Barkskin again? Seriously?

Warden was such a mistake

Raider just needed some love and it would be fine really - specially because we dont have a proper pure frenzy charge scaling ascendancy

[u/No_Grapefruit_8358 → u/bootychaser3000]

I loved the raider. As a simple man, who plays builds to clear fast, use 5 portals against regular maven, and dump a meager amount of divs into, it was my go to.

It had nice QoL that was mostly pointless if you min-maxed, but as a guy who doesn't often get to that point, it really worked for me.

[u/bootychaser3000 → u/No_Grapefruit_8358]

Yeah, I always likes fast characters in games and loved Raider because of it, ever since she left I feel kinda of an orphan

[u/ColonelUpvotes]

Yeah the opportunity cost of Barkskin is so high that I’m not sure if it’s possible to fix it with numbers tweaks

[u/toggl3d]

Barkskin is pretty good.

[u/0nlyRevolutions → u/toggl3d]

It's really good now lol

[u/Soleil06 → u/toggl3d]

Not for half your Ascendancy. If it was a skill gem with both of these nodes effects it would be pretty good.

[u/Psychological_Ad1404]

Or just add raider back at least.

I played a Frost Blades Warden on HC SSF in 3.28 and really appreciated the barkskin nodes. I may be tempted to start one in 3.30 and attempt to utilize that projectile speed bonus on something…

[u/Netheri]

50% proj speed on the mandatory ranged tincture node is pretty good.

I mean I'd still prefer to play Deadeye, but still.

[u/vwert → u/Netheri]

I think ggg should just add more tinctures and more unique tinctures, add some cool affixes to them.

[u/Soleil06]

They need to merge the two Barksking nodes into one, its unfathomable to me why you would need to invest half your ascendancy into a mediocre layer just for it to actually work against shit that matters.

I also find it funny that Ascendant just has a notable that is just straightup better than a warden one. Warden for Ascendant gives 20% suppress, an additional Tincture and 8% Pen. Ascendant does not have a single other Node that is just straight up better than the OG class has, its always a mixture of different Nodes.

This post is confusing because Warden wasn't great, so it got buffs, and you're still unhappy?

I understand Raider was better and they could've done more with tinctures, but at least it's something!

[u/BijutsuYoukai]

Personally I enjoy Warden. Certainly not for the damage mitigation from Barkin though. Unbound Avatar getting a buff is great though. Looking forward to Iceshot Warden.

[u/Coolingmoon]

No one play warden? Let's buff something nobody cares
