Patch 15 Datamined Information

Posted 16 March 2012 by Rushster

Patch 15 is a very small patch so there is nothing major but there are as usual skill changes and some string changes. We will be updating this post as we go with the datamining but there won’t be anything too major this time I shouldn’t think. There are only a few interface image changes worth noting, the rest are quite minor changes to borders and headers which are added to the datamining gallery.

We have also posted big lists of all the string changes in this patch if you want to look through those too.

Update: Skill changes have now all been added in our handy comparison table.

  • IGR Playtime?  Is that a parental control thing?

  • heads up, those Patch 15 profiles Coloured are not new, two of them were jsut moved around

  • What does IRG stand for?

  • “TrialDialogText” = “Thank you for Playing Starter Edition. May You continue to play BUT need to Upgrade in order to enjoy New quests, Higher levels, and More Monsters and challenging game Modes.”

    This is intresting… are they gonna sell us new quest and diferent scenarios? Does anyone know anything about this?

  • This is cool information, but you should maybe add a break and a “Read More” link. It’s currently taking up the entire first page of the site plus about 2-3 screens of scrolling.

    [g_killElitePack_0_desc] Defeating an Elite pack has increased your Magic Find and Gold Find. () from file: BuffTooltips is now: Defeating an Elite pack has increased your Magic Find and Gold Find. This effect ends if you change skills. ()

    That looks like a nice way to prevent people from changing skills to adapt for each boss. You can still choose a cookie cutter spec for a specific boss but then you lose the magic find bonus. I think most people will choose a good overall spec and keep it for their entire play session.

    Excellent design in my opinion. 

    • Absolutely, that sounds great. I hope beta patch 15 already contains this magic find bonus, I’m quite excited about it.

  • Sweeping wind costs spirit? That seems odd given its (previous?) status as a spirit generator.

  • wd better get ready to spend some mana. seems they upped all his costs

    • It does seem that way, but they also upped all the abilities/rune effects that give us BACK mana. Seems like that bulb will be fluctuating more. And it seems  that DoT abilities overall got longer durations and more total damage, which equates to around the same DPS.

    • The really big increase on the cost of locusts really jumped off the page at me.  The damage buff is certainly nice, but over 5 times the mana cost is very steep.  If you combined it with Pierce the Veil, that’s over 500 mana a cast.  Ouch.

      Granted I have no idea what endgame mana pools will look like, but it still seems like spending 400-500 mana on one spell cast is going to leave a dent regardless.

      The other skill increases seem to be at least manageable in cost though, and they did buff the mana generator effects to help compensate. Seems like it will be fine overall, just a bit more mana management will be necessary.

  • barbs nerfed and wizards buffed
    remind me wow where warriors got 6 years of nerfs anfd warlocks buffs)

    • One skill rune got hit and the whole class goes into the ‘nerf’ category?

      If anything, the “30% resist all” passive (ranged/melee I take it) is the best thing any class has received. 

  • You wrote Chartge at the top instead of charge. Just saying!
    Keep up the good work btw, I love this site.
