Soul Taker needs a nerf

Soul Taker is the melee variant of the Lioneye's Glare. Almost all one-handed buids requires it, just like almost all bow build requires a LG.

I really don't understand why Soul Taker was introduced to the game, in my opinion it just made any other one-handed buid way too much inferior.

It's not like a Shavronne, in my opinion. Shavronne didn't kill any other build, it just made possible the low-life builds, so it's not so bad that it doesn't have a drawback. But itens like LG and Soul Taker definitely should have a drawback.

LOL, this is a crock of shit.

So an ele cleaver who has like a 30 mana cost cleave needs it?

The drawback is just the lack of dps, and it's pretty useless for someone building purely around ele damage.

As for melee attacks can't fail on cost.. a lot of melee attacks don't cost much mana anyway..

Not saying it isn't ridiculously strong, but I definitely wouldn't call it as OP as shavs.. so maybe the game just needs more stuff like this.. if everything is OP.. then everything is balanced. - dota 2 logic.

Even though i hate Shavronnes in its current form i still kinda agree with you.

If more chests with amazing mods like Shavronnes are put into the game then there will be more choice for caster chest gear instead of using Shavs when you can afford it.

Maybe we're giving GGG too much flak for a game that barely has 1/4 of all uniques implementented.

Everyone seems to forget the reason soultaker is OP is not because of the DPS it provides. The dps is pretty decent which tops at 360 dps. (this will be a perfect rolled one). The reason its so overpowered is because you can litterly run all auras till you have about 2% mana left and still spam skills like you have 10 regen nodes which you dont.

@ALL : Stop being needy guys and let things op being op. With them or not, you will be able to play your OWN playstyle..

Why do you care about what other players are playing/using ?

I approve this message.

ya soultaker makes it possible to run not only another skill gem where Blood Magic went in many peoples cases but it still isnt as good as some weapons ive seen out there, so if you want to get EVEN with the OPness( lol OH penis) then get something that puts it to shame! ha.... IMO shoulda been a 1h mace.... but hey.... to each is their own. gl and gg.

very op, lets you reserve all your mana and swap out blood magic gem = huuuge dps over any rare weapon imaginebale

Thats the same logic people used to justify RMT in Diablo 3. Bad logic is bad.

yep.

If you use soul taker but continue to use blood magic then there will be better weapons, but as soon as you change BM for dps gem there will be no competition...
