This converts the charge system to a "stage" system where your attacks are based on the amount of charges you have or the "stage" you are on and cycle from stages 1-3 and repeat. Finishers are no longer required however if you use one you will cast every stage of every charge you have generated. Charges are also universal so you can combo from stage 1 fists of fire into stage 2 blades of ice and finish with stage 3 cobra strike then begin a new combo string Cobra Strike has been reworked to cast 'poison teeth' on stage 1, dual leech on stage 2, and a poison cloud on stage 3 (these attacks carry Venom damage and poison damage from gear) Dragon Tail and Dragon Talon now properly synergise Shadow Disciplines Claw and Dagger Mastery increased from 4% to 8% Psychic Hammer synergies reduced from 18% to 15% Mind Blast starting AoE reduced by 1 and max AoE by 1 Venom now lasts 5 minutes at all levels Cloak of shadows now reduces defense by 1% per level instead of 3% Traps Traps now gain +% and -% elemental bonuses this includes facets Blade Sentinel synergies increased from 6% to 10% Blade Sentinel ¼ weapon damage increased to ¾ Wake of Fires Level 8-16 scaling increased from 5 per level to 6 per level Wake of Fires Level 16-22 scaling increased from 15 per level to 16 per level Wake of Fires Level 22-28 scaling reduced from 27 per level to 24 per level Wake of Fires Level 28+ scaling reduced from 39 per level to 32 per level Wake of Fire synergies reduced from 10% to 8% Wake of Fire now properly shoots 8 times instead of 5 Wake of Fire damage tooltip now shows in the character screen Fixed the tooltip on Inferno Sentry Death Sentry Level 22+ scaling has been reduced Death Sentry synergies reduced from 6% to 4% Blade Fury weapon damage reduced from 100% to ¾ Blade Fury flat physical damage reduced Lightning Sentry synergies increased from 10% to 12% Lightning Sentry now shoots 12 times instead of 10 Chain Lightning Sentry synergies increased from 12% to 15% Chain Lightning Sentry now gains 1 extra damage per level (roughly an 8% damage increase overall) Chain Lightning Sentry starting max damage is now 40 instead of 35 Chain lightning Sentry Level 22+ scaling has been increased from 16 to 18 Chain lightning Sentry Level 28+ scaling increased from 20 to 22 Blade Shields increased weapon damage from ¼ to ¾ Blade Shield now lasts 5 minutes at all levels Barbarian Warcries Howl range AoE scaling reduced by 50% Howl now lasts 3 seconds at all levels Battle Cry missile speed increased by 25% Battle Cry AoE increased by roughly 15% Grim Ward bonus damage per level increased from 4% to 5% Grim Ward starting bonus damage increased from 28% to 35% Grim Ward starting radius increased by 33.3% Grim Ward can now be used on Skeleton corpses Battle Command now grants +20% Enhanced Damage instead of +10% at Level 1 Battle Command now grants +3% damage per level instead of +2% Combat Masteries Polearm and Spear mastery now starts at +30% Enhanced Damage instead of +25% Polearm and Spear mastery now gains 6% damage per level instead of 5% Combat Skills Bash now gains 12% damage per level instead of 10% Frenzy synergies increased from 4% to 6% Double Throw now properly displays its damage in the character screen Leap Attack synergies increased from 6% to 10% Whirlwind has been reworked to now have melee splash and to use proc effects but now attacks at 5 frames fixed instead of 4 and now attacks one target per attack instead of two (it is now much stronger for AoE clearing than previous ladders) Whirlwind’s Enhanced Damage bonus at Level 1 reduced from +50% to +25% Whirlwind’s Enhanced Damage bonus per level has reduced from +6% to +4% Druid Elemental Skills Firestorm synergies increased from 23% to 25% Molten Boulder synergies increased from 10% to 12% Fissure synergies increased from 6% to 8% Twister synergies increased from 15% to 20% Volcano synergies increased from 8% to 10% Tornado synergies increased from 11% to 14% Gust now chills instead of stuns Shape Shifting Skills Base health for Lycanthropy increased from 10% to 15% and life per level from Lycanthropy increased from 2% to 3% Hunger now gains 2% movement speed per level instead of 1% Hunger now gains 2 seconds per level instead of 1 Hunger can now be used on skeleton corpses Rabies now has Lycanthropy as an additional synergy at 17% Rabies Feral Rage synergy reduced from 22% to 17% Rabies Poison Creeper synergy reduced from 22% to 17% Shockwave synergies increased from 14% to 16% Fury Enhanced Damage per level reduced from +20% per level to +15% Fury now has Feral Rage as a synergy at +10% Enhanced Damage per level Summoning Skills Poison Creeper damage scaling rebalanced and increased Poison Creeper synergies increased from 8% to 20% Poison Creeper now counts as a Poison skill Oak Sage regen scaling reworked and increased Necromancer Summoning Skills Raise Skeleton Warrior’s Enhanced Damage per level increased from +7% to +10% Raise Skeleton Warrior’s synergies increased from 8% to 10% Raise Skeleton Warrior now counts as a Magic skill Skeletal Mage synergies increased from 8% to 12% Raise Skeleton Mage now counts as a Magic skill Summon Clay Golem now counts a a Magic skill Blood Warp now recovers the lost health over 3 seconds.
