Thread: Patch 2.4 Notes - Preliminary

Please tell me how Nexus is obsolete with 2.4 coming out? The weapon is BIS for anyone stepping into T10 on Tuesday. Most likely the only way to get the new magitek weapons is to get the new tomestone from T11 or something. Also, the next progression of relic will come in a later patch.

Day one obsolete no. Within a couple weeks yes entirely. Higher ilvl almost always means higher weapon damage. Weapon damage is king of stats. Nexus is ilvl 115. Secondary stats are usually trivial compared to weapon damage.

Ironworks Magitek Jamadhars Pugilist's Arm Item Level: 120 / Equipment Level: 50
Augmented Ironworks Magitek Jamadhars Pugilist's Arm Item Level: 130 / Equipment Level: 50

Again I'm asking for clarification because this is what it looks like. It just seems like for all the hard work nexus requires, its overshadowed quickly.

Indeed it is. Should be no surprise, seeing as how every big patch brings a 20 ilvl increase in tomestone gear. (myth -> sold -> poetics)

your definition of quickly, what is it?
Are you expecting people to have the 120 weapons, day 1? It's gonna take at least 3 weeks to get one and who knows if people have already cleared content that requires the thing to make it. Until then, your precious nexus is still the best weapon available.

you forget that
- people need a tomestone that drop in final coil to buy the new weapon before 2.5 (where it should drop from CT3)
-fcoil is one(two) tomes for 8player /week
-nexus is not the final stage of relic.
