Patch history
3 changesFixed a bug where the Melting Maelstrom Unique Ultimate Mana Flask was unable to hit enemies.
Melting Maelstrom now has "Every 3 Seconds During Effect, Deal 100% of Mana Spent in Those Seconds as Chaos Damage to Enemies within 3 Metres" (previously 50% of Mana).
The Melting Maelstrom Unique Flask no longer has the property of "Recover all Mana when Used". This change does not affect existing versions of the item.
