1.3.0 Patch Notes

Honestly I am for the new patch. Just like others have said the game was getting to easy. Also during group map play nearly every single class has been CoC build or SRS. Not much variety to behonest. We also get new skills and uniques. Who knows what combo's we can craft with new added content. Anyways glad to see the old META go and a new series of builds coming out. I see lots of tears . I am glad for the toon reset.

Hi, do u think guys that cloak of defiance will be useless after this patch? or is it a buff?

"

Hybrid weapon mods have been removed from Vagan and Tora's crafting options. Crafted items that already have these mods will not be affected. Their economic impact was severe.

Lame:(

"

Cyclone now attacks slightly slower and has an equivalent increase to damage. It now deals damage immediately when it is used, in addition to periodic damage. Cyclone no longer targets enemies, only locations.

I don't really get this one, how do you mean immediately?

"

Shield Charge now works with no primary weapon equipped.

Finally, a movement skill for facebreaker!

"

Cast on Critical Strike's cooldown has been increased from 0.01 seconds to 0.05 seconds.

Another nerf! I guess you won't be happy until no one plays CoC anymore.

"

Increased Critical Damage now provides 50% critical strike multiplier, up to 69% at gem level 20. It now provides 0.5% critical strike multiplier per 1% of quality.

Holy shit, what a nerf. There goes my crit LB witch. What the hell are you doing, you really don't want people to have fun, right?

"

All shields have had their block chance reduced.

Fml -_-

"

Atziri's Acuity: The modifier that makes leech apply instantly on critical strikes now has it apply instantly at 60% effectiveness. Existing versions of this item are affected by this change.

haha another nerf, only for the rich ones. Still lame though.

"

Cloak of Defiance: The 10% additional mana absorption has been removed.

Legacy CoD possible or not?

"

Crest of Perandus: Chance to block has been reduced from 10% to 5%.

Yes, let's take its only redeeming quality. Vendor unique from now on.

What a shitty patch. Nerf after nerf after nerf. My 2 characters that I'm playing now are severely nerfed after this.

Lost quite a lot of excitement for the new patch.

So basically melee blows a bit more, and more people will just play ranged instead. So pretty much more of the same, great job GGG.

worst update ever

Path of Exile Version 1.3.0

[li]Puncture now bleeds for 10% of hit damage at all levels. It also gains more increased physical damage per level.[/li]

Just to clarify, the mobile bleed damage is still the same as before right?

one thing im wondering about is how will spell casters fare in pvp since Saffell's Frame and lazhwar + rainbow striders can boost your spell block so quickly. Can anyone confirm if there is a new multiple mod master cost? I couldnt see it in the patch notes but read about it in the forum.

No matter if you're for the patch or against it, know this.....

poe will suffer and players will leave.

That is not a positive thing.

Have a nice day.

This is not a functional change. Those two skills have always dealt secondary damage, not spell damage. We usually indicate this by putting the "cast" rather than "spell" tag on those skills. That was missed at the time they were introduced, and has been corrected. It only changes the visual tags on the gem, and has no mechanical effect on anything the skills do.

I take it the upcoming fix to enable HoI work with Curse on Hit still didn't make it in yet?
