Hello, FelixTape here! I know you might haven't seen much of me, but I'm a newer addition to the Item Team. Thanks for having me.

Now, let's talk business;


For the coming update, some changes have been decided upon for Mastery Tomes. Some might be points of contention, others might be well-liked, but one in particular regards the skill points on tomes and changes to them, so the Item Team has decided to announce this early.

First off, a few guild tomes (Sadist, Mastermind, Brute, Ghost, Arsonist) will be getting their SP increased from 3 to 4, at the cost of their respective elemental damage ID being removed.

People hardly ever used them in favor of the dual element or rainbow guild tomes, so hopefully this will help them catch up a bit.

More importantly, Weapon Tomes will no longer give skill points in ANY fashion. This affects Earthbound, Nimble, Mystical, Warding, Athletic, and Cosmic tomes. Therefore, the max possible SP is being reduced from 215 to 205, and that only guild tomes will provide any skill points at all.

We are aware, and are not taking lightly, that this will be a large shift in the way building works. That's why we're announcing this change now, to give players some time to adjust.

We hope you all look forward to the update as much as we are! There's been a lot of love put into it.

Finally I can get 0 skill points without having to unequip tomes. Best update ever.

 

HAHAHA I know some War/TNA minmaxers with [7] tomes who are gonna be PISSED. That's so funny

Tbh I don't think, for the committed regulars (Endgame) playerbase at least, this changes much. People have long since shifted away from skill point tomes and prefer Double Mythic for the damage.

Thank God BLue's Builds doesn't have to fix too many builds :pray:

ALSO PEOPLE DON'T FORGET Mana tomes are being buffed soonTM

 

GOOD ENDING
(well besides the multitudes of other problems tome balancing has)
still very glad to see this step being taken, begrudgingly makes guild tomes even more valuable in comparison but SP so readily available on tomes never made sense with either their original design or the later version of them imo

 

And here I thought this update was gonna make me come back. Oh well... I see others think it's good, so I guess it is. But this ain't making me excited lol.
