I have had a valdun purifier for a few years (I despise cadence, sorry) and in this patch this poor build does not do well. It’s lost the skill on the rifle that I used on right click as an excellent bit of burst damage and fantastic devotion proccer. To compensate for this loss we get … soldier side buffs and some limited passthrough to the set granted wps. This is in my opinion a net loss for the purifier. Was it overperforming before?
Please don’t answer that, it’s a ranged build, of course it wasn’t.
They removed Fragmenting Round!? What the hell, why? It wasn’t even overpowered. Just a fun little skill that had a cool unique sound effect.
Admittedly I wasn’t playing Purifier, but rather Tactician, but I don’t think removing this skill is gonna help much. It was good for proccing devotions too.
Guess I’ll go play the hell out of my Valdun character while I still can.
I wouldn’t mind the removal of that skill if the set was compensated properly. Valdun Purifier is a bit of a joke: has like 14/12 FS and 14/12 Brimstone and no points for anything really. It needs some compensation.
if the skill isn’t that build bust contributing, does it even need compensation?
Wouldn’t it just be a matter of, keeping skill and still buffing set/effects?
