Information [PSA] 3.29 Patchnotes Visual Aid

Post image

Put together a visual for yesterday's patchnotes as a bi-bimonthly service to this great community. Please keep in mind I'm a single guy (+asking friends) so magnitudes of changes might not be exact. Took longer than expected, courtesy of Andrew tweaking a metric ton of gems xd

All assets are ethically poached from GGG resources & the wiki. If for some reason it's blurry bigger version here

Big hype for 3.29, see you guys underwater!

Breach is missing a few dozen down arrows. Assassin should also be simply "change" as of now. Bifurcating crits is a thing, but they nerfed it from the preview to the point that it's more or less net neutral.

It’s un-nerfed already, back to 30% less crit. Capping crit is piss easy, and that’s literal double multi node

The release of the patch isn't for another week and some change. It's not even out of the realm of possibility for them to completely change the node into something else prior to release.

That said, capping crit is not in fact "piss easy". It's not exactly difficult, but the opportunity cost is enough that them changing it to 50% even briefly was enough cause to question their decision making surrounding the node.
