[@HystericalMafia]

As a druid im glad they removed the bug but at the same time just annoys me how they patched it so fast yet chose not to do anything for spiritborn last season.

[@matisto24]

how does that affect the druid cataclysm? huge nerf ? or not that much?

[@flowqi212]

I hope it's their general strategy now, fixing game breaking bugs asap, no matter what class

[@damianpiotrowski6337]

They had to sell dlc somehow

[@BeaZTofficial]

@@matisto24 Well it went from infinite damage to not infinite sooo

[@Rydiculous]

They must have seen the lack of player retention season 6 Spiritborn caused so they knew they had to fix this immediately

[@tron7116]

I’m liking season 7 a lot ngl

[@Darknyte82]

Nice, I really needed this. Crafting legendary gems felt like a huge effort.

how about they buff thespawn rates of thoise alters that give you witch powers that you are missing? im paragon 155 and ive never seen one.

Hey Rob after the nerf, the blood wave necro becomes the best performer again?

[@kujjuru3680]

Does this bug fix kill the cata build or is it still good

[@alexalexandru4114]

thats what im wondering

[@TyBets]

It doesn't kill it completely but you definitely won't be able to clear P150.

[@douglaura2652]

​@@TyBetsgood thing pit 150 doesn't matter and is only a dick measuring contest for sweats. You're already powerful enough to clear everything outside of pit by tier 70 so being able to clear higher pits is arbitrary and meaningless.

is it worth build the Cataclysm after the fix?

[@digitalstatictv]

Great update! It's a shame we seem to go through this almost every season though. The new item drop rate is never good enough.

[@mcmarkmarkson7115]

I wish people would stop opening up roots while the boss is spawning. Then you have much higher changes to respawn the boss again with one of the roots

[@tesla3695]

doing the boss over and over isnt efficient. it only gives you whisper progress once per whisper turn in.

[@mcmarkmarkson7115]

@@tesla3695 you get more loot from the boss than whispers + runes + rot + he further spawn new roots.

what occult gems did you take ?

How do you convert restless rot to fugitive heads?

[@hsmoose35]

Is Cata Druid still S tier and High pit viable after the hot fix?

[@douglaura2652]

Why even care about high tier pit? It's literally the one piece of content in the game that doesn't matter. If you're clearing t70s you're already strong enough to clear every piece of content outside of pit with ease making higher tier pit performance irrelevant. It's the most pointless metric to use when evaluating a builds performance

[@konrah1486]

@@douglaura2652 Way to not answer their question lol

[@douglaura2652]

@konrah1486 because the answer is an obvious yes, there isn't a build in this game that isn't t4 viable if built properly. This concept of a build only being good if it can do pit 150s is idiotic.

[@konrah1486]

@@douglaura2652 There are absolutely builds that aren’t t4 viable lol

[@douglaura2652]

@konrah1486 like what? Name one build that, if built properly, can't clear all non pit content on t4 with ease. By paragon 200, with decent gear, we are already strong enough to clear everything in the game outside of pit and seeing as high tier pits aren't relevant to measuring a builds power then that means any build capable of clearing pit 65 is t4 viable. This concept of "if it can't do pit 100+ it's garbage" is fucking stupid. Viable doesn't mean killing bosses in 2 seconds. It means clearing the content with little to no trouble and any properly built build can accomplish that. D4 isn't a hard game and as long as you don't neglect your armor and resistances then t4 is a joke

[@kylesmith4516]

They fixed the bug, but will druid still be S tier?

[@joanmaurin]

hi rob the hota and still bug?

How do you get Draught of whispers elixirs ? Lvl 58 and still haven’t seen one

So when they going to fix the chest for barb,I want to play the normal build. I hate the ww combo?

[@binocular2011]

Already fixed!!

[@Salva-l2k]

Where can i find these head items?

[@josephwhite7699]

you kill the boss that comes out of the egg sack but has a head in the name, normally it says headless which means it dont drop one

[@badam1814]

I'm with you. I've killed a large number of the monsters and haven't got any. When Rob said he gets a lot, I am like - really?

[@badam1814]

@@callmeearlyat35 I was about the same. Around 160-170 now, still only got that 1. Rob has someone playing for him during off hours and has people give him items so his view on things is a little skewed.

I got 5 by paragon 90.

[@lukebrady65]

Of course, they would bug fix the Druid but refused to fix the Spiritborn. I called it.

[@Not____Applicable]

Never heard of learning from a mistake?

[@TeriuwuTeri]

Didn't they literally fix a bug with the Elixir of Antivenin that allowed Spiritborn to also speed 150 because it enabled them to do -9 GAZILLION damage a hit?

[@thatoneblackkid5297]

Are you stupid? The bug wasn’t tn Druid 😂 the bug was a witch power did you watch th video

Most mofos complaining about the fix can't even properly set up all the snapshots on that build

[@sumnersmash7485]

@@TeriuwuTeriyes they did but they let all the bugs remain that allowed it to do quad trillions dmg. Curious if Druid just sucks now or is still clearing 150

[@gatch666]

The druid is still able to complete the whole game, and make the 150 rifts? or the nerve makes it feel too much?

[@Rob2628]

Can still do it but much much harder now

[@gatch666]

Do you have to iron Necro Blood Wave to perform?

[@TimoNaaro]

devs said they dont nerf until season ends. Didint do it for spritborn because it was their bottom line. They got more money when people bought more dlc to experience the overpowered builds of spritborne. When its the druid imidiate nerf! its allmost same hypocricry than path of exile. If you are normie and you get caught using other people to boost your account you get banned. When it's elon musk openly admitthing account boosting then GGG devs are like...is it really that big deal that people cheat in videogames. Afterall its just a game!

[@douglaura2652]

No, they specifically said they didn't nerf spiritborn BECAUSE they didn't know how to until over a month into the season. Fixing a bug on druid 4 days into the season isn't even close to the same scenario but nice fake outrage 👏👏

[@FrackeDtv]

did they already nerf this? im getting no where near as many as he is on torment 4. like not even close

[@NickLamott]

Blizzard is so full of shit. They arbitrarily fix bugs, allow bugs, make bugs. ✌️ignore one of the fingers Blizzard.

[@douglaura2652]

It's not arbitrary at all lmao they didn't fix spiritborn last season cuz it had been almost half the season before they knew how to fix it and didn't want to invalidate over a month of peoples "work." The druid bug got fixed because the season just started and at most you're losing 4 days work. This is how bug fixes should always be handled fixed immediately

They didn't fix the hota new chest

I Hope they dont reduce the amount of greater affix items with this fix. Less legendarys okay but not the ga items 😂

[@dennisdeluca8648]

I think it was not needed to buff the restless rod droprate. They do the same fals every season. Start with low season progression because they want to keep the players in the game. But then increase all to the moon. So the season theme is done in half time. Sorry but i dont like that.

[@WishlockPSN]

So they didn’t fix HoTa????
