Come on gang...last time they wrote up a bunch of changes they never happened. Remember the Glyph of Conflag or Decimation changes?; Still in the patch notes, but didn't happen. I now refuse to lament or QQ over anything till it goes live. But uh, I was kinda expecting this one...what with Pally bubbles being off limits and all...amirite?

Re: Chaos Bolt change in upcoming patch...

i don't get what are you qq-ing about guys.
the spell will only work as intended. It was never supposed to pierce damage REDUCTION mechanisms, only absorbtion.

Re: Chaos Bolt change in upcoming patch...

Isn't absorption a damage reduction mechanism? It does reduce the about of damage done afterall.

"Chaos Bolt: This spell no longer ignores damage reduction effects of the target."


Think it just meens that it will not ignore resiliance any more, but still pierce sheilds etc?

Chaos Bolt (Rank 4)

yeah, they're totally so close. Of course if you're spec'd for Chaos bolt and using shadow bolts well...

Re: Chaos Bolt change in upcoming patch...

Anybody have any clarification if this is just for an ability like Renewed Hope or did they just turn Chaos Bolt into a roided out Soul Fire with a quick cast time?
