Only then we can really start creating our builds. | ||

Still MagmaOrb Goat ? Solar Guard or Wicker Man / Tukohama's Vanguard. The former seems to clear faster, the latter has insane boss killing. Also 2x Dyadus for Animated Guardian are a thing so Alurrs memes are mainstream now. <3 I definitely plan on playing Spectres after all these years of not wanting to deal with the shit anymore, hoping the ones above don't get nerfed too hard. | ||

I figure if i can make 85 with frostblades in mayhem SSF then i can do it in HC though. That new jewel with ascendant..... i managed to connect to 4 start points without losing any real power, could be good. | ||

I know it's rather worth waiting for the full patch notes and buffs but some sort of Slayer build was near the top of my short list for mentally planning next league, and if they're going to be markedly worse it'd help me decide a lot quicker lol. | ||

Base leech cap is 20% of your max life per second. Slayer took that to 30%. Vitality void is an additional 5%, with Hematophagy being another 3 and 5% (8 total). However, I'm not convinced that many slayers bothered with more than (at most) Vitality Void. As such, you can say that most slayers were leeching about 35% of their max life per second (potentially further scaled by modifiers such as "increased life recovery" from soul of arakaali which won't affect the math here). Best case scenario with hematophagy as well ended up at 43%. The new slayer doesn't change the cap at all. With vaal pact and Vitality Void we get to 46% of your max life per second. If hematophagy still has 2 3% nodes, then you can reach 58% now, which is quite high and it's not really like vitality void + hematophagy are that many points total. The thing is, slayer really didn't need faster leech before. Now, you kinda have to take vaal pact to make the leeching good on slayer, and once you do that you just lost all your regen which was the whole point of slayer (having useable leech without removing your regen). It's now even harder to be a leech build without sacrificing your ability to regen. And if you do sacrifice your ability to regen, you don't get the old benefits. I have no desire to be leech based next league (although new vaal pact should work with ES). | ||

Conceptually, I think that the removal of old vaal pact was probably necessary. However, I think that they should be buffing leech in general now that the abuse case is gone, not nerfing all the other ways to leech as well. | ||

Set a buffer cap at 5s or 100%HP so Slayer is the only one to heal for the entire map, but leech is less random for everyone anyway. That said, I'm not sure I agree with this trade API dmg nerf. Was the API really the problem or the way you increased its endgame? | ||

Honestly I would be surprised if there were no Spectre nerfs, they're pretty crazy while still being able to build your char tanky. Also those troll patch notes don't have too many lines yet, I'm sure the true ones are much bigger. | ||

Tbh if e.g. Wicker Man gets nerfed in the 10-15% range that'd be reasonable. But then we also all know that GGG hates Spectres so we'll see. | ||
