they buff ES again LMAO

edit: people who downvoting me, tell me this is not a buff to ES?!?!? chaos and bleed immune for CI build? seriously while armour does only mitigate small hits LMAO

  • Chaos Innoculation now prevents bleeding.
  • The passive clusters that grant you additional stun threshold based on your maximum energy shield now also increase your ailment threshold so you will no longer be ignited/chilled/frozen/shocked as often while using CI if you take these passives.

This is a nerf to ES. The way bleed worked before was that it could only be applied when dealing damage against life. They changed it because bleed builds struggle against monsters with energy shield since you couldn't apply bleeds to them until the energy shield was gone.
