So, I am playing the Spiritborn class and the moment I saw and played the Evade build, I said to a friend - get ready for the nerf that'll come as it's what Blizzard does. Do I think it is having an impact on other classes - absolutely. You'd have to be blind to ignore that. What I'm disappoited in is the fact that I have been playing Diablo since Diablo didn't have a 2 next to it's name, or a 3 or 4. So, with that said - I haven't been able to do endgame stuff since the launch of the game and that's been - distressing - to say the least. I thought, maybe, just maybe with this build, I would have the ability to kill Lilith (Echo) but I better get to stepping if they're gonna nerf Spiritborn rather than buff the other classes - which - desperately need it... especially in the DLC.Which, if I may, I'd like to discuss the DLC: Positives: More game area to discover, excellent cut scenes, better side quest implementation, added puzzle work to cellars. Negatives: Nerfed speed on mount, number of unique never before seen monsters ( don't think I should see a SINGLE monster I can see elsewhere, especially for cost of DLC, just seems lazy), lack of previously paid for cosmetic/battlepass cosmetics for Spiritborn, game crashes, lack of real-world communication for party only activities (language barriers) - if you're going to teleport a person to a different floor to complete a task & needs to be transported back via 1st floor, then put in a notification system to the 1st floor indicating task complete & person standing on teleportation pad!Overall, am I happy - 50/50, not happy about the cost vs what we got but somehow I feel playing 1,273 hours of this game to date should have given me a build that can do endgame bosses, trials, etc. 1 class seems like a huge money grab, especially knowing what they've raked in cosmetic revenue and knowing they're likely to repeat a second DLC class for a second money grab. I can say with certainty - I've expected better since the launch of this game. Sorry for the longer opinion. To those who read this & feel otherwise, I respect your views, but these are mine... and save your you just need to be a better player attitude for someone else, that's not productive IMHO. Thank you for your respect and I give you mine.
I will only say I am having a blast with the new spirit borne class. I don't play the evade, but I can't argue with anything that is affecting overall gameplay of others to be a great thing. I am kinda hoping maybe they can buff something on that build so folks who like it can still play it. Is the game perfect? No, but I seem to keep coming back to it as my main game and don't see that changing in the future a whole lot. I also do agree that the other classes need some buffs so they can compete. I feel all classes should have at least one or two endgame builds that can take our the tormented bosses and Echo of Lillith.
unfortunate. the only thing in the game that looks interesting imo.
Probably deserved, build is absolutely busted with minimal investment, that being said I abused the hell out of it knowing a nerf was coming so I can have plenty of gear and uniques for a new build lol. I'm sure spamming evade and watching my character bounce all over the map probably wasn't good for my hands or eyes
