Curses

In a few hours, we will deploy a hotfix that undoes the curse changes in yesterday's hotfix. It will introduce a cap of 75% to the action speed reduction caused by Temporal Chains and to the effects of Enfeeble.

We shouldn't have made such a large balance modification within a challenge league. This new cap solves the exploit case without affecting most other players.

We want people to understand that this change wasn't made as a knee-jerk reaction, it was a balance change that was discussed during the development of 2.1.0 and was omitted from the initial deploy. There are numerous ways that the current curse system is holding us back, so we will review it extensively for 2.2.0 next year.

Edit: this is now deployed.

Typical knee jerk reaction to the knee jerk reaction of those responding to your knee jerk reaction!
