Decrypted by simple reverse Macarov Chain text generator.

Bosses that had a reduced effect of curses on them now have a multiplier rather than a reduction. (CONFIRMED)

Earthquake aftershock damage has been nerfed ( reduced by XX %)

Poison no longer double-dips (ONLY increased dmg/chaos/poison/dot double dips; RIP dmg type like aoe, trap etc)

projectiles no longer colide with player created something (looks like Frostwall nerf)

Each additional projectile (arrow) deals 20%-35% reduced damage (global nerft to Reach ?)

Immortal Call no longer grants complete immunity to physical damage. Immunity reduced to 40% physical damage reduction.

Some uniques have been rebalanced (like Vis Mortis, Widowmaker, Frostbreath, Terminus Est)

Introduced new challenges with reward mtxes

Essence league

Map system has been improved, Atlas of Worlds has been introduced to the game.

Fixed client crash related to Infected Beast quest

something about improvements to particle effects, which double frame rates

Cast on Critical strike proc chance has been reduced, skills supported by this gem deal 20-30% reduced damage.

Zana gives first Atlas of Worlds

"Mercy Mission" was changed so that you can rescue Navali O-o
... work in progress

Some assumptions because notes might confuse a bit (at least how i read them):
removing poison double dipping would mean that it can only scale with "increased damage/chaos damage/poison damage/ dmg over time
Each additional projectile should be read as "Each additional arrow" so GMP would not suffer double penalty.
as to "projectiles no longer colide" this response might light up the topic a bit

That's all well and good, but what I really want to know is what is going on with Dominus' Chilling Bond totems :)

oh gawd if this is true.

goodbye combo for 100% immunity.

goodbye projectile damage double dip. So..practically all my pathfinder jewels, all the projectile damage nodes from the tree that people use to double dip, drillneck, and rip poison totem/trap/mine builds.

goodbye earthquake.

goodbye KB/LA + FW interaction?

goodbye CoC meta? nah, it'll still work, only changes to the single target killing ability will noticed.

Hello self-cast discharge meta since that is one of the few strong/ extremely fast clearing things left untouched, inb4 that is nerfed too.

Yeah it's for arrows only afaik

I wonder, assuming these are correct, how the projectile reduction per arrow interacts with corrupted +1 arrow quivers and the totem jewel that grants additional projectiles.

The quivers specifically state +1 additional arrow, right?

Or maybe it's just a piece of the info and will refer directly to reach only.

Tl;Dr where them patch notes at.

Peace,

-Boem-

Just wanna say these weren't decrypted in this method. The guy made assumptions based on phrases he saw.

The patch notes were GENERATED via the Macarov Chain text.

Again, these are just some guy on reddit's assumptions based upon what an algorithm spit out. No matter how close to true they seem.

Darn Reach trying to affect Tornado Shot
