Zerphi's Last Breath now grants a buff when you use a skill during the flask's effect. This buff recovers 450-600% of the skill's mana cost as life per second. This buff (and the healing) is removed when you are hit. This affects all versions of the item.
Blood of Corruption's Gluttony of Elements skill now prevents those affected by the aura from gaining Vaal souls. This affects all versions of the item.

Welp, those problems are over and done with!

Molten Strike got buffed in terms of the actual skill (30% less proj damage at lvl20 instead of 40% less proj damage), but the wildfire nerf (1 only) and helm enchant (1/2 instead of 2/3 extra proj) reduce the number of balls. So, it's a nerf but not as bad as it could've been. People are still going to use the fuck out of it. And no, no one used stat sticks for Molten Strike as it wasn't main hand only.

Some of the unique changes look pretty good. Carcass Jack is back! Gruthkul's Pelt also looks VERY nice with these new 2hander impale builds that will be coming out.

RIP Molten Strike
Click to expand...
Current Molten Strike is 147%. So you get 1 melee at 147% and then X projectiles at 147% * 0.6.

New Molten Strike is 161%(9.5% buff). 1 wildfire jewel(2 less projectiles) and helm enchants nerfe(1 less projectile). So you get 1 melee at 161% and then X - 3 projectiles at 161% * 0.7.

At 2 wildfires, 1 helm enchant, 1 dying sun, and let's say a Grelwood Shank, X = 14. Projectiles, generally hit 50% of Shaper-sized targets. The melee hit generally comes out to the same damage as the projectiles.

Old Molten Strike = 147% + 147% * 0.6 * 0.5 * 14 = 764.4%
New Molten Strike = 161% + 161% * 0.7 * 0.5 * 11 = 780.85%

Of course these numbers will vary for different builds. The only part that was nerfed for sure was the LoH.

Real shame you can't do Mjolner + CoC. Well, I mean, you can...but you shouldn't. Probably the reason why Cospri's didn't get the same treatment.

I want to do something with Mjolner as well, but can't think of a good main skill setup. Seems like a waste if you're not triggering while you're triggering.

Oh sorry, misread your post.

  • Completing a map as part of a Zana mission now counts towards your Atlas' Map Completion and any associated challenges or achievements.
