GAMEPLAY UPDATES

Monsters

Crowd Control Sources

We have made various changes to Monster Abilities and Elite Affixes that apply Crowd Control effects, including

• Cold Enchanted Elites that attack in quick succession (Ex: Ghost Archers and Snake Brutes) will no longer proc the Cold Enchanted on every hit.
• Chilling Wind will spawn overlapping walls less often.
• The Stun ability from the Cannibal Gorger can now be more easily avoided.
• Increased the cooldown on the Cold Goatman Ice Pillars.
• Reduced the amount of Chill applied from the Cold Spider attack.
• Reduced the Stun duration from the Nangari Snake Eyes from 1.5 to 1.25 seconds.
• Other changes that reduce how often the player can be targeted by Crowd Control

Developer’s Note: These changes are aimed at the player having less time being Crowd Controlled and receiving more recovery time after being Crowd Controlled, especially at higher World Tiers.

General

• The death explosion from Fire Enchanted monsters releases 1 less wave and deals 20% less damage.
• The damage from the Bloated Corpsefiend’s charge attack has been reduced by 14%.

Miscellaneous

• Affixes on items will now sort consistently.

Developer’s Note: We’re adjusting how Affixes are displayed on item tooltips in Season of Blood. This change will lay the foundation for our ongoing work of making random Affixes easier to compare.

• The Seasonal and My Class filters in the Codex of Power menu now remember the setting previously selected by the player.
• Navigating the Glyph Upgrade menu on controller will now feel more natural.
• Achievements, Trophies, and Challenges with shared unlock criteria across platforms now transfer via cross-platform progression.
