Feb 05 2015 - Patch Notes

FEATURES:
Added controller sensitivity options

GAMEPLAY CHANGES:

• Altered Magic Boomerang's spell behavior:
• On Spell: If the spell hits an enemy, a mana boomerang is launched towards the player. Catching it restores some of the cost of the spell. 

• Design Context: Magic Boomerang? More like Magic BoomeRANGE. In a lot of situations, the interesting decisions involved in high-grade Magic Boomerang spells included "can I click on my target" and "how high can I set my monitor resolution". They bypassed a lot of important pacing systems (namely spell range) which resulted in them being "fun because powerful" and not "fun because interesting". We're not hating on spell-snipers here, though! We love Quicksilver Gear and Rock and if you want to hit from miles away you've still got options. 

• This change was also to help out some underappreciated materials such as Philosopher Stone and Soul Contract. By giving a skill-based avenue to mitigating these costs, we hope to have opened up some exciting paths of spellcrafting.

• Rift Crystal robes are now capped at 50% dodge chance. 
• On-hit effects are now triggered if you execute a target on spell hit
