Based on the feedback the team has received thus far, several adjustments have been made. You can find these below.

Balance


Shadow Warrior
- Festering Arrow: No longer able to cast on the move.

- Grim Slash ...

SW has been completely destroyed.

While the weakening of AoE is understandable, the changes to SW are so terrible that you really need to read them carefully. Has any other class been weakened this thoroughly? The developers' adjustments focused solely on damage reduction, transforming it into a ...

I feel ambivalent on this huge patch, I haven't read everything yet but a few things definitely feels off.

First SW the class i was looking forward to the most, Skirmish was gutted, lol. It might have been a little overtuned in AOE but you went too far with this one, way too far.

I don't hate shield WP lol, it was amazing before, but now? Look at that, not even in PvE people are taking it.

No

That way : More useful dps and ...
