More updates in spells_us.txt, this time via the Test patcher...
Deadly paralysis - clone of Virulent Paralysis but with the following changes in duration and resist adjust:
Rank 1: 14 ticks, -35 to disease
Rank 2: 18 ticks, -40
Rank 3: 22 ticks, -45
Improved Union of Spirits - clone of Union, but with the following changes:
Rank 1: 2566 heal, 1283/tick HoT
Rank 2: 2933 heal, 1247/tick HoT (suggests that some sort of auto-converter has been used - rank 2 of Union also heals less than rank 1)
Rank 3: 3300 heal, 1650/tick HoT
Intensive Cannibalization - clone of Frenzied Canni
5000 HPs for 3000 mana
Ancient Rabid Bear: clone of Direwind Bear, but with the following stats:
120 to CR and DR
550/tick HoT
220 to STR and DEX
330 to ATK
Beckon Spirits - clone of Spirit Call (PoP era), no changes yet.
Copious Healing - no change from last week
What's interesting is that the HoTs and DP aren't really upgrades until you get the top rank. It could be a ploy to get you to buy the whole tree to get an upgrade, or, more likely, it's still very much work in progress.
The sort of numbers being played with aren't massive upgrades though, perhaps suggesting this won't be a level cap rise after all?
