Faction rings discussion

don’t changelog notes usually represent the middle? :thinking: - or am i brainfarting on that one

but yes, overall similar notion/puzzled as initially raised in Lees bleed thread Pure Bleed builds that got hit by recent nerfs - #2 by Gnomish_Inquisition

*i get general crit meta nerfs, (even kinda agree) and i get the perception of free items shouldn’t be super powerful,
but these are hardly “super”, also stuff existing feels like it should “be” or have reason to use, even if it includes a free faction ring worthwhile at end, and not be “least appealing as possible, in case it might be used successfully”

also, this isn’t so much me wincing over “dead builds” or losing half oa/da on a ring will break budget kits or the few endgame setups they were used in
Just that it seems strange they are the target and not other avenues of “OP” builds OA/DA, when those rings perhaps should get more appeal, or atleast don’t need to have general appeal reduced (also if free purchase)
