Chaos damage is OP

We need more chaos conversion stuff, consuming & voltaxic let us just few builds and skills to convert, GGG should do something about this, I want Arc totems of pure chaos, Ball lightning of pure chaos.

Please more chaos skills and more damage converted to chaos uniques, Chris should BAN players who doesn't play chaos builds, or send the FBI to their IP adress arguing that they are pedophiles.
... maybe that last thing it's too much, instead players who run a chaos build could get a free micro-transaction every week that they play that build.

In my opinion, the downside of not having to worry about reflect should be inferior clear speed, so the resistance should be tuned to ensure this.

why does everything need to be a tradeoff?
It can just have no downside at all. Make a chaos build if you like, otherwise you are very fine with the million other builds that are also out there, that'll crit for unbelievable numbers, or whatever the hell they all do.
There is no need, to nerf anything.

Are you asking why shouldn't conversion to chaos be categorically superior? That's just my opinion on how the game should work. I think it is more interesting to have a choice to make. As the game is now, you're either converting your spells to chaos or your build is inferior to what it would be if you did. Why do you think there should not be a trade-off?

I would personally be ok with the trade off if thats what GGG thinks is best.

i guess Mathils new Uber oneshot voltaxic build is the nail in the coffin for chaos builds.

Nerf Hammer polished and ready.

Edit: Now i feel like i should have played a voltaxic LA build too this league.

Any build that does not belong to the small set of best builds in the game is inferior.

Chaos may just as well not exist if it is like any other element. It was designed to be superior from the start. The difficulty settings in Path of Exile, the Chaos Inoculation keystone, and the boss encounters are designed around the superior role of chaos damage in this game.

There are also builds centered around it people shall now lose their builds to a nerf? Again?

Consider also that certain uniques are required to do meaningful chaos damage if you have those you deserve better damage output there are conditions to this that do not exist for elemental, so a nerf would also be unfair on top of being unnecessary.

:D made me laugh too!

Some people learned to live with reflect, others learned to accept it, many still hates it. And nobody likes it.

I thought reflect was supposed to be in this game for a reason, and exactly what is the downside of chaos? Chaos is one of the highest/rawest damage in the game, while being immune to reflect. What exactly is the point of being anything else?

I personally have to use two flasks, get vaal pact, and still have to be careful, and use timing/be on edge in a map due to reflect, and you have all these FOTM chaos builds that totally bypasses this mechanic?


Arent you guys bored mindlessly spamming with zero threat?

I still die to things using while chaos damage. Although it isnt reflect, other stuff still kills me occasionally. Who the hell is spinning this stupid rumor that chaos users are GoDMode? LOL!

How exactly are other people's builds affecting your gameplay or enjoyment of the game? Can't you be happy with what you have and enjoy the game without complaining about things that other people are doing?

I totally agree. I dont see where people get off trying to control or dictate how other people play? So youre a phys or ele player, you get hit with reflect - instead of DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT AND ADAPTING, you whine that chaos is too meta and OP and want it nerfed down to your level (Bernie Supporter Much?).

If you dont like dying to reflect, maybe your playing the wrong build or you have bad gear or dont know how to allocate your passives to be effective. If youre gonna whine about the way other players play, then who is the real problem here?
