You're a pinnacle boss, Harry.
If I was looking to shave some power off of this ascendancy for next league I'd definitely throw that in the bin.

The wrath aura the combatant merc has is a level 40 wrath aura, so the base is utterly insane. Getting 100% and higher effect is not that difficult with the luminary node, eldritch implicits, corruptions etc.

Oh, that's dumb. I thought merc level was supposed to scale some generic buff stats and gate gear they could equip. Gem levels makes incremental upgrades more important and explains why the 83 combatant was trashing my control blocks combatant.
This system is too powerful and only "balanced" by the clunk turning off players.

If something is going to be a little too good having it be the thing you have to double gear while specifically crafting items that no one would otherwise equip isn't the worst thing in the world. At the start of the league I was pretty sure they were OP but after diving in I'm now convinced they're so OP that crazy shit is going to keep coming up regularly even as nerfs start coming in. For GGG there's a lot of levers to pull and dials to turn in regards to balance. I don't expect a ton of nerfs next league, just some general power shaving but they're going to look entirely different next league start compared to this league start. Going in blind versus going in with a proper step by step guide in hand written by a turbo autist is completely different.
