wait... what? no more Max Resists for Purity?
" Players who were using purity can not simply switch to a single ele resist aura due to missing cold and light resist unless you were grossly overcapped and used it for nothing but the +2 max. IGN: Arlianth

I use purity out of necessity because I use facebreakers which takes a ton of my resists away. Since new aura is 40%, I can run hatred 60% + purity 40% + 1 other purity 40% = 140%, with level 20 reduced mana x 0.71 = 99.4% mana.

I'm playing self found. I'm level 60 running merc with something like 75/60/60/-40 resists and doing fine.
I haven't even found any resist gems. I haven't found cast on damage taken. I don't have uber gear. I have no idea what all the complaining is about. I was getting smashed by Weaver (chaos damage) in merc so I equipped a chaos ring... Theres a top chance a lot of you complaining are simply too stubborn to change an item from your build to fit circumstance. |

at first i was annoyed by this change but now my res are all still 75% and im doing fine, picked up grace for alot of extra armour and feel its more balanced
it has also made life based rf more viable again thanks to the new fire res aura and encourages smarter party play, good move GGG |

" Play little more and in act 3 you're gonna get farmed by archmages. Also even on 66 overgrown ruins map boss hit for 3k lightning damage against 77% resists (no enfeeble). After Purity nerf i dropped all mana reservation nodes and put them in hp. Better just use flasks now |

The issue wasn't that purity needed to be nerfed, it did, its that GGG did nothing to fix the real issue which was elemental damage scaling
|
|
" Ah this combined with the end game maps explanation is giving me a bit of perspective. Looks like I have some gems to find :(. Can anyone confirm if armor does anything against elemental damage? |

so the OP is complaining about the max resists nerf, saying it was uncalled for, then people bash him because they say it was called for, then the people that agreed with the nerf say that the + max resists barely affected a player's survivability. Makes sense. Was good enough for a laugh at least.

" Who cares? It wasn't that much more max res anyways. This whiner generation of gamers sucks. Be happy you can play for free. |
