Brimstone nerf set my Clanboss progress way back(like 3 million damage)! I was very close to 2 keying nightmare. I was using Brimstone on Pythion and it now needs ACC to land. WTF!

"We hate players who don't spend 1000$+ a week on this game and nerfed anything that might help them. You're welcome!"

Well, great start of Plarium vs Players year! Nerf the PvE to get an illusion of improved PvP is the dumbest move by far. I'm sure that several of us players are one step closer to quitting this continuus abuse from developers.
Just take a look at those shepherds in Plat Arena leaderboards...

PVP Content viable Blessings.
What I have heard. Since I'm in no state of playing with the big guys. My Account ist to young ( only 2 years) and Im no spender.
Polymorph is messing up the Arena. The Problem with incinerate and lethal dose
Incinerate and lethal Dose ( Poison and HP Burn) would Trigger the sheep even morgen iften. So why pick the two Blessings, that don't have a massive Impact in the Arena.
Temporal Chains
The Platplayers complained, that some Champs who placed Buffs at the start of the fight could not be used anymore. Also the devine speedset ( which you can buy every so often in the Shop - Which is more effissient to buy Artefactsets then to actualy try to Farm them).
Which makes matters worse the effect of Temporal Chains staks.
So Plarium listened to the Plat Playerbase and buffed temporal Chains.
Since it is the year of PVP*. Which makes perfect sense.
That ist also why Incinerate and Lethal Dose will not find its was into PVE content.
Iron Twins Dungeon and Rewards.
The rewards from farming this Dungeon ist lacking at best. And only the higher stages (14 and 15) bring some value.
Brimstone helped a lot in this Dungeon because the Debuffs could not be removed by the boss.
There was still the RNG Factor of placing the Smite Debuff at the right time.
But it helped. Since the boss has a high resistence. The Gen requirement ist quite high.
Luckily most legendary Champs which we're in the Team did not had to have the high Gen to place the Smite Debuff.
Now that is obsolete.
So for the new Players it is even harder to farm the Dungeon in Hope to get enough Points to eventually buy a 4 or even 6 Star Blessing for their Champs.
So the Nerf to Brimstone f...cks the Playerbase Double. It also negates the core mechanics of Blessings. It is Plariums way of saying to the Playerbase. Every Penny spend in this Game ist not worthwhile (anybody Nerf in Urogrim)
*Plarium vs Playerbase

Sorry to tell you but yall messed up Brimstone, yall should know it is hard for F2P players to get 5 and 6 star blessings. I think it is wrong of yall to cater to big spenders, and with this change u should at least bring the cost down for the blessing shop and put some immortal and Eternal souls in the daily login rewards and or in the quest. To at least give the F2P player a chance to progress in this game
Agree with you 100%

What about the core machanics. They do not count anymore?
It seems to me, because their MOD wrote: "Brimstone needing accuracy and being cleansable is a... thing now."

So now my main char is stuck with a worthless Brimstone blessing as she has no accuracy.
I guess that settles whether I'm going to renew my monthly gem pack or not. Why even bother when my progress gets nerfed to hell?

I am impressed by the constructive criticisms I have read.
I know that in my restaurant business, if I tell loyal customers that I am making changes that I better not just increase prices and eliminate popular food choices. I need to bring down some prices and increase menu items.
I suggest that you increase your rewards and listen to your informed customer base while they are still on your plaatform.
