[quote=“ogunther, post:234, topic:14368, full:true”]They simply made the game less enjoyable which is always, always a piss poor design decision. Why make your game less enjoyable when you have an opportunity to make it more enjoyable? And don’t try to sell me a bad of goods by saying the game is more enjoyable now; it’s not.

This is your opinion and a HIGHLY subjective one at that. It’s also a blatant attempt to pre-empt any further discussion by dismissing dissenting opinions outright. We all know you’re better than that.
Fun? If you want an abundance of arcane traitstones, it’s NECESSARY. Just like it’s now necessary to get souls some other way than blazing through PVP.
To be fair, the only official explanation we’ve received is that Valkyrie was being used too much.
The devs clearly felt that nerfing her soul gain is the way to fix that. In my opinion, it’s at least better than the alternative (nerfing her viability at generating mana, increasing her spell cost, removing Water Link). Mechanically, she’s as viable as ever. If they’d have changed that instead of nerfing her soul output – oh boy, you think the forums are on fire now…
So what it really comes down to is you don’t agree with the devs but feel like you can’t do anything about it and thus want to convince everyone else they’re powerless, too? Thanks but no thanks. I stand up for myself and voice my opinion when I feel it is valid. If you want to just roll over and show your belly every time something happens to you, that’s your choice but don’t expect me to join you in your apathy.
the way they allocated necromancy basically makes any deck with them slower, and also made most of decks slower (souls/time) in comparison to pre-nerf
a nerf which makes me spend more time for the same gain is a valid reason to be displeased about - in my opinion - at least in this case where i think pre-nerf we werent getting too many souls/time and that number didnt have to be nerfed
No not at all. ALL viewpoints are worth hearing, whether or not we agree with them.
What it really comes down to is that we are all here because we like to play this game. This is a discussion board and the game is worth discussing.
I’ve never once told you your opinion isn’t valid. I just don’t agree with it. That’s the basis of a discussion, is it not? I’m not trying to change anybody’s mind at all, just trying to offer an alternative point of view. Eventually, we’ll all reach a common ground and move on, just like we did with the dozens of nerfs that came before this one.
And make no mistake about it, I’m not apathetic. If I were, I wouldn’t be spending my time arguing with you guys.
