- Madstone Rage now provides its proper 20% Melee Haste bonus.

On another note.. Did they actually fix any of the duping methods?

Why don't they just make a legit duping method that cost AS for the paladins so they can catch up and still pretend they didn't cheat...

Tbh, I was not very fond of this build, particularly because of shapeshift animation when it interacts with every...fucking...thing.

Hopefully they play with the barbs next patch and buff them up, supposed to happen soon.

How so?

Anniversary Cards can now go into the Bag Deposit Box
