CLASSES

General

Pets
Philosophy
We want pet survivability to be roughly equivalent to the player that summoned them
Many monster attacks that are intended to be avoided by players, and weren't already dealing reduced damage to pets, now deal significantly less damage to pets

Bug Fixes

ITEMS
Class-Specific Legendary Items

Wizard
Firebird's Finery
The infinite DoT debuff should now have a unique effect when it is applied

Legendary Gems
Boon of the Hoarder
The number of Gold piles that explode from enemies on kill has been reduced
To compensate, the amount of Gold in each pile has been increased
The total amount of Gold dropped remains unchanged, but this will noticeably reduce screen clutter

ADVENTURE MODE
Rift Guardians and Greater Rift Guardians now drop more crafting materials
Infernal Machine
In multiplayer games, the Key of Bones, Key of Gluttony, and Key of War will now be considered group drops
This means that, instead of players having an individual chance to find a key, that chance is now exists at the party level
If a Key of Bones, a Key of Gluttony, or a Key of War drops, it will drop for everyone in the party at the time

Greater Rifts
The Rift of Trials has received numerous adjustments in an effort to more accurately assess an appropriate level of Greater Rift
Large Aqueduct and Sewer maps will no longer show up in Greater Rifts

Kadala

Philosophy
While Kadala is doing a great job of giving players more control over finding specific items, we felt the current experience was a bit cumbersome and inconvenient
As a result, we're working to reduce the frequency at which players need to run between Kadala and the Blacksmith to salvage unwanted items
The cost to purchase items from Kadala has been greatly increased
The chance for Kadala to drop a Legendary item has also been greatly increased

Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue that could cause Greater Rift Guardians to sometimes drop multiple of the same Legendary Gem

CRAFTING
Mystic

Enchanting
Philosophy
We want players to be able to more reliably add sockets to their jewelry in order to enjoy Legendary Gems
We still have long term plans to provide more outlets for excess gems and more ways to farm gems that a player needs; however, since those changes are further down the road, we wanted to improve the quality of life of Seasonal and Non-Seasonal players alike by making it easier to add a socket to your Rings and Amulets
The cost to enchant jewelry has been reduced from a Flawless Imperial gem to an Imperial gem
Return to Top

MONSTERS
The Electrified monster affix now has a short internal cooldown
The damage of The Butcher's Fan of Spears attack has been slightly reduced
The range of the Charging Beasts' Charge attack has been slightly reduced
Plague Nest Bats have had their health globe drop rate significantly decreased
Nephalem Rifts and Greater Rifts
Maggot Broods no longer start out burrowed in Nephalem Rifts and Greater Rifts
Sand Dwellers no longer start out burrowed in Nephalem Rifts and Greater Rifts
Demonic Hellflyers now run away less frequently and no longer ambush players from the air in Nephalem Rifts and Greater Rifts
Ghosts now run away less frequently and no longer fly through walls in Nephalem Rifts and Greater Rifts
Rockworms can no longer spawn in Nephalem Rifts and Greater Rifts

TL;DR version:

Kadala became more evil.

Kadala charging GST 500%

Fucuk Kadala! until now havent drop Marauder set for me

At least I got 2 set items and 2 legs from the spending of about 450 BS.

2 OP leg never dropped to me.....yet:

DH: T&T gloves

Crusader: Darklight

i seldom get good items from kadala ... so no fucuk given to her

Erm... she does gave me some set piece when I need it the most. (Akkhan's breastplate, Jade's Shoulder and gloves, Murauder's shoulder)

So for me no choice have to belanja her fucuk~

obviously she is pilih kasih on u one

well, i got Mirrorball +2 Magic Missiles from her.

25 BS per item.. so expensive.. roll 1 leg also nt the better stats..

i prefer previous kadala.. 50 BS i roll 1 Pouldron of Ahkan and Breastplate of Ahkan.. with 3 socket in the breastplate and near perfect stats.. maybe just luck, idk.. but 25BS too much la..

One of the undocumented changes are trials are significantly harder past lvl 50 key, as they want to enforce the soft cap of gems and grift. Probably doesnt effect us mortals, but for the godly players I think they took a hit.

Blizzard should just be upfront about these changes instead of stealth nerfing them.

fucuk kadala! where is my furnance and fire blue bird?

Lizard=politician

More undocumented change.

Goblin that will spawn portal will have the portal already animated. Meaning that you will know beforehand so you dont have to be disappointed every time you kill a goblin.

nice.. still need that gold gems in US, never got lucky with goblin vault yet.

got my full jade set just from Kadala

and i like the party drops for the warden key. Really good now.

Great patch overall.

My record 500 shards = 6 legend.

Pretty nice buff I would say.





...but material farming just got harder

Just found out that health potion can now stack to 1000.
