Patch history

5 changes
0.1.0d
Direct change

Updated the description on Hexblast to clarify that it only detonates a single Curse per Enemy in its radius.

0.4.0
Direct change

Hexblast: Now has Maximum 10 Explosions per cast (previously 3).

0.3.0
Direct change

Hexblast: Quality now provides 0-10% more Damage per 1 second of remaining Duration of removed Curse, instead of 0-20% more Chaos Damage.

0.2.0
Direct change

Hexblast can now only detonate Curses for which at least 50% of the duration has expired. This means it can never explode Curses that have an infinite duration. Curse orbs will be visually different when 50% of the Curse duration has expired if you have Hexblast equipped. The Explosion radius of Hexblast has been increased to 2 metres (previously 1.6 metres), and it now has a maximum of 3 Explosions per cast (previously 9).

0.2.0
Direct change

Hexblast's damage has been lowered by roughly 17% at all Gem levels. The Explosion radius has also been reduced to 1.2 metres (previously 1.6).
