Version history

Version Changes
3.10.0
  • Scorch, Brittle and Sap now all have a base duration of 4 seconds (from 2).
3.9.0
  • We've added an Ailment Threshold to monsters. In the great majority of cases, the Ailment Threshold matches the monster's Maximum Life. It primarily differs for especially high-life monsters (such as The Shaper), where the threshold is reduced to allow ailments to be applied with hits that wouldn't ordinarily reach the required Life thresholds.
  • The alternate ailments Sap, Scorch and Brittle have a slightly different calculation as they have lower caps on their magnitudes.
3.5.0
  • Introduced to the game.
