Dev Note:
Worked more on trying to improve FPS, which took a lot of my time yesterday.
Fixed up frostbite and buffed it give it’s lackluster performance since last patch. Combined with the new meta-effects it should make for a viable build now.
Hopefully ignite also feels better now that enemies are less likely to die before the first proc even triggers.
A fun thing I’ve noticed is that DOTs do not care about crits, but they also don’t care about blunders, so that might be an interesting angle for attack speed builds, will have to see.
Speaking of attack speed, I’m aware it’s probably quite underpowered right now, I’d rather start off weak and adjust to make it stronger, rather than have to nerf it, which feels bad.
See ya,
