It's frustrating how good Bringer of Rain is.
" And it's countersynergistic because you're giving up a huge amount of armor and ES. There's a reason no top PvPer uses BoR with Aegis. Suboptimal builds get weeded out quickly when you're not fighting against scripted monster AI. |

It's a great item. Completely one of a kind and it's items like this that make PoE fun. Leave it as it is and let people who do have it enjoy it. And I say all of this as someone who doesnt have it (but can afford it), and I dont care to have it.
There's nothing frustrating about other players having great items. Live and let live, man. Forum members gotta learn to leave other people's items and builds alone. Dont ask for something to be ruined just cause you don't have it. Take awesome items and crazy, fun builds out of PoE - and what reason will there be to play this game? 177 Dernière édition par toyotatundra#0800, le 9 déc. 2013 à 12:57:16

Why is it frustrating?
Because you don't have one? It's only good in facebreaker builds or 1h melee builds that abuse this with aegis. Why is it an issue that it enables builds?s We should always have items that enable builds, just because you don't have one doesn't mean it should be nerfed. Also why do you want it to be nerfed, it allows people to have a good build only for 7-10 exalts as oppose to spending 30 on a 6-link chest that's good. Your shooting yourself in the foot by nerfing this because your removing yourself from another avenue of having a GG build that actually is reachable.

What is aegis?

" You only need at least 1k ES to AFK away afterwards since that is how broken Aegis Aurora is. You only need at least 10k armor to make Aegis Aurora even more broken, and that is easily accomplished with BoR + IR + Grace or Determination. Also, remember this, Block/Spell Block > all And as for pvp, what is this pvp you speak of? The only pvp games I am aware of is SnK vs Capcom, Mortal Kombat, Tekken and Soul Caliber.

" Who PVPs in this game? I guarantee you 99 out 100 players can not name a "Top PvPer," and I'm guessing that those that do don't do with it their PvE builds, because PvP means.... 1 target. Anarchy/Onslaught T shirt

" Or you can replace the godly 1h'er with a cheap pair of FB's. Aside from that though, I pretty much agree. " Even when PvP gets here in it's release form, I'll be surprised if we ever need to look at item balance from that point of view. I'm sure issues will come up but no idea how GGG will handle balance across both pve and pvp.

The only reason why spell block is considered OP is its the only mechanic that allows you to deal with ridiculous spell damage that you see in end game bosses. There isn't equivalent of immortal call or enfeeble for spells, the only thing there is spell block, and due to the cap at 75%, you either have to invest ridiculous amounts in gear which may not even work with your build properly, or you could just get spell block
BoR on its own is fine, the issue we have is really a result of the retarded scaling of spell damage due to how the spell damage formula works, which is why everyone is going for spell block |

" But Enfeeble does lower the crit chance/multiplier and the overall damage for spell mobs. Anything that can lower damage to good extent is good. Of course, it is still not enough, so you invest in getting enough res as you possibly can, and try to crack 80 with one of the res, or all of it, if you are using Saffell's Frame to reduce spell damage even more. BoR + Saffell's Frame (maxed) on the spot is 49% spell block, and that alone only makes a huge difference when dealing with spell damage. Combine it with the all max res + Enfeeble, and you will be able to tolerate spell damage. Of course, the downside of Saffell's Frame is that you cannot block attacks, so that can be costly, if you face Dominus since he can attack and use spells one after the other. That is where Aegis Aurora come in and does the job. Lioneye's Remorse + Saffell's Frame = Aegis Aurora. Sometimes you can take the game out of the garage but you can't take the garage out of the game. - raics, 06.08.2016 Dernière édition par JohnNamikaze#6516, le 9 déc. 2013 à 17:24:40
