- Frost Walls created by you or your allies are now no longer considered enemies for the purposes of projectile collision detection (your projectiles will not collide with your own Frost Wall). This intentionally fixes the exploit case where a player stacks many Frost Walls around a boss and uses a skill like Piercing Lightning Arrow to trigger an excessive amount of hits.

Other big news Melee is making a comeback

- Ground Slam: 15% more damage OPOP

Basically nothings changing. Some areas of stupidity were culled but many remain. Regular walls will still trigger secondary damage but it's nice to see Frostwall got fixed. Juggernaut EC nerf, good...because fuck you scrub Dischargers. Vortex t-value...will it actually matter, we'll see. Why weren't Pathfinder, Inquisitor touched and why weren't other skills given t-values in lieu of ones that no one gave a crap about except Vortex.

Melee directly was buffed due to other game changes. We also received some decent buffs to melee gems and a rightful nerf to Derpquake. Looking forward to the poison nerfs in the future too.

System performance improvements will help somewhat deal with whatever cancerous retarded trigger builds remain. Up until this point it was screen freeze...die, huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuur huuuuuuuuuuuuuur.

Legacy gear and now enchantments, pretty lame.

Something is better then nothing though, it'll be a better patch then we've had.

Also T-value for Vortex!!!!!!! Cheeeeeeeeea boyeeeeeeeeeeee

I think my dude will still be powerful, but not quite as OP as before obviously. Which I couldn't give 2 shits about, fuck that character lol

Tbh, I don't Think Frost wall hurts my build, not nearly as much as La and IS and Kb builds~

I'm Okay With these changes Personally.


I'm more so concerned about how shitty Scion has been for a good long while now... and BV 20 stacks Seems, reasonable, since the damage has been buffed, It'll be interesting to see melee guys again.

Scion needs a rework as well as a non Caitlyn Jenner portrait. Lot of work ahead.

LOL'ed hard at the melee buff thing.

Yeah

5% MORE DMG FOR HEAVY STRIKE MELEE IS FIXED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yea not much has been touched. But its better than nothing.

Curious about the immunity changes. Might try a thing or two but yea nothing major.

Well we know what spell GGG is trying to push next league. FB had quite high dps in pve already and could clear whole screen with this explosion radius gem.

This 50% more damage smell like a trick from ggg to try it, same shit they done with spark when 2.0 came.

I hate those pushed skill meta personaly. Poor markusz, mathil will probably make a build using it bringing again the nerf hammer on it for 2.5.

I also remember fireball from tommy, it was opi op in past.
