Skill Balance and Mana Costs
We've rebalanced many skills in 1.2.0. Some of the less-frequently used skills have received power buffs. Almost all skills have dropped in mana cost.

And that's good. Other than nerfing top builds ( dual spark, cleave, fp ) and making other top builds ( st/arc/rf) that gonna be nerfed later they should make all of these build untouched and equali viable. This will give us players much more choice.

shockwave totem buff??? yes please

im very happy about a fixed cost for socketing and linking armour

thank you

I have to say this sounds like the best changes ever made to PoE. Great work!

Haiku for Haku
Your rebellion is nought
Now you're in exile

Sad, you can't go home
But I killed Dom months ago.
Now give me phat loots.

Every single info you release about FM just makes me so damn happy, seriously this caught me off-guard, I wasn't expecting a lot before it was announced and now I'm just blown away.

Im interested how will this affect BM, currently not much people use BM keystone because of practically losing ability to use auras. And with lower mana cost BM gem may soon follow.

" Almost all skills have dropped in mana cost."
THIS ^.
Good news :D cyclone costs are ridiculous T_T

This has me very exited, can't wait!

I do have one question, since we will now be able to change the sockets on corrupted items will we also be able to link corrupted items?

For example could I in theory take a bunch of unlinked armours corrupt them for a desirable implicit and then pay the 1500 fusings to link it and then modify the socket colours? If yes that holy crap that's good news.
