The Hopebringer Patch Notes — September 4, 2023
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Today's patch adds ricocheting projectiles, which are now supported by some NPC bosses (thanks to Astrochronic for the suggestion). Wizards also have a new spell which utilizes this feature. We'll be adding it to more abilities in the future.
NPCs
- Barbarian Witch-Doctors and Liches now have ricocheting projectile attacks.
Skills and Abilities
- Wizards (Mage) now gain access to train the Chain Lightning spell at level 12. It requires the Lightning spell to have been trained previously. This new spell is a projectile attack which will launch three multiple bolts, which can ricochet off of objects, and can damage multiple targets before they consumes themselves. This can be used to fire three shots around objects, or to fire into crowds where it can bounce many times. Each additional skill rank adds an additional bolt.
