  • Much of it has to do with Firefox’s decisions in the past 5-7 years that have made it very unfriendly to enterprise environments. The provisioning tools have gotten progressively more hostile to IT departments.

    The US government is also finally moving to more modern systems for authentication and Mozilla has incorporated some particularly poor changes to how the stack is handled that are very unfriendly to IT environments that need to manage credentials for multiple authoritative sources. We had to switch to Chrome a couple years ago because our support cases with Mozilla would on many occasions come back with a response of ‘we’ve made our decision and will not be considering changes’.

    Unfortunately, as Firefox kicks itself out of the enterprise market; that’s going to cascade to the personal market even further as well.





  • At this point, landslide is just too reliable. You can start running it by level 15, and it morphs into one of the more powerful endgame builds (Subterranean Creeper). It’s also shockingly easy to gear into. The terramote/creeper interaction gives you access to assured crits, and higher damage than you should realistically have at low level. Which is a shame since landslide is an incredibly boring playstyle.

    Pulv/CocaineBear is also pretty easy to get into, and will perform decent even before you get the uniques. I dropped landslide for Pulv for leveling, but pulv does have a weakness in having awful single target.




  • The class has a very slow, very rough start; and is extremely gear/aspect dependent. However, once you are over the level 60-ish hump, it becomes an absolute powerhouse. I specifically chose the class because of how bad it was in beta, and I have loved how strong it ended up.

    Pulv Druid, Trampslide both use earth skill passive synergy to ramp to a very solid strength, and are very easy to build into.

    The wolf variants (Stormclaw, Tornado Wolf, CroneWolf, PoisonShred) all rely on getting the unique helm Tempest Cowl to start off. They are also very greedy about needing good stat rolls and aspects to get the crazy ramp. Much of their power is also tied up in the paragon board. That said, these are easily among the most broken OP builds in the game at the moment.
