Version history /3

Version	Changes
3.23.0	Destructive Link:
3.17.0	The "All Attacks with this Weapon are Critical Strikes" modifier on Trypanon causes the critical strike chance of the weapon itself to display as 100%, as though it was modifying the weapon's critical strike chance, which it doesn't actually do. This would mean that Destructive Link would not grant 100% critical strike chance to the linked target.
3.16.0	Added a new Intelligence/Dexterity Skill gem - Destructive Link: Targets an allied player to apply a buff which links you to them for a duration. While linked, they use your critical strike chance for main hand hits. If the target dies while linked, you will also die. This skill cannot be used by Totems, Traps, or Mines. This tag can be found on the following Skill Gems: Ambush, Assassin’s Mark, Battlemage’s Cry, Bladefall, Blade Vortex, Vaal Blade Vortex, Cobra Lash, Destructive Link, Dual Strike, Frost Shield, Ice Spear, Icicle Mine, Lightning Spire Trap, Lightning Trap, Vaal Lightning Trap, Precision, Power Siphon, Vaal Power Siphon, Summon Ice Golem, and Zealotry. Destructive Link can be purchased from Petarus and Vanja by the Shadow, Witch and Scion after completing Breaking the Seal. Updated - Added a new Intelligence/Dexterity Skill gem - Destructive Link: Targets an allied player to apply a biff which links you to them for a duration. While linked, they use your critical strike chance for main hand hits. If the target dies while linked, you will also die. This skill cannot be used by Totems, Traps, or Mines.
