Gear element proposal

[Gennady]

Proposal: make gear element (if gear is elemental) changing according to selected tree in K. Because:

1. Some people can't decide what build to choose and want to try both
2. Sometimes you change skills and another build becomes more appealing
3. We can change build any moment but elemental gear at the moment limits that feature

KR is removing elemental damage for those very same reasons you point. Apparently it will get replaced by some kind of neutral "power", the skill tree will get reworked and our builds will be, hopefully, more flexible thanks to that. We will see...

Korea isn't getting rid of elemental.  They are renaming it from fire/frost/light/ etc damage to just "elemental damage".

Those are their last patch notes.

That's all I know.

That is getting rid of elemental damage itself. Its a neutral power stat which will work on all skils regardless of build. They are also completely reworking classes and their functions.

For example: Wind summoner will be buff oriented, earth will be dps oriented and they will add another familiar build. Same with other classes that will have a more support build and a dps build.

No.... All "elemental" gear is still gonna be build specific because they're now getting skill modifiers instead...

Hmm, from what I understand, instead of a specific elemental, gear in Kr will now just be "elemental" without mattering if it's fire, ice, shadow, etc?

From KR patch notes: "

Items

"Elemental dmg" has been changed to "power"

>Same dmg % as before

>Old elemental obsidians can be turned in for new power obsidians"

 

And yes, as Granger said, our accessories will have different modifiers according to the "specialization" we choose with the skills revamp. And the developers claim that all these changes will allow for more flexibility in our builds, but of course that is yet to be seen. Might just be the same old thing in a new bottle.
