For me, it was a welcome and predictable change, just as fixing Leech. A rather big chunk of all damage in the game is elemental. To be completely immune to it by mid game and thereby virtually invulnerable to magic attacks struck me from the very beginning as well, odd. Especially since it was so easy to obtain. It begged to be patched, really.
Still, I can see how people who has characters completely dependant on leech/100+ resists feel reluctant to start over. I just find it hard to believe people didn't see this coming. For me, the only thing that irks me is it wasn't fixed before the game shipped, or in an earlier patch.
Agreed with cap, but i think weather of the storm talent could be changed a bit, because warriors (like the swird and shield ive got) got most of their resistances capped fairly easy even without it. Probably a bonus to bb and willpower?
Doesn't need that. Warriors can throw weather the storm away and sacrifice its talent point for 10 ability points in the demon room, should be enough to give you more willpower and bodybuilding.
