bug fixes and changes nerfing builds

so ive been playing off and on since alpha and i was having a good time with launch but everytime a new patch comes out for either active or passive skills i get fucked over if i have a build based on what ever was nerfed in the endless line of changes. now i understand trying to balance things but its kinda ridiculous that you change mechanics that builds are completely based around without even offering a free passive or attribute respec. ive made new builds three times already only to have them become unviable in the very next patch and then ive got to either play a new character or bootstrap the failing build together long enough to farm up the essence i need to reset and its just a royal pain in the ass to spend that time farming with a useless build instead of spending it trying out something new to find something i like.

thats my rant TLDR: changes to the passive skill tree that completely change how a mechanic or passive works should come with a free respec option

Have you tried playing the game for fun, instead of "min maxing" the most broken build that functions off of bugs or unintended effetcs? If your entire build is broken by a BUGFIX it wasn't a build, it was a bug exploit. Not anyone's fault but your own that you lack creativity and just build whatever the hive-mind has decided is the most "broken" build at the moment.

Really not much empathy here

Using the gold to essence conversion, farming up respec cost is literally doing one map so I don't really get why you're whining about that. I'd much much rather have an option to respec one point at a time without having to redo almost exactly the same tree from zero.

And yeah, as freedfromfear said, if your build is completely ruined after a patch then your build was based around a completely broken skill/mechanic.

With that said, you're right, the game shouldn't have been released yet, it's still in beta.
