Taking a look at the skill usage, unsurprisingly the least popular skill in the game is Energy Twister. Really pisses me off because of all the discussion about it during PTR and how it could be made better, and then they just go and Jay Wilson its damage.
Second worst is between Impale and Spike Trap, which also had discussion, especially for Spike Trap. The vast majority of players were very unhappy with the Spike Trap change, which basically made the skill unplayable. The very vocal minority would say l2p and gitgudscrub and apparently they won. Look where that's gotten us now.
Also, apparently, Pile On and Explosive Beast are more popular than my beloved Lumbering Cold. I feel like a hipster...
This next patch may be make or break for skills. They have had ample time, through Beta, PTR, and now release to adjust a lot of these problem skills, which they still haven't. Everyone playing beta was too busy sucking Blizzard's plantain to actually raise any concerns. Everyone playing PTR was basically ignored about this. 2.0.5 is supposedly filled with skill changes and adjustments, to follow up on the single target primary and Crusader adjustments from last patch. I'm considering making threads about specific skills on official forums since it's release now, but at the same time, this community is so pomegranatety not sure if I should bother at all.
Yes I do agree MOST of the community is hilariously bad haha.
