Classes and Balance

Weapon Enchantments and Multi-Proccing Various powers, across many classes, have been adjusted to trigger one weapon enchantment proc per target, per activation. (Example: A single activation against 5 enemies can proc up to 5 times.) Various powers that previously did not proc weapon enchantments at all have been updated to properly proc them.

Control Wizard Arcane Power Field now functions as the tooltip states. Arcane Power Field now has a range of 40', increased from 30'. Arcane Power Field now properly deals Arcane damage. Arcane Power Field no longer functions while it is not equipped. Combustive Action: This power can no longer debuff the caster. Evocation: The Artifact Off-hand bonus now functions properly with all AoE powers. Evocation: The Artifact Off-hand bonus now buffs damage by 5%, increased from 3%. Frost Wave: The debuff applied by this power is now correctly a debuff, rather than displaying as a buff. Frost Wave no longer functions while it is not equipped. Icy Rays now consistently deals increased damage at higher ranks. Icy Rays now properly procs weapon enchantments. Icy Terrain now procs weapon enchantments on the first hit only. Icy Terrain now correctly deals damage to Frozen targets. Imprisonment should now properly apply Spell Twisting. Oppressive Force now properly procs weapon enchantments. Ray of Enfeeblement: When two or more players cast this spell on the same target, the Damage Dealt debuff no longer incorrectly stacks. The damage over time effect still does stack. Ray of Enfeeblement (Spell Mastery): This version of the power no longer has two charges. Instead, its initial cast is doubly effective. Dev note: This is intended to make the Spell Twisting feat work more appropriately with Ray of Enfeeblement in the Spell Mastery slot. Ray of Enfeeblement: The debuff for this power now has a tooltip. Shatterstrike: Control-immune targets now take 33% weapon damage, down from 100%. Shatterstrike: The damage dealt by this power now scales with buffs / Power. Smolder and Rimefire Smolder should now properly be affected by Chilling Presence. Smolder and Rimefire Smolder now deal about 50% more damage. Steal Time now properly procs weapon enchantments. Storm Spell: This power's artifact bonus now correctly scales with Storm Spell ranks. Storm Spell no longer deals less damage when procced by certain powers. Storm Spell can now critically strike. Storm Spell's Artifact Off-hand bonus has been adjusted so that it properly has its own 5% chance to proc Storm Spell. Storm Spell: To balance out the above changes, this power's damage has been reduced by about 30%. Sudden Storm's Arc damage now properly scales with player power. Teleport (Shift): This power now properly requires 33% Stamina to cast, as it only consumes 33% Stamina when used. Teleport should now feel much more responsive with respect to animation, lockdown times, and rubber-banding. Transcended Master: This power's tooltip has been updated to match its current functionality.

Devoted Cleric Doubling Up Dev note: We'd like to reduce the potency of bringing two Devoted Clerics to a party, and instead open that spot in high-end groups to other classes that can provide offensive support. We also want both DC Paragon Paths to remain viable choices. As a result, we expect these changes to have low impact to individual Devoted Clerics, while opening up the meta for a wider variety of classes. The feat, Bear Your Sins, no longer stacks while multiple Clerics are present. The feat, Weapons of Light, no longer stacks while multiple Clerics are present. The strongest version of this feat will apply. The Damage Dealt buff from Hallowed Ground is now 35% at its highest rank, lowered from 40%. The Damage Dealt buff from Break the Spirit is now 21%, reduced from 30%. Exaltation no longer stacks when multiple clerics cast it on the same target. The Run Speed debuff applied by Forgemaster's Flame can no longer have more than 3 stacks even if multiple Clerics apply it. Anointed Holy Symbol: The base amount of Temp. HP granted by this power has been doubled. Anointed Holy Symbol: The rank-up bonus for this power is now 10%, reduced from 12%. Chains of Blazing Light: This power now immobilizes players for its full 3 second duration in PvP. Empowered stacks still extend this duration by 1 additional second in PvP. Flamestrike: This power no longer has an inner circle in its targeting indicator; the damage and effects previously dealt by that inner circle now applies to the full radius. (This is a buff.) Forgemaster's Flame: The tooltip for this Encounter power now correctly indicates the radius of its effect. Geas: The Divine version of this power no longer has a baked-in diminished duration when cast successively on the same target. The effect still respects diminishing returns in PvP. Geas: This power now uses a percentage of the target's maximum hit points to determine when its effect breaks, instead of the caster's weapon damage. Hammer of Fate now properly triggers weapon enhancements. Hammer of Fate no longer pops a message regarding power drain. Hastening Light: This class feature can no longer incorrectly proc while it isn't slotted. Healing Word: The Empowered bonus of this power now grants a flat 20% additional healing to both the initial heal and the Heal over Time (HoT). Previously, it granted 35% additional healing to only the initial heal. To balance out this change, the initial heal of Healing Word has been increased by 20% before Empowered stacks, and the healing done by the HoT has been reduced by 10% over its full duration. Healing Word: When the Empowered version of this power applies Gift of Faith, the potency of the effect now properly improves with the number of Empowered stacks. Prophecy of Doom should now properly have its cooldown reset when the target is killed. Prophecy of Doom should now properly have its cooldown reset only once when a target is killed. Prophecy of Doom should now properly grant Action Points (AP) when first cast. Prophecy of Doom should now properly not grant bonus AP when a target is not killed for its duration. Righteousness: An issue has been fixed where Righteousness would sometimes not be affected by certain healing powers. Soothing Light: This at-will power has been simplified to no longer heal for up to 20% more based on the target's missing hit points. To balance out this change, the power now heals for 15% more. Terrifying Insight: When buffed by Artifact Off-hands, this power no longer has a chance to briefly stack.

Steadfast Determination: The artifact off-hand bonus has been increased to 10%, up from 3%. Wicked Strike: The Artifact Off-hand bonus for this power should now correctly apply to the player.

Guardian Fighter Jagged Blades: This feat now consistently procs on all powers that target foes. Mark: This power can now properly be used while swinging with Weapon Master's Strike.

Boar Charge: The animation lockdown on this power has been shortened. Careful Attack: This power can now proc weapon enchantments. Cordon of Arrows: This power can now crit at long range. Cruel Recovery: This power's Artifact Off-hand bonus now only works if Cruel Recovery is slotted.

Rain of Arrows now more reliably hits targets on uneven terrain. Rain of Swords now fires based on the cursor position.

Creeping Death: Damage has been increased to 75% (up from 60%). Critical Promise: Damage has been reduced to 8/16/24/32/40% (down from 10/20/30/40/50%), but now scales with buffs / Power. Critical Promise: This effect no longer expires when the player leaves combat. Daughter's Promise: The damage dealt from this power now scales with power/buffs. Dreadtheft: This power has been updated. It now ticks twice per second, lasts up to 6 seconds, and its damage per tick has been significantly increased. Dreadtheft now procs weapon enchantments on every tick. Fiery Bolt: The Curse-Synergy of this power should now be based off the target it hits. Flames of Empowerment: This power now properly improves when buffed by Artifact Off-hand powers. Immolation Spirits should now correctly deal increased damage to targets affected by Warlock's Curse. Killing Curse: Damage has increased to 5/10/15/20/25% (up from 3/6/9/12/15%), and now scales with buffs / Power. Killing Curse: An issue where this feat was dealing less damage than intended has been addressed. Lesser Curse now keeps its tick timer when replaced. (Example: If it dealt damage 1.0 seconds ago, and a warlock re-applies it, it will deal damage 0.5 seconds from now instead of 1.5 seconds from now.) Lesser Curse: This power now properly ticks 4 times instead of 3 on a single cast. Murderous Flames: The damage dealt by this power is no longer doubly reduced by level differences between the player and enemy. Pillar of Power can now critically strike. Pillar of Power: This now grants 75% of its normal buff value to allies who stand in it. Power of the Nine Hells: This no longer increases Pillar of Power's buff value for allies. Soul Desecration: This effect now causes the warlock's next attack to summon a Soul Puppet every 10 seconds (reduced from 15 seconds).

Vampiric Embrace: When consuming a Curse, this power now properly provides Temporary HP. Wraith's Shadow should now correctly deal increased damage to targets affected by Warlock's Curse.

Dark Revelry: This buff can now be refreshed while active. Aura of Cruelty: Now also grants 10% Life Steal Severity. Aura of Despair: Now also causes enemies to take 5% increased damage.

Ghastly Commander: Damage has been increased to 3/6/9/12/15%. Ghastly Commander: Lifesteal Chance has been increased to 1/2/3/4/5% (up from 0.4/0.8/1.2/1.6/2.0%).

Trickster Rogue Duelist's Flurry can now trigger weapon enhancements with each hit against the target. Gloaming Cut: This power's tooltip has been updated to clarify its functionality. Functionality has not changed. Impact Shot now deals approximately 20% more damage. Impact Shot now calculates based on the correct amount of charges left; it had previously thought the player had fewer charges than they actually did. Oppressive Darkness: An issue has been fixed where the rank-up values were providing much more damage than intended. To compensate for this change, the base damage has been increased, and this power now scales with player stats. Path of the Blade can now proc the Lostmauth's Vengeance effect. Path of the Blade now procs weapon enchantments on the first hit only. Path of the Blade now deals an extra tick of damage. Path of the Blade now hits up to 5 targets, increased from 3. Razor Action now has a 30' radius at rank 1, and no longer increases by 5' per rank. Razor Action no longer deals Piercing damage. Razor Action now scales with buffs / Power.

The following adjustments and bugfixes have been made to the companion "Savage Allosaur." The allosaur will now use overbite, its primary melee attack, significantly more often.

Character Sheet - Stats

A number of adjustments have been made to the phrasing and descriptions of stats appearing on the character sheet with the goal of unifying how certain concepts are referred to across the game. All stats continue to work the same way, these changes are to assist in identifying things that behave the same. As an example, a buff that "reduced damage taken by 10%" and "+10% damage resistance" on your character sheet meant the same thing, so we have unified the phrasing.

Any excess over the starting limit of 24 will go into the Overflow Bag. Fashion gear may still be auctioned (if unbound), mailed, placed into the bank, etc.

Double-click actions now work for Overflow Bag items if they would work for drag-and-drop. Example: Placing the item in the first open Bank slot.
