Reworked Cataclysm skill
► Show Spoiler
Cataclysm
Concept: the skill cannot retain its current functionality as there are other fire oSkills which do the job better. Its mechanics are less suited to crowd clearing compared to Apocalypse and less suited to single target compared to Pentagram. The skill is widely available so it must be reworked to provide benefits to many builds and Paladins in particular.
Skill Changes:
Renamed to Ignis Fatuus
No longer conjures a fireball nova around you, is now a long duration buff
Grants Spell Focus, Fire damage to weapons and reduces your Fire Resistance
Spell Focus bonus is +5 per Skill Level until level 40, and +2 afterwards
Fire damage bonus is 12 - 20 per Skill Level until level 40, and 6 - 10 afterwards
Fire resistance penalty is 1.5% per Skill Level
Duration is reduced to 20 seconds if you obtain this buff from a proc
Item Changes:
Armageddon Set: no longer gives a Cataclysm proc, set bonus is now "50% increased Cataclysm bonuses". Removed all skill bonuses from items to balance the set for non-fire builds
Ensi Runeword: now procs Apocalypse, chance is now 33% down from 40%
Apocstasy Runeword: now gives Pyroblast instead
Eternal Vigil: proc removed, other proc chances now 4% up from 3%
Hammer of Jholm: now procs Apocalypse
Heart of Fire: now procs Pyroblast
Bartuc's Curse: now gives Phoenix Wave
Veil of the Tainted Sun: now gives Pentagram
Proc level on the magic/rare/crafted affix increased to 40, up from 19
Can now spawn as an affix on magic/rare/crafted Druid Helms and Paladin Helms instead of Sorceress Orbs and Necromancer Staves
