Shrapnel Shot / Galvanic Arrow

*Entire posted edited again for anyone who wanders in here wondering*

GALVANIC ARROW DOES NOT SHOTGUN - It felt clunky, apparently.

THE THRESHOLD JEWEL APPEARS TO BE GONE - Bad news, but not the end, because...

GALVANIC ARROW, WHEN SUPPORTED BY BARRAGE, REPEATS THE CONE FOR EACH ARROW IN THE SEQUENCE! - The skill now has built in +2 arrows. This gives it a significant built-in bonus, and is probably intended to be played this way.

good question.

"

Overall, the skill, is now focused on being a close range skill at lower levels, and a powerful and sizeable damage area at higher levels. Adjustments to its damage mean that the Collateral Damage threshold jewel should no longer be required, so we're stopping the jewel dropping. Existing copies will deal 50% increased damage with the cone, rather than giving a 50% chance for double damage.

quoted change for the gem, but ya nothing mentioned in the patch notes. maybe it will still drop but will just have the change? not sure

Altered main post; please can we get a GGG reply on this? I need to start working on a new build if the changes are as bad as they seem.
