widowmaker nerf…

It’s actually a good thing, you can get more raw dmg and less projectiles which works better for teleporting bosses, will make them trigger less teleport equal less damage lost.

Why so much hate to trap assassin?
