Season 13 begins today!!! With it comes Patch #22: Minium!

For those who missed it, we had a lengthy "relic beta" where we beta tested a rework of the relics. All monsters, their stats and even some relic tiers have been swapped around based on several rounds of feedback from the community. Below are some highlights but you can find the full notes here[1] and here[2].

• New Orb of Alteration: This orb will always drop from a relic boss and will re-roll a relic into a new one with new stats (of the same tier).
• All monster types have been fully reworked for all relics. This means you will encounter different monsters which were mostly selected by the volunteer relics council.
• Many monster types have had their other stats (such as life) tweaked.
• Baleful Alcazar changed from Red (Tier3) to White (Tier1).
• Baleful Alcazar number of total elites reduced slightly due to small relic size.
• Decomposing Settlement changed from Yellow (Tier2) to White (Tier1).
• Icy Cavern changed from White (Tier1) to Yellow (Tier2).
• Frigid Plateau changed from White (Tier1) to Red (Tier3).
• Musty Crypt changed from Yellow (Tier2) to Red (Tier3)

Patch Notes:

• Clarified Leap’s skill description to indicate it does damage in an area upon landing. Also renamed the skill to Leap Slam.
• Clarified Frenzy’s skill description to indicate that the ‘magic damage percent’ is ‘physical damage converted to magic’. Furthermore, the description now clarifies which bonuses are part of the buff (attack & run speed).
• Clarified Amplify Damage’s skill description and stat to indicate that it doesn’t actually make monsters get +100% Damage Taken but rather has always reduced monster physical resist by -100%, meaning it has always been the physical version of Lower Resist curse. (To be clear: this skill still works identically to vanilla and this change is only meant to clarify the confusing description written by Blizzard)
• Clarified Decrepify’s skill description by adding stats to indicate that it reduces physical resistance, physical damage, walk/run speed and attack rate by 50%. (To be clear: this skill still works identically to vanilla and this change is only meant to clarify the confusing description written by Blizzard)
• Removed the mention of requiring a “finisher” on Tiger Strike’s skill description.
• Clarified Cobra Strike to indicate which charge gives what bonuses and that their effects are cumulative.
• Fixed Cobra Strike’s ‘-Monster Defense per Hit’ stat which wasn’t applying correctly.
• Confuse now also has “% Chance Confused Enemy is Knocked Back When Hit”.

• Fixed a bug which caused Multiple Shot to trigger Chance-to-Cast stats on all arrows instead of the two middle arrows as usual.
• Multiple Shot can now trigger Chance-to-Cast stats on the three center arrows. (This had been previously announced months before last season but had not been applied correctly due to the bug described above)
• Multiple Shot damage at level 17+ lowered very slightly. (At level 27 was 101-115, now 96-110)
• Multiple Shot weapon damage increased from 85% to 87%.
• Hand of Justice’s “Meteor on Death” stat replaced with “+50% increased Holy Fire Area Damage rate”.
• Ice Arrow has been reworked: it leaves a trail of ice which deals damage over time.
• Blessed Hammer will now pierce through objects & walls and continue its trajectory rather than being destroyed. (Initial travel speed increased a tiny amount and NHD=3) [Yes you can now do maggot lair with Blessed Hammer!]

• Call to Arms new stat: "100% Chance to Cast Level 31 War Cry When You Kill an Enemy"

• I'm very proud to announce a rework of Poison Creeper. After putting a point in Poison Creeper, you will be granted an alternate version of this skill to test out. This version uses unused game assets and recreates what I believe to be the original intention by the Blizzard developers which may have been scrapped due to lack of time. I believe the original intention was a spider-like plant that follows you around and inserts its tongue into the ground which seeks out enemies and attacks them at range.
• Lance Guard reworked: https://greendu.de/i/lEsA.png
• Lightning Fury synergy changed to Lightning Bolt & Power Strike at 2% each (was Lightning Bolt at 5%).

• Reduced the gamble cost of Arrows & Bolts.
• Blessed Hammer proc from Blessed Aim now starts at 12%, increasing by 2% per level and eventually by 1% per level beyond level ten. (was 1% initially then 2%/lvl)
