Version history[ | ]

Version Changes
3.11.0
  • (Not in patch note) All mention of the "shocking ground" in-game has changed to use "shocked ground".
3.10.1f
  • Clarified [sicSīc erat scriptum (Latin: “Thus it was written”) – This quote is reproduced faithfully from its source with the preceding errors.] the magnitudes of Shocking Ground and Chilled Ground on their relevant map modifiers.[a] This is solely a description change.
3.10.0
  • Improved the appearance of shocked, burning, caustic and chilled ground.
3.9.0
  • The default Shock magnitude for effects that apply Shock without damage (such as Skitterbots) is now 15% (from 20%).[b]
3.1.0
  • Map mods have also been rebalanced, and every mod now provides increased item rarity, increased item quantity, and increased monster pack size, though the magnitudes are dependent on the difficulty of the mod.
3.0.0
  • Shocking ground increases damage taken by a fixed amount of 20%.
2.1.0
  • We've made performance improvements to ground effects. They now use considerably less bandwidth and server resources. Disconnections or lockstep stuttering near ground effects should occur far less often.
1.2.0
  • Shock and Shocked Ground have been changed so that they cause 50% increased damage taken (rather than 30%) but no longer stack. They do not stack with each other either. "Cannot Be Shocked" now prevents players being affected by either Shocked Ground or Shock itself.
0.9.9
  • Added support for ground fire and other environmental hazards.

Notes[ | ]

  1. The patch changed the description of Shocking Ground related map mod, as well as mod of Delve and Synthesis area. However, legacy map mods were unchanged. Moreover, contradict to the patch note, all the description of the Chilled Ground related area mod are not changed.
  2. It was not stated in the patch note, but in 3.9, the map modifier has changed to use stat id "map_ground_lightning_base_magnitude" for the magnitude of Shocked Ground, which is 20/35/50% and NOT using the default value of shock.
