Version history

Version Changes
0.2.0e
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.
  • Eye of Winter now gains 75% of damage as damage of the corresponding Type when passing over an Elemental Ground Effect (previously 50%). The Skill also no longer incorrectly states the Projectile applies the passed over-ground effect to nearby Enemies.
  • Fixed a bug where Eye of Winter passing over multiple ailment ground effects only got the extra damage bonus from the most recent one, rather than all of them.
0.1.0
  • Introduced to the game.
