Cast on Crit Really NEEDs a Nerf (Who Loves CoC k?)

So many people have probably realized this, but Cast on Crit is being a largely abused ability.

GGG most likely didn't plan that people would crit hundreds of times a second, and that a set of skills would just become an orgy on the screen.

This leads to overpowered DPS, this leads to party member DISCONNECTS, and this leads to incredible IMBALANCE.

If it wasn't for people not wanting to "join the club", everyone would just make a cast on crit character, and why shouldn't they? You can kill an entire room in a millisecond. Thats just overpowered.

CoC = Cast on Critical, Pronounced CoCK

A Possible nerf would be to limit the amount of procs per minute on the gem. Put a hidden cooldown of maybe 2 procs per minute. This will save us all from unfair play and epilepsy hazards.

Thanks GGG

Don't listen GGG. This is just satire, your playerbase is not displeased with the current state of cast on crit.

um.. this is not satire... this is a player and several others of the player base tired of this BS

Cast on Crit is hardcountered by...

You guessed it!

Blind!

Oh wow, the amazing power of just paying attention to the game you're in.

+1

I agree with OP. Cast on Crit needs a nerf while self casting and some spells need a buff.

Anyone who isn't a stupid fanboy can tell you that.

Yea cause the amount of enemies that blind totally balances everything

Who said it was everywhere?

If any map has blind, CoC can't play it, no matter what mods are on it.

The Wiraquacha with the auto blind the whole fucking area? CoC can't do it.

Pay attention.

Edit:

CoC also cannot compare to some builds in PvP. In fact, if anyone throws in a Blind support they basically ROFLSTOMP on the CoC build.

Last I checked, there was not a map mod for "Enemies Cast Blind"

So yea, one rare monster might cast blind, thats nothing in the long term.

Edit: PVP isn't even part of the equation because GGG obviously doesn't think about PVP balancing when developing skills and abilities. PVP is always an afterthought. So don't even bring PVP into this.

limiting it to "2 casts a minute" would be a severe amount of overkill.
Perhaps the gem needs adjustment, or perhaps it doesn't. GGG can see how many people are using a skill, and in due time it will get what's coming to it, if it's really being used too much.

But thankyou for the suggestion, I'm certain it'll get seen and considered.

I agree with levy42088. If someone says that this is not OP, he/she is probably using this skill and is afraid of it being nerfed, obvious self defence.

As long as gems like CoC or discharge wont be fixed PVP and PVE will be broken. Especially PVP.

EDIT: why also discharge? Who could survive over 50k DPS in PVP?

EDIT#2: The most important thing in online games for me is PvP, who likes fighting scripted NPCs all day? Fighting other people could bring a lot more excitment, but the current state of PvP in POE needs a lot more improvement. Without PvP its just a pointless grind.

Strategically building character aquiring necessary gear in hopes to put it into rich and well balanced PvP area, but to my great dissapointment it seems that this day wont be coming soon.
