Do you think this is dumb...

Do you hate it when there is a new patch available, it usually makes a class weaker? Sure it may add more variety to the game on new weapons and damage for others, but I still dont like it. The Amazon was my favorite characcter and they made that class suck. Hopefully it wont happen with the sorc.

what, you mean when they got rid of the 5x pierce guided arrow?

i tell ya what they got to do is make all char super good with giant synergies so everybody feels so good about doing so high dmg and then crank up the monster difficulty by about 400%

Heh you're lucky - in patch 1.11 i think from some unreliable source they said that the sorc teleport skill would have a 0.5 second delay between using it. I think they usually are out to balance the skills of the characters better rather than trying to make a character class suck.

Well, some patches make other chars stronger, while decreasing other char strenth, such as the amazon like you pointed out before. In 1.09, Amazons would shoot 1 Guided Arrow and (If they had Pierce Skill, or pierce item) the arrow with hit 1 person multiple times, doing 3-4x the damage that one would normally do.
Now the Zon in 1.11b Is Far more Weaker (bow wise), only able to hit the enemy once, even with pierce.

Light sorc: Nova sorcs, remember them back then? Cow ownage? You know it! But thats been nuked down quite a bit in 1.10 and 1.11b, that u do a measly 1-2k dmg MAX (with skillers).

Some characters improved with the patch from 1.09-1.10-1.11b, such as the hammerdin (who even had a hammerdin back in 1.09? No one, because there was no synergies back then) hmmm i actually cant remember any at the moment.

But you're forgetting the items that come with every patch. There was no such thing as an "enigma" back then, much less a barb or pally that could teleport(unless they had tele. charges), there was no "call to arms" so you couldn't witness a sorceress Battle Ordering.

So items come into consideration to judge if a character has been improved, or nuked. IMO, the patch of 1.11b is best, mark of fresh Ladder 3 season, dupes all fixed, etc.

Did i drag this post too long? = P

Patch 1.11 is already out? What happens if you made a zon back then with the five shoot as the one person pointed out. Would the next patch just... take it off?

[Bowbow]

Yep, 1.11 Has been out for quite a while now, a few months if i remember correctly. If u made a zon that could hit someone 5xtimes (with pierce), it would only hit them once now. Amazon's Guided Arrow doesnt pierce anymore, even if u made it back in 1.09
