  • Now has a Soul Gain Prevention duration of 2 seconds (previously 4).
  • Vaal Skill Gems can now only be obtained from a set of specific methods such as Corrupting Gems, Vaal Side Areas, Divination Cards (that specifically grant Vaal Skill Gems) and the Lapidary Lens in the Temple of Atzoatl.
  • 2.3.0
  • The cast time for Ice Nova and Vaal Ice Nova have been reduced from 900ms to 800ms.
  • 2.0.0
  • Critical Strike Chance increased to 6%.
  • 1.1.0d
  • Vaal Skill soul counts were initially balanced for Merciless difficulty, where there are more monsters. We want them to be easier to use in Normal and Cruel difficulty. We have halved the number of souls required for each skill. In Cruel difficulty, skills require 50% more souls to uses. In Merciless difficulty, they require 100% more (which is the same as before the patch).
