@ShadowHeart Santa Shadow, can we please have a Sunder Charm giveaway this Christmas?
Uh well unless they do something about the drop rates I might have 2 or 3 sunders by the end of the ladder
I'm in CET (Central European Time)

My profile says Softcore, but I play bothSoftcore and Hardcore.

And I don't see why they had to remove the old Sunder charms. Just leave them dropping, as previously... and whoever wants the better Latent/Renewed charms can (and will) farm Heralds.
^This. Imagine starting Ladder next week. Fight Heralds with self found gear. LoL. This is impossible.
I have 20 heroes, all of them geared up and level 95+. All of them were able to play terror zones without an issue in D2R. In RotW, most of them are trash now. I am sticking to my Java, since she is the only one not struggling here.
Bowazon? Merc gets killed in 2 seconds, then I am kiting for like 5 minutes.
Barb? Yeah, have fun being encircled by 20 mobs with Concentration or Thorns. Attack once, retreat, drink potion, repeat. Great gameplay. You better get some Draculs, its impossible without Life Tap!
Sorceress? Teleport-Kiting contest winner of the year.
Zoo Druid? Hm, your minions are tasty.
Dragondin? Works. Can do Tier 5 Heralds with a bit of caution. Second best of my heroes behind the Javazon.
I'm actually glad to see this post Dasnarf. I have only played my barbarian since ROTW dropped and i've killed probably 20 heralds. I did hork an Arachnid Mesh out of a Herald of Terror (lvl 5 Herald) but so far that's the only drop I've gotten worthwhile. Llama has confirmed that the drop rate for sunders is abysmally low and they are going to be addressing that soon.
I have had some serious issues killing the lvl 5 heralds on my barb, i can do it, but it does use a lot of potions. I have been playing on p5 so i'm not sure if that affects the heralds or not (i assume it does)
Therefore, easiest fix: Bring back the old Sunder Charms to RotW
For many players and many builds, the Sunder is almost a requirement. Yet starting now that requirement is almost non-existent. When the ladder resets we will see a lot more unhappy campers. You need 'power' to run through TZ, you need 'power' to combat the Herald, but this is all for an item that is required to even be viable for a lot of players.
Best fix would be for a classic Sunder to be brought back, something more easily found or traded for. Then players can do this end game quest to upgrade their plain one. But the drop rate appears to be still too "holy grail" for my tastes.
