LOL, The game is more Path of Life Nodes than ever before.

Just got 2-shotted with 5k health by Hybrid Widow.

Anyone expecting any different was overly optimistic to begin with.

How much.AR you have?

The HP nerf has also nerfed Life Leech, and it's made it that much harder for melee. I don't understand buffing dmg only to nerf survivability. The balance is off. The damage doesn't counter the amount of sustain that is lost.

The dmg boosts to melee are still horrible, giving like extra 4% to every node aint gonna help crap, you need to double the amount.

60k dps instead of 30k? Splendid...

BM is now difficult to run, so people are only going to stack MORE hp and kaoms

I'm (currently) a RoA Ranger with BloodMagic+Lifeleech on it, so I don't benefit from melee buffs, my dps dropped a ton (ele dmg reduced and RoA misses now) so I leech less.
Hp dropped too ofc as the nodes give less, so survivability took quite a hit :(

More HP nodes and Kaoms would help a lot (if I could afford it), I guess there are quite some people who feel the same.
Reducing Hp and damage income is fine, but I guess they didn't think about BM users, maybe a Buff to Life Leech could straighten that out...but it would make melees with LL too strong.

I think rangers are just feeling the actual effects of having less survivability and less damage output. It is the way it should have been a long time ago.

Maybe they simply balanced it so that Blood Magic is useful only for certain builds rather than being a thing you use for every build that isn't CI.
