Soul is on the bottom of my priority list. Not to mention most of my mobs are highly resistant to begin with.

...which pisses me the fuck off.

Honestly I think soul res should be pulled from mechs and possibly from being upgraded at all on any creature type. Soul originally was the high cost middling damage type with no strength or weakness. Now its the high cost mid - high damage with a massive weakness.

Soul res also fucks up ethereal weapons, which was there only reason real reason to exist (no burden / interference is nice but doesn't warrant use due to eths low base stats)

Paraphrasing Tenboro's words: that makes no sense.

But I agree that Soul res makes eths less useful in that they were already only marginally useful. They sucked in general use because they were usually weaker than non-eths despite their rarity (and now, they're even less rare) and the two highest level Ultimates are Soul Impervious and Real Life is fairly resistant to it (though Soul damage is still one of the easier ways to kill it).

All your pre-nerf phase are belong to me.

Blah, semantics. Then replace "soul" and rename with "elder magic / arcane / force / elderberry" as a true damage type that isn't based on souls and it makes sense again.

I mean, if we're going by makes sense, why the fuck are mechs and zombies bleeding?

Saw someone requested "Unique Item" (Diablo?) kind of gear in the request thread.

Sometime ago, I was going to request the same exact thing. However, seeing every javazon in D2 using exactly the same so-called "Unique" javelin ... kinda ruined the whole idea of randomly generated item and its beauty...

Beside pron, this system is what drawn me to this game in the first place, still want it to stay that way. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/sleep.gif)

Eths should probably be changed to a void/null damage type that there is no specific resistance against. They already do crap damage, so having 0 resistance shouldn't be a problem.

Or take eths out of the table and replace them with beam/energy weapons. Ethereal staffs are stupid anyway, so there's no need to drop beam staffs.

Heyyy, I used Thunderstroke on occasion. But yes, max Eth Titan's was the endgame for every Javazon ever.

The main problem I see with uniques here is that Legendary equip (which I'd assume uniques would fit the rarity slot of) has dropped 3 pieces ever across the entire user base.

Agreed.

By Unique I meant Unique and not Diablo 2 like Unique. Only one can exist in all of HV (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

So, the chances of that dropping? It looks like legendaries are something like 1/600,000

Of course when I think about it, it makes infusions necessary in everyday combat. And because Tenb always wanted them to be more of a deal, it'll probably never change in that direction.

Reminds me of the lulz-inducing quest reward that 'personalize' your item. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

2 4 Trinity Blade crits you for 3588 slashing damage.

Those Fxxxing custom monsters are even stronger than mini-boss.
And now they have skills. WTF

Edit: And by the way, they're giving out less experience than those mini-boss? Or not?
I just cannot confirm that right now.

Edit 2: Thought a bit more. We probably should be able to kill all monsters in 1-2 turns, so it isn't so important?

Melees will have a lot of fun (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

If you define 'fun' like this...
(fictitious case)

20 7 You're BRAIN DEAD.
20 6 Pre-nerf Armor Strike crits you for 3000 damage.
20 5 Conquest101 uses Pre-nerf Armor Strike.
20 4 Infinite Credits Strike crits you for 3000 damage.
20 3 Bunko uses Infinite Credits Strike.
19 4 Conquest101 crits you for 1000 damage.
19 3 Bunko crits you for 1000 damage.

Then that's a lot of fun (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

Soon enough (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I just tried meleeing for a bit again.
Screw Tenbs mobs with skills. Conquest and Bunko are a much greater pain in the ass.
