This is going to make using smoke tendrils more dangerous and change rotations with it. The biggest negative is how normal mode zuk will be way harder for those of us who don't have zuk capes, let alone even attempt hm zuk.

indeed tank armour is now trash again, watch crypt bloom go down to 100k per piece

The point of animate dead was to make tank armour a viable option for pvm, given that literally 99% of people used power armour before hand, and now its once again dpsmoarscape

a sad sad day indeed, and a step backwards for combat diversity

We knew this update for half a year already. Evidently Animate Dead is still very useful for most players as offense is for most of the time the better defense.

We don't need Cryptbloom to use Animate Dead anyway. I don't have Cryptbloom and my POP armors work very well all the time.

If Cryptbloom drops a bits in price, I may buy a set eventually, but I seriously doubt it as Necromancy is around the corner and players existing and new will be going for the Necromancy gear, new runes and such and supply of Cryptbloom will be significantly lower.

"Animate Dead is still very useful for most players as offense is for most of the time the better defense." this sentence makes literally zero sense, your arguing against your own point. Offence IS usually the best defence, which is WHY animate dead was created in the first place, and which is why making it less useful will only return the situation back to dpsmoarscape

yes, supply of crypt bloom may well go down while people level necromancy, but demand will drop even more, and regardless, thats a short term issue, as people will train necromancy, max it, and go back to end game pvm - in dps gear now that tank armour is useless (in comparison to dps gear) once more
