Changes to the talent system

Simplification of the user interface and other features allowed for a number of balance adjustments based on data from previous tests. These changes will make it easier for players to get started with new talent and learn all the benefits of the system.

Periodically, the talent system data will be reset on the test server, while the obtained essences will always be saved. Some of the old emblem-related quests and achievements will no longer be available when the emblem system is replaced with the new one. The developers apologize for the inconvenience caused.

• Tickets used to purchase additional talent pages are also converted to essence.
• Activate normal abilities now will require 800 essence. The number of free uses provided upon activation has been increased to 200.
• When the essence is enough, on the main talent screen the "Buy with one touch" button will appear, which allows you to purchase everything you can with one click.

Removed and changed talents

• Main Talents: Fatal Snare, Master Assassin, Arcane Furor and Immortal Fury (temporarily removed).
• Regular Talents: Warrior Lineage, Giant Slayer, Vampiric Touch, Essence Reaper, Spell Master and Wilderness Blessing, Crit Chance and Damage, Spell Vamp and Cooldown Reduction and Penetration (temporarily removed).
• Added by: Fast recovery.
• Changed: Attack Speed ​​to Attack Speed ​​and Crit Chance.

Due to the removal of some abilities, players will only be able to see a limited number of popular schemes available for most heroes after the update.

Balance Adjustments

The balance adjustments in the patch focus on the following aspects:

1. Reduced the duration of abilities with a long cooldown period and reduced overly powerful effects.
2. In order to maintain a balanced environment in the match, there will be fewer spikes in certain stats, including thirst for blood и spell lifesteal.
3. Ability effects will be more balanced throughout the game.
4. The trigger conditions and effects of some talents have been changed to make them more intelligent.
5. Other balance adjustments.
