TyrantWD posted:Maybe if it weren’t made by GGG, there is a chance it could be decent, but there is no way GGG, in their current mind frame, are going to create a minion gem that gets anywhere close to the combined power of everything you give up. Indeed. I'm most likely going with a summoner anyway as a starter so I'll see how that gem feels like while levelling

TyrantWD posted:I can’t imagine it will be anywhere near strong enough to make it worth running over just any standard summoner build. You give up your AG, specters, and golem, just to have 1 damaging minion and some weak skeles or srs for it to feed on. If it gets to HoAg level damage I'll be satisfied

InventorOfTrees posted:You guys ready for the Reaper gem to give absolutely gently caress all information for how it works in game, and will require no less than fourteen posts from Mark_GGG on reddit to fully understand, which will then become the sole source of information on the gem for the next 3 years? Up to two Mark posts so far, probably more to follow.

just for reference for people who don't want to dig them upquote:The Consume skill kills one of your minions and applies a buff to the Reaper for a base duration of 6 seconds. The buff grants 40% increased damage, 20% increased attack speed, 20% increased movement speed and 10% increased character size. quote:Along the same lines, for Absolution, would you be able to explain the "larger" Absolution that the minions will cast? This was alluded to in the trailer and I'm not sure if it's still on the gem.

Hmh my Ball Lightning Ascendant's DPS dropped by 60%. It was a sweet build, I had 115k phys EHP, 160k chaos and 340k ele EHP. It was good because it did some damage but it kept me alive because I'm a bad player. Now where I'm going to find another build which can take hits, but also does damage and kills mobs...

Sounds pretty reasonable. It's almost like Reddit's histrionics are laughable and a good argument for ignoring that sub entirely.

Why does everything have to be twisted into "hurdur reddit am i right guys?" on this dumb forum? People here had issues, people on youtube had issues, people on twitch had issues, people sitting in my house that aren't me had issues. Even GGG themselves were memeing about how severe the nerfs were going to be. Reddit didn't have some hot take. That said, you're right in that Chris' post was super reasonable, and honestly gave me a glimmer of optimism for this league.

It's long, I'm not going to quote it. lol. that kind of confirms my thinking, but unfortunately not in a good way. like the aurabot thing- we want to change it, but have no idea how is not really what I would call 'better' than the theory that it was just the favorite of the devs and they thought it was fine. if anything it's more embarsssing.

People still have issues with the patch notes and changes that he didn't touch on at all except to say everyone is overreacting and it'll play fine, which is extremely not addressing anything. Also, the comments underneath that are just redditors tripping over themselves to say "oh okay, thank you chris" so it's real weird to call the "histrionics" reddit's.

It's weirdly maddening to read these recent posts. A lot of you are really unable to assume charitable intentions and it's sad. You can disagree with a lot of these decisions, sure, but the number of people exclaiming that the changes are incomprehensible is itself, especially with the amount of explanation given, incomprehensible.

You just use whatever the next best gem is? Probably Inspiration? Its fine to keep Hypothermia as a cold dot gem, but also the entire outrage about it was incredibly overblown.
