Annihilus: SotR October 1st Changelog:
Misc Changes:
• There is no longer diminishing returns on item level and rolling affixes. This seems to be a thing even in vanilla d2 and is not documented properly anyhwere. This was causing exceptional / elite item bases to have a much lower chance of rolling higher tier affixes than a normal base.
• Cows now have proper loot tables.
• Further modified loot tables to adjust potion drops.
• The shift left-click feature with continuously using Rift Energies has been cleaned up and should no longer freeze up / crash.
• Fixed an issue causing Shock Wave to freeze the server.
• Fixed an issue preventing skills from being casted in town.
• Fixed a clientside issue where +% Damage did not increase your charsheet damage beyond 100%. This was just a tooltip error, the actual damage was still increasing.
• Fixed an issue causing "deadspots" in certain areas of the screen, causing clicks in those locations to not do anything.
• Fixed an issue causing Mysterious Rift Energies to not have a chance to spawn a unique item on certain bases.
• Fixed an issue causing certain Rift Energies to remove the Ethereal bonus (again).
Skill Changes:
• Warcries such as Battle Command now use the skill level from the actual caster as it should, rather than the person affected by it. For example, Battle Command will now properly give +5 to All Skills to all party members when maxed out, not just the Barbarian. This could also fix a few other strange interaction with Warcries.
• Slightly increased Barrage Arrow's Damage per Level at Level 20+, and Barrage Arrow now benefits from Missile Piercing.
• Battlemage Skills can now be used during Shapeshifts.
• Teeth's Missile Speed / Range has been increased.
• Poison Maelstrom's secondary Missiles now always pierce through enemies, and the initial Missile can now benefit from Missile Piercing.
• Hydras / Traps / Blade Sentinel now copy all stats from their caster, they were previously ignoring auras / passives.
• All pets now copy stats granted to you from passives, they were previously being ignored. (Valkyrie, Doppelganger, and Shadow Master are unchanged. They copy your passives for themselves already.)
• Valkyrie's Static Strike has been buffed to match the buffs to Static Strike in the previous patch.
Item Changes:
• Eaglehorn no longer has "-20% Decreased Damage". You will have to use a Temporal Rift Energy to reroll this item if you already have it.
• Gladiator's Flask no longer increases damage taken. You will have to use a Temporal Rift Energy to reroll this item if you already have it.
• Stormspire, Windhammer, and Steel Pillar Uniques have been enabled and can now drop.
