Blizzard
With a hotfix that is now live on all realms, we've adjusted the damage done by several Corruption Effects:
- Damage dealt by 无尽之星, 扭曲的附肢, and 龟裂创伤 is now based on the item level of the Corrupted item. This previously scaled dynamically with Attack Power and Spell Power.
- 虚空鞭笞 damage is now based on the item level of the Corrupted Item, and now procs less often than before.
Previously the damage dealt by these powers was modified by Attack Power and Spell Power, which meant that certain specialization abilities or random bonuses could cause drastic swings in their effectiveness.
无尽之星 in particular was too strong against single targets as a result of this and other factors.This change also adjusts
无尽之星 base damage accordingly, as the scaling method was one of the primary factors behind some of the extreme outliers we saw in our logs and from player feedback. Our goal with this change and other adjustments to Corruption powers is to improve parity in the effectiveness per point of Corruption of the different bonuses available on Visions of N'Zoth items.
