[Feature Idea] DPS change overlay #412

Open qancho opened 7 years ago

qancho commented 7 years ago

Hey Openarl,

I wrote you in the forums but I'm not quite sure if you even read the PMs in there, so I'm just posting it here aswell. What do you think about a small overlay next to bigger nodes on the tree that show your %DPS increase/decrease if you skill them? Probably have to make it toggleable so the whole screen wont be cluttered with numbers. Same thing goes for the links on skills. There could be even a small trial and error algorithm to show the optimal links for your main skill.

Regards and keep up the good work, Qancho

I do check the forum PMs occasionally, but I must have missed yours.

Anyway, what you're asking for on the passive tree sounds very similar to the existing Node Power feature, although it displays it using colour instead of text. Doing something similar for support gems isn't something I'm very keen on doing though, as the difference in the power of supports often involves factors beyond the tooltip DPS change.
