Hey,



I've seen that the Martial arts jewel (10-15% increased area when unarmed) has not been improved since the whole area refactoring. I am wondering if it was forgotten about or intended, or maybe it works the old way.

The jewel used to be worth AoE of about 3 passives.

When 20% of old AoE has been made into 50% of the "new" AoE, I don't see how 15% didn't become 35% (37.5% would be perfectly proportional).



Let me know if it's getting fixed, or is it just a garbage jewel now. Thanks! Last bumped on Mar 11, 2017, 2:15:35 AM Posted by

Most AoE items for melee are now garbage tier.



Hell, I barely notice the difference of a lvl 18 Inc AoE gem. So 15% is a total waste of a jewel slot. Posted by

AOE increases on most (all?) unique items were intentionally left untouched. GGG is monitoring these items during the 2.6 epoch to determine whether further balance changes to them are necessary. [img]http://image.prntscr.com/image/2e57fcaba2ea48cc9832fecc55c6d0d6.png[/img] Posted by

Im playing a Slayer, i had the Area of Effect nodes and i dont even really see a difference at all on my skills. I have even tried the inc area of effect gem but im sure its exactly how you described.



The entire area changes showing melee was completely disingenuous. They fucked melee real hard with them. Currently playing cleave, clear is soo fucking slow and im a Slayer with the Templar area nodes, with the Cleave gem. Thats how abysmal the area changes are for melee skills.
