The idea that i cant just keep my old gear and have it keep the same effect to be forced to get the new upgraded gear is a joke especially when this gear is not even that old. Its stuff like this that really just wants me to walk away sometime. Why didnt they just make two new belts and leave the old ones as is. Have the new belts have the same slow effect but with a 25% cripple and the higher end cripple effect with a reduced slow ? Most people cant even get these new belts to drop yet?
They haven't figured out the secret tell from the mobs yet. Only Fight Fire's secret tell has been figured out by roth.
At least Beimeith was scientific about his methods when he called for the hammer to come down on something. Like it or not, you can't argue with math and data, and he was always very thorough. He didn't even get his way always. You argument was "I want this", and "Nerf everyone else's belts if I can't have this". Wow, and you won! If I was Beimeith, I might be scratching my head a little. Anyway, its fine. Given the current social and political climate, being a jerk is perfectly acceptable. Even encouraged.
WTG DBG why don't we just get rid of slow throughout the whole game. doing stupid stuff like this is killing the game and to get it nerfed because some stupid caster none the less. Andarriel
Welcome to 20 years of arguments against spell casting focus degradation. Keep at it, and maybe in 15 years they will only halve the nerf.
