No drastic change for my warrior. She still wears full gladiator armour and survive pretty much the same as before the armour nerfs. She takes a little more damage than before but not enough to cause any major problems. I don't play my warrior as often as I used, but only because I have a new assassin to get to grips with.

Yeah that's really a shame. I can still farm but I don't think this "nerf" was necessary.

Oh I haven't done much since the update, I only did the whole Canthan Campaign on my warrior, nothing big. I still never died while doing Raisu Palace, it helps to have over 1000 health most of the mission though...

Draxx · Aug 11, 2006, 09:19 AM // 09:19

Can Still farm where ever i want, but its 'sh*t' loads tuffer in places...

Mainly Hate it because they destroyed my shield and Absorbtion rune i saved up for back in the day.

I can afford to replace them now but that isnt the point, that they are not the items i bought which is what upset me really.

Hate the Nerf always will.

But Dealing with it.

I replaced my Knight's boots with Legionnaire boots.

That's it.

Absorption runes still affect your whole body, by the way.

My warrior hasn't noticed any difference at all.

(but yeah, I replaced my knights boots with canthan, for looks).

I just hate the fact that we can't choose between having elemental defence reduction or physical reduction.

I mean hell,with the fact that everything is - physical damage now I would love to have some elemental armor like that of Rangers.

Dont think there is a thing called nerfing, just updates. And they wont change the way I play.

My Warrior is as effective and my necro MM still has its fun so why bother complaining. U suppose too have fun. And whats fun with never able too take damage or have unlimited minions. All updates are usually reasonable. Even panic effect of firestorm, The heavens start raining fire, wouldnt u run? I would without a doubt run for my life, if it is starting too rain fire on while I am in a fight, so why shouldnt enemies do it?

Defy Pain,Endure Pain,Vital Blessing..Just to name the few skills that give additional Health.

Snowman · Aug 11, 2006, 11:36 AM // 11:36

Over all I think its a good nerf.

Its better for ele's who can do _slightly_ more damage, its dropped the price of absorbtion runes and sheilds..

More people are wairing Sentinal armor and Wyvern armor..

I for one use weapon mods vs Ele a bit more, and use Glads boots... havnt got around to picking up a decent ele damage sword hammer and axe yet.. but, well, that can wait

wilson · Aug 11, 2006, 11:50 AM // 11:50

i liked that update, it was more of a fix than a nerf anyway. i never had tyrian gladiator armor, be it 1.5k or 15k, half naked warriors ftl

no matter how good or pro that combination might have been. it's pve, i go for the looks, so nothing changed for me. you can still farm, it got a bit harder in some spots, but that only keeps you from falling asleep when farming

I just used Defy Pain constantly, and endure pain when it was charged.

It's actually possible to make a warrior/necro have over 5000 health

Xenrath · Aug 11, 2006, 12:13 PM // 12:13

Still pissed all the time and effort spent in obtaining one (before they dropped in price) resulted in something being taken away, same for a v. expensive shield too. I didn't mind the price dropping like a stone but to then change what it was took the biscuit. Thanks for the reminder though heh

p.s. don't bother trying to flame this post anyone, you won't get any response out of me and will just be wasting your time.

Raxxman · Aug 11, 2006, 12:18 PM // 12:18

This nerf seems to of sped things up.

I notice I take a fair amount more dammage, but not so much that good monking can't sort it.

I also noticed that I seem to be dealing more dammage as well, but that might just my perception playing tricks on me.

Firey Noobie sword FTW!

huMptY DumPty · Aug 11, 2006, 12:20 PM // 12:20

I didn't really notice much change in my tanking ability. All damage from npc still pretty low.

"Although", I do agree that at times wands do more damage to me than hammers.

bpphantom · Aug 11, 2006, 12:48 PM // 12:48

My warriors no longer look as though they were dressed by a blind guy using Mister Dressup's Tickle Trunk.

Now they LOOK good, and that's what really matters.

YornStar · Aug 11, 2006, 12:54 PM // 12:54

just changed the place where the sup absorption was, now it is on the chest

Kern Wolf · Aug 11, 2006, 01:03 PM // 13:03

Wasn't happy at all with the shield nerf; the armor nerf didn't bother me too much. Otherwise, it's business as usual....
