Version history[ | ]

Version Changes
3.0.0
  • All unique items that previously granted Poison on Hit now only grant a 60% chance to Poison on Hit.
2.6.0
  • Base type implicit mod changed to +20 Life gained for each Enemy hit by Attacks (previously 2% of Physical Attack Damage Leeched as Life).
  • Base type damage increased to 12-46 (up from 9-37).
2.2.0
  • All sources of increased Critical Strike Multiplier have been changed to additional Critical Strike Multiplier. This change brings the functionality in line with how most players think it works.
  • Because of this, all items, passives and some skills/support gems that used to have increased Critical Strike Multiplier are now 33% less effective on players, despite having the same value. A number of these have been adjusted in value to maintain similar effectiveness.
  • Divine Orbs are required to update the following to their new values: All craftable Jewel mods which grant Critical Strike Multiplier, Facebreaker, Marylene's Fallacy, Fragment of Eternity (the Descent: Champions Unique), Bino's Kitchen Knife, Romira's Banquet, Shadows and Dust, Ungil's Harmony, Eclipse Solaris, Death's Harp, Mortem Morsu, The Goddess Scorned and Abyssus.

  • Fixed a bug where the poison on hit property of the unique item Mortem Morsu was being applied on spells when equipped in your off-hand weapon slot.
