Ok, it's been up for 5 minutes. Someone tell me how I should feel.

Edit:

Many Skills have had their base damage and/or damage growth per level rebalanced. Most of these changes are not specifically mentioned below as the changes are too widespread.

Without knowing what these numbers are we really can't tell what's good until they release the 20/20 gem info.

Massive nerfs across the board 😅

Surely they've buffed underperforming skills just as much as they've nerfed, right?

Overperforming skills got massive nerfs. Underperformers left unchanged.

Well that's just not true. Loads of underperformers got buffed.

Yeah but like, Bonestorm got buffed buffed lol

Pretty brutal changes overall though. Chaos just got better in comparison since enemies have less chaos resistance than elemental resistance typically.

The only chaos spell that did any single target damage whatsoever, Hexblast, has been functionally removed from the game. I don't see how that can be considered to be a buff.
