New Sentinel's Skill Coming in Patch 0.8.3 - Void Cleave

Something I’d really like to know is Erasing Strike getting an update too? Its current tree is basically a bunch of on-kill effects and only on-kill effects (modifying void rifts is modifying an on-kill effect).

Mike confirmed an update to all “Heavy hitters”, like ES, Judgment and Forged Strike for example.

While Erasing Strikes Skill Tree is not the most modern, it is one of the skill trees with the most straight forward damage nodes.

It has 4 more dmg multipliers and another flat void damage node, which is alot for such an old skill.

That Erasing Strike “only has on kill nodes” is not true though.

Of 23 nodes, 12 relate to on-kill effects, that’s quite a lot & fine for trash but not super-awesome for bosses.

Edit: Judgement has 8 more damage nodes & 1 flat damage node.

That one is easy for me.
Never used it so i dont have any regrets testing it , while pretending the skill being new :wink:
Btw when are more detailed damage tooltips coming?
What we got so far is very minimalistic and often innacurate. Any timeline?

Apart from minion tooltips, there’s not much they can do with the ones we’ve got apart from add a tab that details the skill’s effects, damage, crit chance, etc.

Mike confirmed my statement was correct. The DR that mobs get per level is a generic % DR that is not modifiable in any way by the player, so you should just ignore it when you think about how to min-max your damage.

Any quotes where they said that?
I honestly dont believe this very simplitic and often innacurate tooltip makes them any remotly proud.
Also funny always to see your name in the notifications here.

No, but they’ve said before that the tooltip dps is a very complicated thing to set up, I think that they’ve said that it almost needs to be put together, or tweaked, individually for each skill/proc/etc. There’s also a lot of things that the tooltip can’t “know” about a skill or a situation “upfront” such as whether the target is on high life or low life, or other conditional modifiers, in addition to skills that have been set up incorrectly (such as the tooltip for channelled spells being affected by cast speed).

Yeah, I get bored at work (to answer your previous edit :wink: ).

Hyped for the Sentinel love.
