- Curse Area passive skills on the Passive Tree have been halved, now granting 10% Curse Area of Effect (previously 20%). The Zone of Control Notable skill now grants 20% increased Curse Area of Effect (previously 40%) but also grants 10% increased Curse Magnitudes (previously 8%). The Curse Area small passives on the Lich and Abyssal Lich now grant 15% increased Curse Area (previously 25%).

- Temporal Chains, Elemental Weakness, Enfeeble, Vulnerability, Despair and Inevitable Agony now have lowered radius scaling for Gem Level 20+, increasing by 0.1 metres every 3 levels (previously every level).

- These changes are accompanied by a rework to Doedre's Undoing by changing it from scaling off Intellgence to instead scale based on the Supported Curses Level. This opens up the build without having to be Intelligence stacking.

- Curse Area of Effect Mods on Jewels have been reduced. Regular Jewels now grant 8-12% Curse Area of Effect (previously 15-25%) and Timeless Jewels now grant 3-6% (previously 6-12%).

I assume this is the end of Doedre's Undoing build ? yet another niche build get destroyed. increased curse area of effect is very crucial on this build as it needed to cover the whole screen to be effective. radius from curse itself also nerfed. on top of that Doedre's Undoing itself damage no longer scale on INT and we don't know how new scaling works with curse skill gem level.
