IMO better now than later, because we won’t need to adjust and waste gold when we are iLvl 1600.
I’m expecting a lot of surge DB tears too, not gonna lie. But as I said, better now than when it costs so much that is painful to switch builds.

Also you should pick surge because you enjoy it and not because it’s op.

I‘m wardancer not surge db, but yeah picked her for more than op ness.
Correct, I don’t really play Deathblade. And I don’t play things because they are meta.
I play things that seem flashy or in case of my alts, make my life easier (or both) because Chaos for me are boring.
But shitloads of people in the west are meta chasers, thats why I’m kinda expecting this forum to burn in rage xD
Feels good since my class is getting only buffs and quality of life changes
- Removal of all front and back attacks
- Stagger and weakpoints moved from hard hitting abilities to supporting ones
- New counter on low cd
- 5% damage buff across the board
Deathblades, Zerks and Sorcs should’ve been prepared for this - no king can rule forever

Do not forget that we are also getting all of the QoL!!! That’s so big. I can’t wait for my FI buff and bard buffs aswell
FI buff but 16% crit nerf and c+j nerf too smh
I‘m 2 spender eso D: Rip crit.
2 spender eso is just worse than 1 spender with our current gear.
That’s fine. I think they also worked on tripods for our best attacks to include crit rate on hit.
If I got that wrong, then we may just put adrenaline in our engraves and call it a day
For me it‘s better right now due to no Focus runes or C+J. Will look into one spender later. Damage is still nice.
Just mayhem zerks. Us Brazil secret sauce users are getting a buff.
its not about being op or not, the nerf heavily targets the current meta build with surge 1 and makes it basically really bad compared to before, it also makes RE better on average than surge even with surge 3 (which requires a build switch to get rn) meanwhile RE is a far easier build and should never reach higher dps than surge if played equally well, in order to make surge better than RE after balance you have to play WAY better because of the difficulty difference and even players in KR agreed that this is a bad design
its kind of similar with igniter vs reflux but in that case the patch actually doesnt mess with this inter-class balance because igniter as the far more difficult build is still staying ahead in average dps as it should be
Overall martial Artist gets buffs. I’m happy. About time.
Zerks doesn’t seems to get nerf…
Zerks and sorcs didn’t care in kr…zerk has access to attack power potion now, so they are in a good state. Nothing really changed for them.
It’s 33% crit nerf 
I don’t think the damage buff makes up for it.
