Damage Over Time Changes - Part 2
I like those changes. I appreciate how you are trying to unite and simplify mechanics. But there are some cases when it's still a bit confusing.
Q1: When you deal critical strike with elemental damage you are going to cause elemental aligment. Will be possible to cause bleed or poison by critical strike similar way? Are there any other changes related to causing aligments by critical hit? Q2: You've mentioned that WED and similar modifiers were changed so that they increase all elemental damage caused by attacks. Does this mean there will be also modifiers which affects all elemental damage caused by spells? Q3: Will shock, chill or freeze aligments still be affected by initial hit damage? |

" Yes Caustic Arrow still deals Area Damage. Its clarified already, if monsters can run out of the damage zone your skill will be affected by Area Damage. Thats exactly the case with the Caustic Arrow Chaos Cloud. |

" What about "Local Chance to Poison/Bleed on Wands"? And everything related with wands No chance? |

Yeah! More item mods. Not that 99% of rare items are vendor trash, because of the few useful mods out of a huge pool of prefixes and suffixes an item (especially weapons) have to roll to be useful...
Can't remember when I found something really good among rare items. This league I skipped picking most ones up because it is a huge waste of time. I don't know if this is healthy in the long run for a loot based game. Quoting Izaro here: "We shall see..." Last edited by tobiasbruckert#7385 on May 3, 2017, 5:39:53 AM

" My fear exactly. Hopefully they'll introduce new mastercrafts at least ... PS: Rereading the part regarding crit multi and unarmed make me think of Hmmm... "Metas rotate all the time, eventually the developers will buff melee"

And here I was worried that GGG would over-complicate things again for an easy fix....
