(2021) [Discussion] Defences aren't actually buffed if new mobs are balanced around everyone using them

I feel like GGG didn't actualy buff defence at all.

Sure, spell suppression sound great, but when new mobs do upwards of 20k non crit damage, spell sup isn't a new option, it's a necessity.

To feel as tanky this league as I did in previous leagues I actually invest more in defence and roll more items for pure defensive stats than before.

We're planning to reduce the power level of some of the Scourge monsters. I don't have the exact details just yet but my hope is that we'll be able to share more information in official news posts soon.

Heya Bex, when can we expect the "What we're working on" post that we usually get?

Aiming for tomorrow or the day after but there's a patch that's currently scheduled for today (maybe tomorrow) which includes improvements for a variety of key things.
