Last update to shock nova.. what, 13 months ago and everyone has been asking for a deadzone removal or somesort of altering eversince. I cant see why GGG won't change this skill viable again. Makes me sad :( I agree with last 17 pages, please remove deadzone or do something that makes it viable again :D Please...?

Hm, how about letting us control the radius of the ring? Like if we click closer to our character the ring will shrink to hit enemies at that distance. That and/or let the ring persist for a moment (still hitting only once per enemy) so it's more viable against desynched rushers.

So, the Announcement made a week ago, "1.1.1c Patch Deployed and Content Update 1.1.2 Information", says "There are other changes (especially some buffs to less-popular skills) in the works, so if something isn't included in the above list, please don't assume it's not in this patch :)" Hopefully Shock Nova is among these less-popular skills.
