Area Damage's Future

Nevalistis made a post confirming the Area Damage bug what some players reported a while ago. She also said that changes to Area Damage won't come in the next Patch (2.2.1) because they will be reviewing the how the mechanic itself works in the future. Read below.

Area Damage is not benefiting from some skills or unique powers.

This is something we intend to fix, but we're holding off implementing these fixes for the time being as we're reviewing the mechanics of Area Damage as a whole and we want to avoid introducing sweeping changes in the middle of a Season. As a result, changes to Area Damage will not be coming in Patch 2.2.1, but at a later date. I do want to thank everyone who's brought this to our attention and provided detailed reports. Your diligence was extremely helpful! (Official Forums)

We'll be taking a long look at Area Damage in a future patch, just not 2.2.1: http://blizz.ly/1J9zUQe (Twitter)

Fetish Horde WD

A WD build by bigdaddyden has become quite popular on our Builds section. Pretty cool variant on an already known base concept - and it comes with a video guide for those who prefer that kind of medium. Check it out!
