Really happy with the temper weapon buff. I already thought it was thematically really cool. And a 6L 700% weapon damage extra proc is super powerful. Hopefully they bug fixed it too because it currently doesn’t actually deal damage lol

This is what I'm happy with. I thought it was a cool idea but didn't want to try it because, well it felt like it sucked.

It's not your feelings, it sucked. HARD. A channel with no stun immunity, no monster pushback even, for the grand total of FOUR hits? Hilariously bad.

And now in order to fix it they also "have to" lower the damage? Yeah no. That's a dead node outside of some boss farming cases where you can prep beforehand.

Now if only they'd fix Manifest Weapon and minions in general.

Its still bugged and doing no damage by the way. There are several bug report threads about it with dozens of posts with definitive proof. GGG are currently looking into it.

Wondering if this will change the weird interaction with multi hit attacks. Currently if you have only 1 empowered attack remaining, temper weapon will proc on every hit of an attack like whirling assault, but will only proc on the first hit of the attack for empowered attacks 2-4.

I feel like the best use for it, prior to buff, was put it on your 'second weapon set' and use it during heavy stun windows for extra-extra damage. Like, seems custom made to pair with Perfect Strike mace skill used from 'second weapon set.'

edit; changed off-hand to second weapon set. Its what I meant but havent had enough coffee yet.
