Changes Direct link to this section
- Glaive Tempest was redesigned; it's no longer a button you press. Instead, if the last slash of BD hits 3 or more enemies it consumes more Fury and drops a Glaive Tempest.
- Essence Break was redesigned - it's no longer a damage amp on BD and CS. Instead, it causes BD/CS to deal a flat amount of additional chaos damage. Because it's no longer a % increase, it's no longer necessary to use in demon form.
- Felblade now only generates 15 Fury instead of 40 and can no longer reset.
- Blur now reduces more damage taken but no longer increases dodge chance
- Desperate Instincts now increases the DR of Blur and reduces all damage taken below 35% health
- Demon Blades is now default and generates more Fury
- Eye Beam is now a 30 second CD instead of 40.
- Cycle of Hatred was also changed as a result, it now reduces EB by 2.5 seconds per stack, still ending at a 20 second CD.
- A Fire Inside now reduces IA CD by a flat amount instead of a random chance to refund the cooldown.
- Collective Anguish, Demonic, and The Hunt are in the spec tree.
- Thrill of the Fight now increases the damage of the next Reaver's Glaive and increases haste, rather than increasing all damage and attack speed.
- Fury of the Aldrachi now deals reduced damage after 8 targets.
- Student of Suffering is applied on Eye Beam instead of Sigil of Flame.
- Demonsurge deals Chaos damage instead of Fire and will always empower CS and BD even if Meta was already active. This means we no longer need to hold our Eye Beam until Meta drops.
- Burning Blades now includes First Blood in BD's damage
