Holy shit its real

Wonderful change, so only 60-ish skill points on skill point starved class to utilize it properly.. Druid gets more hp and a lot of def on top of it from Barkskin alone.

If possible, I am quite willing Barkskin to exchange famine

The 1% attack speed = 1% EWD on the maiden bow.... is this bonus for the attack speed of the bow only, or the total attack speed of the character? Just curious.

Locust Hive is with 4% LS in the docs, but 1 LoS in the patch notes

Locust Hive: reworked
4% ctc arrow on striking
adds (2-3) to (8-10) magic damage
+1 life on striking

The new Athulua's Blessing SSU heavy gloves with 10-15 Rapid Wyrmshot... this will drain mana fast-fast without adding any damage. The best roll for Rapid Wyrmshot is 1.

Thank you very much for answering I didn't notice they snuck in a change already haha
Do you think the new bow still offers enough to be an solid endgame weapon?

Doubt it, its 20 base wsm witch means around 500 ias to get 6frame. It will be hard to get that without losing gems slots.

Yea its literally better than all other bows, the last fpa can easily be achieved with the right gear.

These changes in avoid doesn't change anything except for assassin and wolf druid which will be more tanky and to a lesser degree necro and barb.

The others have so few and little avoid sources that won't have any impact at all.
