Focused Feedback Update

The focused feedback thread for the Patch 2.1.2 PTR has been updated to request feedback on Set changes. Nevalistis also explained why there's only one thread for all these changes, instead of individual ones. Check it out!

Please refer to the original post for the details and associated patch notes regarding these changes.

As a reminder: In order to facilitate focused feedback, posts in this thread that are not relevant to the topics listed above will be deleted. While all feedback is welcome, we ask that you create a new thread for your concerns if they are outside the above topics. Thank you!
Enemies hit by Furious Charge take 3000% weapon damage over 3 seconds
Note: This DoT cannot crit, your Critical Hit Chance and Critical Hit Damage will be calculated into its damage
Just noticed this. Here it is listed as the six piece set bonus but in-game it is currently a five-piece set bonus still. Is this a typo or a bug?
Typo, Got overzealous with some code copypasting, I think, and missed it. I'll get that fixed. Thanks!
Second, Neva, how about creating a new focused feedback thread for each set? You only just added Raekor to the list a couple hours ago, but there have been numerous threads with feedback regarding that topic already and people may miss the fact that now you ask for focused feedback here, when there are multiple discussions going on elsewhere.

Then the question may appear "was the constructive Barb feedback posted outside of this thread before you added Raekor eligible?"
Mostly to avoid forum clutter. The more cluttered stickies get, the more people gloss over and subsequently ignore them. Organization reasons, mostly.

Conversations outside of here aren't being ignored. I've been focused on gathering information from this thread specifically while Tyvalir and Grimiku have been tackling outside of it. It's a collaborative effort. Feedback is being read and heard either way, it just helps us split the load more reasonably. :)

Boon of the Hoarder Change

Some players have been getting Boon of the Hoarders from Greater Rifts on the PTR. Nevalistis clarified that is indeed an intended change to this item's drop mechanic, meant to make it easier for hardcore players to find it without having to find the Vault again. Read below.

This should only happen if you've previously found a Boon of the Hoarder. Primarily, we want to make it easier for Hardcore characters to reacquire one should they lose it to a Hardcore death.
So, in any event, you'll need to find the Vault at least once before you can acquire a Boon of the Hoarder.

Immortal Support Monk

MeatHeadMikhail has put together a Support Monk on the PTR that doesn't rely on cooldown reduction and good timing on Serenity - based on the new Gems and some changes to Life Regen. If you're into a support build and looking forward to something similar, yet a little bit different on 2.1.2, it might be the build for you!
