0.9.12 Information and Incomplete Patch Notes (Updated)

I'm not too sure about the socket display change either, especially since socket configuration is how I readily identify particular items when searching through my stash. Maybe when each base item type has it's own individual artwork the lack of the Z toggle won't be as much of an inconvenience for me. I guess I'll adapt in any case :P

Looking forward to minion changes. I have both a high and a low level summoner so it will be interesting to see how they run with the updates. We seem to get more minions early on now but fewer late game. However, it's not all about numbers, and as you suggest Chris I will reserve my judgement!

Thanks for the latest update.

What's the deal with Fire Trap? How's it's AOE bugged? Just curious :]

I think this was a vastly heavy-handed change. Currently the phys reflect aura might be seen to be a little underpowered, but the ele reflect one is a huge problem to anyone using elemental damage area of effect skills (read: almost all of them). I have on multiple occasions 1 shotted myself at full hp because I got a freezing pulse crit on 3 mobs with ele reflect auras, or because of a few explosive arrow charges going off.

The cap to reflect is still there. So in those situations it should be a similar experience to what you currently have.

The cap is 25% of combined life and ES per source of reflect damage. And it is before mitigation and resistances.

So with 75% fire resist and Molten Shell, I should limit myself to a maximum of ... 25% of damage coming through per souce of max 25% of my life, which is 6.25% of my life, equals at maximum 15 mobs. That would leave me with 6.25% life left. I assume burning damage on monsters with elemental reflect also gets reflected? I would have time to react to it, so that leaves me with a roughly 10 mobs maximum (62.5% of my life taken on explosion, leaving 37.5% for reacting to possible reflecting burn damage).

Sockets now only appear on items if you press alt - they don't show permanently if you have Z (or equivalent) toggled.

This sounds bad. Will there be no way to see/default to seeing sockets at all times?

YESSSSSS, more life nodes in dex part of tree! FU iron reflexes, this is how we leech! great work, so fast, your team is incredible.

Well, end of the line for the minion HORDE! Hope I won't need those 30 minions anymore to make sure at least a couple stay with me when I go from room to room. :P

so uh minion instabilitys damage still going to only increase with life?

For now, I reckon Minion instagibity should only scale with minion life. ;) One major change at a time per patch - keep in mind that unimproved skeletons will now do 50% extra fire damage.

Does this only affect the items in your inventory or the items on the ground as well? If it does affect the items on the ground this is will create a massive problem with looting the right base items. If its only for Inventory items it would be acceptable but still (in my opinion) a drawback.

Please consider making this an option in the menue rather than a fix game component. It would be annoying having to press alt every time i want to overview my sockets and i dont mind them showing up all time.

Please do this. Most players only loot white and blue stuff by sockets. If I have to start to pick that all up and check it in my inventory I am gonna loose it ;)

What happen with map drops and players quantity? I don't see it as patch notes anymore.
