I mean there’s probably a tonne of epics that were adjusted but most of them look like they received a buff. This one looks like it received a nerf and in my opinion it’s no longer competitive.
<— Before patch
Pros
It now has bleeding resist
Cons
OA has been reduced
Burn retaliation has been removed
Proc now triggers on block
Imo, this item doesn’t feel usable anymore and it was only “just” competitive originally.
I’ve seen other items such as Avarice of Androneus that were adjusted but I think that one was fair.
I guess we can rename this thread if there’s other epics people think were nerfed a bit harshly.
+1. Changing the proc’s trigger to “on block” killed it, as the ring was used on fire/burn casters and not S&B melee builds.
Please change the proc back.

I was using it comfortably on this RatA build.
I don’t feel the 3 nerfs were warranted tbh. I can substitiute it with another Gargabol ring, unfortunately the only Gargabol ring I own with a “Scorched Ends” suffix has a crappy “Corrosive” prefix
Making it Shield only and removing the burn retaliation seems counter productive as well.
