80 heralds? Wasn't the idea that every killed Herald makes the next one stronger, even inside the highest tier? I once went to ten heralds in a row, and the last couple ones could Teleport and one-shot me from half a screen, so I would have guessed that Herald no. 80 would be unkillable...

Can be used to make Runewords:
No, the max tier was always 5, and tier 5 is tier 5, there is no further difficulty scaling within tier 5. After killing 4 heralds in the same game, all heralds from that point on in the same game are of tier 5, it will never go higher. That some feel more difficult than others has more to do with which base monster type was turned into a Herald and which mods it spawned with. It worked like this before and that part wasn't changed, it's still max tier 5.
1. Herald of Fright
2. Herald of Dread
3. Herald of Fear
4. Herald of Horror
5. Herald of Terror (max)

wonder if they will ever fix the protector Stone bug on items besides weapon. Or is that something hard coded in the game's logic?
Hmmm. I was certain I had read that in some official announcement somewhere, but I can't find it right now.ShadowHeart wrote: 1 hour agoNo, the max tier was always 5, and tier 5 is tier 5, there is no further difficulty scaling within tier 5.

Anyway, also just read this:
So either way, I'm not getting cutthroat duels with killer heralds for meaningful loot, but just an additional layer of uniques with garbage drops. Exactly what the game needed, because there was so little of it before.Blizzard wrote:Reduced the difficulty of Heralds above Tier 1.
Health bonus per Tier reduced 500% to 250% (starts at 1000%).
Damage bonus per Tier reduced from 50% to 25% (starts at 50%).
It's not about the Protector's Stone per se. Jewels with both min/max and ed% have always been bugged in this regard when slotted into anything other than weapon, it just became a bigger issue due to the introduction of the Protector's Stone (hardly anyone used the min/max + ed% jewels before anyway).

Wish they kept their spawn rate the same, and increased the threat/buffed their drop table considerably
I don't get why they put sunders into the regular drop table either........ i think it would have been much better to keep them exclusive to heralds but just raise the drop chances to a reasonable level. It's like if colossal ancients were too hard and so blizzard put the colossal jewels into the regular drop table to make up for it. It just makes me feel there's even less of a point to actually spend time to farm heralds
I think it was cool that they were rare! I feel like the best version of this system is one where heralds are rare and challenging, and in exchange actually rewarding. Not just a telegraphed unique pack :/
Are shards going to have literally any value at this point? 
They seem extremely common...
They seem extremely common...
hope they release like a token done with 5 shards to reroll a sunder
