Diablo 4 PTR - Chain Lightning Sorc Nerfed

[@ralphpimentel4716]

barbs has billioin damage but when a sorc gets near close to those numbers its just to much for blizzard.

[@russelljackson8153]

Blizz should just delete the Sorc class since they hate it so much.

[@z3r0pointflux]

I bet a sorc touched one of the devs inappropriately.

[@innerforce7395]

Everything except barb is going to be nerfed. Barb is the predilect class in this game

[@dnice374]

I can confirm shock sorc is trash on new PTR. I am not happy about it. I would pay $50 just to know what kind of meth the devs smoke sometimes

[@z3r0pointflux]

I want to get some.. It's probably fire meth.

[@NickLamott]

I will wait until I see people play/ post S5 content. If sorc sucks I’m moving on.

[@z3r0pointflux]

I wouldn't hold my breath.

[@VK-el3of]

They need to just triple the damage of all sorc skills. My FO on s4 is fully built - 3GA items pretty much everywhere and it crits for like 3m on average. Even if tripled i would only crit for 9m in theory, still 100000000000m less than the barb.

You need the Crown of Lucion And you need to die in the first boss fight after that the boss is correctly scaled and not overscaled

[@Ariozo111]

haha, it´s Blizz...they have done the Nerf to the ground or make it Op from day one in games..nothing in middle. :) And stupid as so few play Diablo and love the strong builds so let folks have fun..:)

[@z3r0pointflux]

I'll never understand this developer team's philosophy. It's a mystery to me.

[@Enma-hw1wp]

With a optimize versión You can make it work to like pit 101 but thats it, with the new Unique Helmet.

[@z3r0pointflux]

Yeah if you can find any of the new uniques. I tried for hours and couldn't find anything. @wudijo was having the same problems.

[@p7755fn]

Seeing what the new chain lightning sorc will be like on the S5 (melee, no dmg, and forced to collect crackling energy, one of the worst mechanics in the game), it will be the perfect time to uninstall the game and not pay for the expansion

[@z3r0pointflux]

Im going to be honest with you. I don't think many people are going to play once POE 2 comes out. From what I hear, it's super easy to understand because they have video guides in-game. Like the last couch co-op even they did, they flew people out who never even played an ARPG before and they picked it up just fine. Diablo 4 is obviously trying to cater to a more casual audience which is probably going to be there downfall. It's sad. I've been playing D2R just remembering what an amazing game that was back in the day. I don't understand why they just don't copy the game and make a little bit more modern.
