airoun: Bruh I remember when Sload’s first came out! That junk was so overpowered, I’m surprised it wasn’t on the list tbh

thedarkanchor111: Viper tremorscale with blackrose was a crazy meta

Gutz1204: My first ever build was a fury/seventh legion build on a warden. Got it from kodi pvp when I saw his video it made me play the game. Been acting like I’m good ever since. Lol

TheWizardMetatron: Honorable mention: Pariah Crimson Oath Mist form meta.... THAT was the worst

UR_AL_SHOOK_UP: Great video brotha, My favorite Time was when bone pirate and hundings rage, and blood spawn was the shizz nit hahaha

IROPP4I: Loved this video! Oh the nostalgia!

People will look back at the current patch and remember the completely broken max magsorcs.

One I didn’t see in the video: overwhelming mag DK with elf bane and zaan! It was absolutely insane! Zaan increased by 5 seconds used to nuke everyone. Overwhelming used to do hella damage and return so much mag! That was my favourite meta ever!

TheLostSoulESO: I miss my 7th/fury DK. All these years later, I've kept those sets in the bank. Though that tarnished bug was insane. I think I still have a screenshot somewhere of seeing a 75k hit from it in recap.

Colorado94: Honourable mention: Mara's Balm meta

Gangbu_: bonk

nickcrawford2456: I'm shocked that there wasn't even a mention of the Master's Dual Wield/Vateshran/Maarselok meta. Between maybe 2021 and 2023, that build got slapped on literally every class but NB gankers. You had content creators on YouTube churning out those build vids daily, and thinking they had the secret sauce because they used some off-meta set instead of Way of Fire/Dragon's Appetite, as if the weapons weren't so broken that you could wear whatever armor you wanted and still kill everyone.

nomadsland8322: Defile builds back when there was CP to buff it.

Maxed out, Fasallas Guile had a unique 77% defile, major defile was easy to get with reverberating bash and was 45%, minor defile wasn’t as easy to get but it was still a whopping 27% at max. There’s a reason they have major at 12% and minor at 6% now, I think it’s too weak, but it was broken at its peak.

ELEX_TP: Bash necro was horrible to play against, tarnished is the worse for sure, that set was everywhere

Should have a special mention to sloads/shieldbreaker/oblivion damage meta

Also the dot meta when axes left bleeds, master DW with 2 axes on a dot dk was nasty

OnelastgoTV: "mag sorc back in the day was insanely broken" Brother, they're still insanely broken, thats why all the dogshit players have rerolled them

HouseTre007: Real shit, for part 2 you can include tremorscale reverb bash build with lingering health pots, the sloads torugs oblivion dmg build, if I think of other ones I’ll comment them here.

meliodascsjo_gaming2637: imagine starting to play during the viper, selenes/velidreth meta and being a noob with no cp and playing in cp cyro.

That was me.

Through all the hardship and oneshots it made me stronger.

Also made me love soul assault as an ult to kill those pesky cloak nightblades. XD

great video.

I am missing the double Infused masters daggers, sloads meta. Where rending procked both enchants off cooldown in addition to the instand sloads. That was helllllllllll

xnbk-yotiex5247: Gave a like. Thanks for a trip down memory lane. I remember all these. Even the days of MagSorc using triple shields. Punishment days.

Oh and the Templar blazing shield build… lol. I use to solo vet dungeons with that build before it was a thing.

Awesome video

rednecksniper4715: Thew of the harbinger with titanborn, Balorgh and blazing shield on the Templar was an absolutely disgusting combination til they changed thew

blakewilson3002: Plaguebreak dark convergence on a dk with corrosive

kgarrett4859: Dang hrothgar didn’t make it on here I was doing 80k procs with hrothgar they nerfed that in a week. Then Phoenix in imp city was nerfed when combined with vd you never died you just kept exploding and was immortal that set was broken couldn’t be killed. Took 3 months to fix that

summerbrez: Yoo

Eman you really cooked with this one!

Gg, such a fun video to watch

I'd also definitely add to notorious builds: dragon's appetite, master's maces, vateshran ice staff dot meta

I'm still using that build on dk, it's pretty decent even these days

khar8630: Scalebreaker was the worst meta for me personally, I was playing stamnb during that time when dots did like twice the damage compared to now

xxMLGxxSnipers: They should really rework the sets that used to be popular and are now dead. Imo.

LynxAtrocity: No tremor scale DK mention? -.- I see

Jonekmo: 2nd

ruydecarvalho3927: Like you said you could have a 10 part series to this easily!! Great idea for content ngl.. as an OG from release I remember all of this and more..

when you were talking bout blazing shield Templar it reminded me of the necro build that ran harbinger and blood lord embrace which during the Templar jab spam meta it meant all templars would kill themselves when I blocked their jabs on my harbinger necro.. was soo OP and way too much fun Lool
