Item	Description

Version history

Version	Changes
0.2.0	Many Skills have had their base damage and/or damage growth per level rebalanced. Most of these changes are not specifically mentioned below as the changes are too widespread. Bonestorm's shrapnel has become a general mechanic called Impale, similar to the Impale mechanic from Path of Exile 1. Hits that Impale an enemy cause the next attack hit against that enemy to gain added physical damage equal to 30% of the physical damage dealt by the impaling hit. Bonestorm now Impales on hit instead of applying a specialised debuff, and has 200% more Impale magnitude.
0.1.0e	Increased the damage growth per level on Unearth (non-Minion component), Bonestorm, Bone Cage, Bone Blast (Wand Skill) and Power Siphon (Wand Skill). Results in approximately 50% more damage at Gem Level 25.
0.1.0d	Updated the suggested Supports for Bonestorm.
0.1.0	Introduced to the game.
