    Yes, she posted them before the weekend, probably after the build got golded, so she wouldn't be up at 6 AM writing patch notes. :P

    FYI - There is no such thing as 'night capping' in a world wide MMO.
    FYI - There was no paid Beta. When they launched the game the Beta was over, even if you don't think it was.
    FYI - It's B2P not F2P. There is a difference.
    FYI - It doesn't take any player skill to mash keys or buttons in this game. The ones that stay alive longer have the better internet connection and speed.
    FYI - The game is not broken, it still works. It just has 'bugs' that need to be fixed.
    Balance is a "Bad" thing.

    Example: There were hundreds of Jedi and only two Sith in Star Wars. The Jedi wanted, "Balance in the Force" and they got it. Now there are only two Jedi and two Sith.

    Balance is a "Bad" thing.
    Is the glass half full or half empty?
    I say, "Get a smaller glass."

    Those are the real, official patch notes for Early Access beginning today. I started building them out on Friday so I wouldn't have to wake up super early today. You'll see some sections have edits last night/this morning. ;)

    I sit corrected. Thanks Gina.

    Will you be updating the previous 3.0.4 or creating a new 3.0.5?

    Here are the changes for Siphoning Strikes, and we'll update the patch notes to reflect:
    • Recasting this ability or its morphs early will now always trigger the ending resource restore. The value of this restore is based on the length of time the abilities were active, similar to Rally's heal.
    • Each Light or Heavy Attack from this ability or its morphs will now restore less resources, but the final burst at the end will restore more resources. The total resources restored by this ability will remain roughly the same.

    I don't get it, this is a very good buff if you can spam it to get 2k back but if it works like Rally and it restore only 100 Stamina/Magicka if you spam it then it's a *** and useless buff and that skill will be completely replaced by Grim Focus.

    Actually I think it is okayish, yes the resource return could be higher but on pts it was so annoying that you lost the whole stam when you recasted it 1 sec too early

    So it completely works like Rally? What a shame I enjoyed the animation of that skill so much now in both short and long term Grim Focus is way superior.

    They serve completely different purposes, focus gives you 10% more regen but siphoning costs ~ 1k restores 1.5k health + a low number of resources and if you recast it you get some more resources, I have to check how big the numbers are but doesn't sound that bad tbh

    Minor Berserk and a very good damage ability.

    The purpose of both are to give more sustain to be honest, from a PvP aspect I've never used Grim Focus or Siphoning Strikes for anything else besides sustain now I will use Grim Focus as always for sustain and now I will replace it for Mass Hysteria in front bar for way more burst.

    For PvE I don't think you need healing at all and 100 Stamina or Magicka is just ridiculous with a heavy attack you get 3-4k resource so basically in 3 seconds you get the same amount than after 40 Light attacks with Siphoning Strikes.

    The skill should have restored around 500 of each ressource but well....

    Everything on that is the "updated" section. Its for the live server, not the PTS.
    Power level to CP160 in a week:
    Where is the end game? You just played it.
    Why don't I have 300+ skill points? Because you skipped content along the way.
    Where is new content? Sigh.

    Thank you that helps. Was going through all the pts patch notes looking confused.

    Focus serves as a free filler skill now in PVE. Five light attacks used in between skills means that every 4/5 skills cast in a NB rotation will cost a resource while the 5th can be free cast, it's like a 20% cost reduction in a sense. Or more like 10-15% cost reduction, depending on whether it can be a cast twice or three times before expiring. It does this on top of the 10% Regen buff.

    @Sinnfullduck, Here is the updated Siphoning Strikes.
