EPTI haven't looked at the reduced reservation nodes yet though, so we'll see.

(.6*1.96*.54*.71) = 45% of your HP reserved AFTER spending around 80 points getting every aura cost reduction node on the tree. This is with level-20 gems as well, which takes plenty long. | ||

With a start of 60% (.6) * 1.96 multiplier for level 20 BM gem, 0.71 multiplier for reduced mana, and 46% reduced reservation, we have: (.6*1.96*.54*.71) = 45% of your HP reserved AFTER spending around 80 points getting every aura cost reduction node on the tree. This is with level-20 gems as well, which takes plenty long. Yeah, I didn't expect the math to be very pretty. I wonder if we'll see higher level players/ guilds do things like create an aura or support-type character by leveling them up normally then doing a massive reset for the reduced mana reservations and such to run a ton of auras for teammates. | ||

BTW apparently it only takes about 55 points to get all the aura passives so dropping another 30 into survivability leaves you with about 15 nodes to play around with. Again you won't do much but you can achieve something with a build like that. Just need to figure out what lets you stay mega-far back and does decent damage without any damage nodes at all. You could grab the curse nodes but then you'd literally do nothing but double/triple curse and do auras rofl. | ||

Clarity/Purity notwithstanding. Of course, the numbers aren't really in on how good the new auras are but the fact that you can get like 50% increased effect is pretty big.

The issue is kinda "matching" your auras. And having 8 people  | ||

What's the point of beta-testing for 2 years when you are just going to break the game at release? Seems like the last 2 years were a waste of time for everyone. I don't understand this idea of constantly making the game harder for players, I love challenging games don't get me wrong, but at some point they should just let players have fun. What's the point of playing a video game when my character ingame feels weaker than I do in real life? Like seriously, the cleave char I tried felt like a weaker form of myself. I don't play video games to experience a worse type of reality. The reason I play ARPGs specifically to feel buffed and incredibly overpowered, but at this point characters just feel like a piece of shit. Look at Kripp's stream, they found gg weapons for their level (200 dps top end lvl 28) and their damage is mediocre, how fucking stupid. In other words, I'm done with this game, uninstall and won't play it ever again unless they massively buff players, in the last 10 patches most characters got nerfed, while monsters got harder and harder. if they value difficulty over fun, then fine, but if I can't even sustain the mana cost with cleave running a single freaking aura, then there is no fun and the difficulty is artificial in that you as a player just get fucked over for no reason. | ||
