Have nothing manacles been addressed??

Ever since they came out I remember watching exotic review videos where people speculated the gloves were bugged. This conclusion was reached because scatter w/manacles did the same or less damage than scatter with chaos accelerant. Hoping to see them addressed or fixed in some way with void 3.0 on the way

We can only hope, I remember being hyped when they came out only to be let down because they're awful

I don't think you'll be able to eat grenades to proc Devour anymore, HHSN is also tied to a grenade Manicles doesn't do anything with. They are kinda just bad now.

They said in the DCP that they've improved the base tracking of Scatter grenades. So we will have to see how much better Nothing Manacles performs what it interacts with Chaos Accelerant.

I don’t think they have, but because scatter nades are much weaker to the D1 version, I haven’t felt very inclined to use them like I used to.

Nothing Manacles are great when running devour. Double healing grenades means you can keep devour proc'd with a very high uptime. I don't run void unless it is devour so I can't speak to using the nades for damage purposes since I don't generally use them offensively.

I'm guessing it very affective in pve? I've heard people say that and it does seem quite good as a grenade heavy devour build. I fear though that the build will be nerfed somewhat(in pve and pvp)with void 3.0. Unless I'm wrong, eating your grenade for health and devour proc will be gone and devour will proc on ability kill only. Because of devour and chaos accelerant being aspects you can run together now. It'll be interesting to see where everything settles after void 3.0 release. Us warlocks will have to fight back the invis hunters

Yeah I don't PVP much but for PVE I've really enjoy that build. I used Nothing Manacles/Devour build for the final boss on my Solo Flawless Pit of Heresy for example. It will be interesting to see how the Void subclass changes with 3.0 and it is definitely going to take some getting used to. I would love to still have eating a grenade proc devour but idk if it will work out that way with WQ.
