Gear Set Changes

Some pretty insane changes coming. What do people think?

Retaliation 2 piece will be absolutely crazy. Can pair it with Stun, Provoke, Toxic, Regen, etc.

Avenging counterattack when debuffed. Would have a massive impact in arena if Polymorph didn't already exist. In PvE, I think it'll open up a lot of cheese strats. I'm assuming you can only get 1 counterattack per enemy skill use. Applications to Dragon, Hydra, DT bosses etc etc.

Affinitybreaker now 50% to turn weak hits into crits. That makes using weak affinity debuffers... kinda viable? Notice you get a guaranteed crit, even without building c.rate.

Cursed: 50% to apply hex. Massive change. Mostly for hydra. But it's time to go over all hex champs and see which of them this enables.

Curing: heals restore max hp. Meh. If it works in the same way as miracle heal, then it's still a trash set. We need overhealing to trigger this!

Fury: insane damage boost to unkillable CB teams.

Frenzy: gain TM when debuffed. Like avenging, this opens up a bunch of builds. If it is per debuff, then it's absolutely crazy good.

For those that haven't seen the changes, see them below.  


In the upcoming 7.21 update, several Artifact sets will be reworked. 

This rebalance should increase the viability of some of the unpopular Artifact sets, provide you with a larger variety of options for newly-added content, and also increase the value of 4-piece sets due to the added bonuses. 


RETALIATION

2 Set: 15% chance to Counterattack when hit


AVENGING

4 Set: 45% chance to Counterattack when a debuff is placed on the wearer


CURSED

4 Set: 50% chance to place Hex debuff for 2 turns


FRENZY

4 Set: +5% Turn Meter for each debuff received


CURING

4 Set: 20% bonus Heal. Also restores the amount of destroyed HP equal to bonus healing


FURY

4 Set: Damage increase depends on Champion's current HP: HP 100%-76% = +10% Damage, HP 75%-51% = +25% Damage, HP 50% or lower = +50% Damage.


AFFINITYBREAKER

4 Set: C. DMG +30%. 50% chance to change Weak Hit to Critical Hit

Absolutely not. You could have spent years saving up cursed/fury/etc pieces, and what used to be top-tier gear is now merely ok gear, as hard mode dungeons have sooo much better drop rates. you paid a real cost back then, keeping silver locked up in gear that was just sitting there.

You know about the time value of money, right? If you went shopping at the grocery store, then at the register said "no worries, I'll pay you in a year or two", they would not let you walk out with the goods. LOL.

For reference, my account needs about $1B silver before all the pieces I have are actually rolled up. That's not a made up number, I actually did the math (very roughly).

Are we reading the same info?

These are all technical, niche sets of course. But within their respective niches, some of these have been buffed to insane levels.

Another nail in the coffin for me. Conellia in Frenzy for Bommal? 

Compenation for gear and time spent thats been nerfed?. Compensation for loss of progression in Doom Tower that you had before the gear was nerfed? I cannot wait to see what I get.

Ice Golem farming will never be better.  Rewards are finally worth it though.

My gear hoarding clanmates will never stop asking for more space instead of selling shit now.

Why cleanse? Asking for more space is easier, yes yes

For reference, I'm currently sitting on 180 million silver.

edit: oh and by the way almost all of my 1300 pieces are at 16.  Yes they are all crap and i wish I had better.

you do make a great point though. I need to get hard.
