true story...Aldryn is really Roshen.....because hey have your or I ever seen them in the same room together???
When you look at the AA, skills, and gear upgrades you see everything that should produce a nice jump in DPS, but when you actually parse it you see something very different.
I'd be more inclined to believe the nerfs are hardcore, which is an entirely different topic. Sounds like the parse comparison isn't a 1:1 comparison at all. One has the giant nerf in it. You'd have to wait until it's released to do a proper comparison. It has nothing to do with RoS though, aside from the theory of nerfing before an increase to increase sales. RoS would still provide an increase in overall power, even if all you're getting out of it is 5 levels and a few AAs.
I would cancel my preorder too. Unable to play the game with the random zone lockouts and server timeouts.
No they're just nerfing. Well I take it back there is one thing that can be considered a power upgrade. They did give 13th spell slot AA. But other then that nope nothing.
