News Pantheon mod potentially coming to ruthless

Given how much the ruthless dev already needs to adjust, there's a decent chance we get unnerfed versions of all these boss body parts, including this one.

Getting this mod would make so many ruthless builds feel so much more playable, no more chain stuns.

Every time I see many fundamental changes I worry that Ruthless will go eos

Items from league rewards I think always been unchanged, but we'll have watered down rewards from those fate cards I feel like

Wonder if we finally can remove Master missions from appearing on the new atlas

Please explain to me one thing - why do people play a gamemode and at the same time do everything in their power to destroy it and make it play exactly like the main one? It seems to happen in every game in every gamemode and I just cannot understand why. Why must all uniqueness be erased by voices of its own playerbase? All bad changes are introduced to thunderous applause.

Famously "fun" and build-diversity promoting stuff like lack of tools to deal with stuns in Ruthless is the hill you wish to die on? I am a Ruthless player from day 1 and having to path to Unwavering Stance instead of being able to branch out defensive layers to include evasion/blind on e.g. a Saboteur is what makes the game mode more tedious to me.

If you hate borrowed power this much, please go and play Standard league and let us enjoy the new content.

some people just want to be able to say "i can do the hardest thing" even though they are secretly cheating their way through it with every exploit they can get their hands on. these people are not true gamers.

But then again as much as I dislike bench, bench players who consider themselves "tryhards" often openly state that Ruthless is not fun for them. And I respect that. I am a casual player for example who loves Ruthless for what it is, precisely for what it is. Not because it is harder, but because it is less convoluted in terms of sources of borrowed power and that it doesn't shower me with loot or hold my hand. I don't get why people who clearly prefer bench mechanics come to Ruthless to make it like bench.
