Path of Exile: Betrayal Patch Notes

boo no melee buffs :*(

You nerfed Zerphi's and Indigon in such a wrong way. Now Indigon is missing its actual use cases (but will still see limited niche use), and Zerphi's is factually worthless now.

Zerphi's was actually being used correctly on Scold's and other CWDT builds. Now those builds (any CWDT build that isn't Jugg/EoI) simply won't exist. Yay, you did it. Of all the ways you could have gone about it....

no bv or gc changes despite statstick removal, glad to see you dont play the game.

Stat sticks values were halved. Glad to see you don't read the text

Stat sticks were halved for spells. They were completely removed for melee while simultaneously killing fake dual wielding as a whole. This changes how a lot of melee builds work and makes quite a few less viable.

all i can say is wow.

Soo.. 6link CoC with 2x Poet´s Pen?

So molten strike got a buff am i correct?

Quill Rain now causes you to deal 40% less Damage (as opposed to Weapon Damage). This affects all versions of the item.

Rest in peace, brother

Please keep 2 wildfire, you can nerf the lab enchant projectile to oblivion if you'd like

Zerphi's Last Breath is not something to be "used correctly" in a build. It's a flask that gives you a negotiable amount of life regeneration for an open flask slot. It's extremely generic and isn't something perfect for a specific build. Before people figured out it's busted as shit with Indigon, it only fit a niche. This doesn't kill scold's/CWDT builds because those builds didn't run it in order to be viable. As a matter of fact, these builds didn't even run it because you barely get anything out of it.

As for the Indigon nerf, it was caught in the crossfire. Unfortunate.

Current math is showing that they technically buffed Molten Strike's DPS.
