Just for me main difficulty is extremely low fps and freezes in battles(rtx 3080ti+i9 lol) and no word about to fix it

Get Gud.

[drakk]

that seems very good

[FIBERO]

Most of this are for endgame
As I am not interested in endgame, Ithink theses changes are of no interest for I
Nothing about gear, loot and drop which are very little, very, very for example
Bot we will see ............

[fx!]

The info we got so far is incomplete, I'd rather wait for actual patch notes from GGG.

My joy is immeasurable and my day is made.

Cultist Archers dodged the nerf bat for now I guess tho. And Undertakers.

[SkaldedDawg]

Great summary! Thanks!

how about one simple fix for rituals: don´t have trees and buildings spawn inside ritual sites. its already small space and you have no chance of moving out of anything when its full of clutter and stuff. I have started to skip rituals altogether has an unplayable part of the game.

They mentioned in the stream that they are working on crashes but some of them are hard to debug.

Gelid Zealots instakilling because Eye of Winter can spawn all of the projectiles at once inside of you, hitting you with all of them because there are no immunity frames after taking damage.
