Sorcerer and necromancer you say ? Time to drop the nerf hammer !
Leave my OP Ball Sorcerer alone! :)Butcher has yet to kill me. Makes up for him wasting my minion nec over and over again before I quit playing him.
So let me get this straight everyone hated diablo 3 because of the super powerful set items and damage multipliers and the game was too easy, but now everyone is playing the 2 most OP classes with the most powerful sets and highest damage multipliers? Why is everyone hating on diablo 3 again?
I love how now we just post numbers that are inflated and dont matter since they are more impressive than the abysmal active player count or even copies sold is off limits now. But this way oh 2.4 million people played hardcore! some died A LOT and just re-rolled to die again.. Kinda like Sea of Thieves boasting 30 million players but you look at even the simplest of new achievements and its like maybe 500k active players. Though in their case thats 30 million characters created since its 1 character per account so they mistakenly think of it as unique players when you have people like me with 5 accounts.Really wish we could still see the actual raw data these days. All games fall off after launch but seeing a steady increase as seasons progress to see if they were improving the game or not would be nice. Instead all we can look at is google trend data like with diablo3 where you could sea every season path of exile was going up in number of searches while diablo3 was steadily declining since every season was copy paste nothing unique about it (till recently)
I am curious why the above comments make reference to D3, when they're just posting 2 large numbers on killing mostly trash in D4. They are not subjective, just accurate would be my guess. I look at the facts, as a pure frost caster, I see the single ice shard launch hit and kill dozens of mobs along with the frost nova proc and its artifact that explodes and kills more mobs that get flash frozen. So it is just numbers. It is also likely over a wide range of levels, I can't get past 34-36 dungeons without getting clobbered, so I stay there. I bet plenty of players do the same. This does not make the kills invalid, it just does not reflect any difficulty in getting there, that is all. Butcher kills me every time, I find just porting out and starting a new dungeon works better.I would also wonder about where the data is from? Seasonal or Eternal? I never made a seasonal, (can't justify constantly levelling a toon, makes no sense to me.) They have some strange ideas of sorc and necro being over powered? I think that only their cookie cutter meta builds are what they consider prime and not everyone wants to play that way. If you are being competitive, you'll likely copy and paste what everyone else is doing just to say "yeah, I'm at the top of the DPS list." Not everyone cares though.I am here to enjoy the game my way, not to see who makes the top 10 list. It would be nice to see the raw data as one member pointed out, that is the real prize for those who wish to know facts.Happy hunting in 2024, may they make a better expansion to finish (or continue) the D4 saga.
