The lightning one didn't look like anything at all, because all we saw was Arc + Inpulsa's showcase.

The fire one looks like shite.

But then again, people (myself included) shitted on the scourge arrow as "too clunky for clear speed meta", and it turned out to be an actually really nice bow skill!
Nice for Bossing, still not nice for clearing.

Is anyone impressed with these new brand skills? The meteor one looks plain lame compared to meteor spells in other games. Including ancient classics like MM6.
It does look pretty bad.

I will probably skip this league unless one of the new/reworked skills looks cool and is viable, and so far it looks like I'll be skipping.

Perhaps vortex will be viable now... but I kinda doubt it.

is there ssf friendly poison skill attack? fast attacking with added chaos would work but you cant bank on having that gem
New chaos bow skill is that one.
how so? it converts to chaos weapon base dmg and its what you cant rely on ssf
Toxic rain does not need any conversion. You need Quill Rain (you can farm that one and it also drops fairly often or use chance orbs on right base item) or need to craft a good +skills bow.

yeah but id like to use herald of agony with such build(already heavy invested in minions). toxic rain dot isnt poison. Without set chaos from skill you would need to farm both quill rain and added chaos - at which point you can use any skill
Herald of Agony also gives some flat chaos damage and the summon is not bad.

They still need to add an ability to have "Favorite" tabs in a separate row. Also, why do I still need an AHK script to be able to scroll the tabs with ctrl+mouse from anywhere.

New arctic breath looks pretty cool. It is a shame it is so hard to chill bosses, or it might have been viable...

What I really want is to the ability to auto deposit stuff in the correct tab for currency/maps/etc.

not even close
Last change to chilled ground (or similar effects, like that from Cold Snap and Vortex degen chill aoe) was set at 10% slow, unless the source of chilled ground stated otherwise. Used to be 30%. Still affected by chill effectiveness, though.

No comments on the upcoming balance changes.. and all the while Reddit is rioting.
Reddit is rioting about anything this days.

Other than the stat sticks rip when you wanted to use the with attacks, there are not that many huge changes.

Lets see the individual item changes in patch notes tomorrow.

Meh Reddit, there are lots of fun&effecitve builds out there. Even if they nerf it all to oblivion something new will rise.
Endure, in enduring grow strong.
