Soon today, we’re going to make the following adjustments in a single hotfix:

Echoing Void damage has been reduced by 50%.
Echoing Void no longer deals reduced damage in PvP combat.

Deadly Momentum’s buff duration has been increased to 30 seconds (was 15 seconds).
Void Ritual’s stat bonus per stack has been approximately doubled at each rank.
Surging Vitality’s Versatility value has been increased by 10%.
Avoidant now subjects you to 20% less Corruption at each rank.

Comment by AdernainAt least no nerf to my only corruption, twilight deva. RIP Echoing thoughComment by Ascendx50% kekwComment by ZachenLeaving Infinite Star alone while doing these changes just doesn't make sense to me.Comment by ElectronicusWell it was fun while it lasted!Comment by LahereeThey better restore some corrupted gear effects then. I cleansed a rank 3 VR.Comment by DarwinCZEthe best nerf everComment by Vanninenhow does a corruption needing 50% nerf go live even? If its live, live it aloneComment by NeryssaLeaving Infinite Star alone while doing these changes just doesn't make sense to me.Comment by SkyreiThey better restore some corrupted gear effects then. I cleansed a rank 3 VR.Comment by BaneleafThis is apparently on top of the already launched 20% nerf last weeks.Comment by RugaLeaving Infinite Star alone while doing these changes just doesn't make sense to me.Comment by PostedI've come to the conclusion they don't play their game... Sure, nerf echoing void but NOT touching twilight devastation? Are you serious? They're out of their minds over there at HQComment by Gogeta1990If only they had QA staff to catch this sort of ridiculous and broken tuning/balance.

I conclude that literally no one of the Blizzard developers knows how to sim,
or stuff like Echoing Void would've been caught instantly.

Heck, i can do that corruption's math with pen and paper.Comment by ForezeraInfinite stars isn't even that OP anymoreComment by sepiurLeaving Infinite Star alone while doing these changes just doesn't make sense to me.Comment by Neorodif they nerf echoing by 50% they should nerf the corruption cost of it by 50% tooComment by grayshirtSad about that 50% nerf. I never even got to play with it. That seems major and would put it below more than a few other corruption effects.

It wasn't that far ahead of things like Gushing Wound, Twilight Devastation, and the +% stats in the first place.Comment by RevengeVThey better restore some corrupted gear effects then. I cleansed a rank 3 VR.Comment by PostedTwilight Devastation does double the amount of damage Echoing Void does as it stands now. Why are we black sheeping Echoing VoidComment by Zentris1yeah boy I just LOVE USING STATS INSTEAD OF COOL EFFECTS GIVEN TO ME.

it's like they present their cake then set in on fire and ^&*! on the remains.
"just get x corruption instead its no big deal, 3head"
let me whip out the ole credit card and get to the auction house.
Because every other way of acquisition is run-of-the-mill TF/WF RNG and then some.

can't wait for BFA to be over holy hell.
