Diablo

Yesterday I played my first nightmare dungeon with the "Resource Burn" affix and thought the whole time: Are they serious?

The affix said only distant enemies burn resource, but in reality every hit even in melee removed all my spirit as druid. I only managed to finish that dungeon due to using a cooldown heavy build.

Good thing they are going to remove this crap. It looks like a great patch overall.

One thing missing: They should really reduce the mouse distance to the horse for max speed. Riding downwards sucks.

I'm very hype for all the changes to Chain Lightning sorc! We might finally be rolling with the big boys now. We've got:

• 2 more jumps on the boingboing aspect, which gives aoe damage, single target damage, mana regen, and crit chance/bonus damage from skill mods
• mana aspect now grants you mana from everything struck, not just yourself, and will feel the way it does fighting a boss with it currently
• tons more Dr from glyphs
• Vyr's mastery damage buff is now 15% instead of 10%, and has an aspect to make you take reduced damage from close enemies
• Temerity rework is a great choice for sorcs now
• Omnipower's mana consumption will now count towards things that care about mana consumption, like the passive that gives you DR per 100 mana used, or chain lightning enchantment
• Omnipower will also only consume the mana needed to add extra projectiles, it won't totally drain your mana pool, making the build much smoother to play

Overall, I think these changes will free up ~~8-11~~ 4-7 talent points for the standard CL build that uses CE to regenerate mana, plus probably some paragon board gains if we can drop the mana gain on stun legendary node

In addition, it looks like there are VRAM management changes as well: https://www.wowhead.com/diablo-4/news/patch-1-1-1-includes-vram-fix-blizzard-confirms-334424

These notes look good to me and a step in the right direction. Enchanting gear should be better at not getting the same rolls constantly and the chargers damaging you after they die should be fixed, quite a few times I've died because of that which caused dungeon fails.

Thanks for posting the link! Changes look good, it seems people that were complaining about the barber in overworld/group settings will be happy.
