Patch NotesEdit
- Veil of Blades: This ability can now critical strike.
- Reduced the duration of this ability to 12 seconds.
- This ability will no longer provide an additional damage reduction for the caster.
- Hidden Refresh (synergy): This will now provide healing to allies, and will only be offered to allies under 50% health.
- Bolstering Darkness: This ability doubles the effectiveness of the Major Protection buff on yourself.
- Dark Resurgence (synergy): This synergy, offered by Bolstering Darkness, will provide more healing for the ally that activates it.
- Bolstering Darkness: Fixed an issue where the caster was only receiving a 30% damage reduction instead of the full 60%.
- Bolstering Darkness: Increased the healing from the Hidden Refresh synergy from this morph by 20%.
- Bolstering Darkness: This morph now causes the Major Protection buff to remain on you even after leaving the area. The buff will persist for the duration of the ability.
- Veil of Blades: Fixed an issue where this ability was not getting stronger as the ability ranked up. Total damage at Rank IV will be increased by 6.6%.
- Fixed an issue where the synergy granted from this ability and its morphs could only be activated when at a certain health threshold, which was not previously communicated. It can now be activated any time when you meet the listed requirements and are not on cooldown.
- Hidden Refresh's heal now ticks once every second, rather than half second, and adjusted the total healing to remain roughly the same.
- While this synergy is active, it now displays what it does when hovered over in your Active Effects tab.
