I haven't heard any news of them changing the animation of Jabs. IMO, unless they change or properly fix the animation of the new jabs, there's no reason to use it regardless of its damage output. It could deal a million dps, and I'd still never use it cause it feels bad to use and looks bad. And is totally fixable with an hour of work by an animator, since it's just an animation timing issue. Course using the Nighthollow Staff motif sucks and I'd prefer if they made a unique looking spear for it instead, I'd be happy if they just paid an animator an hours worth of wage to fix the animation.


What I've heard is they're adding a buff to Solar Barrage where, while it's active, your templar skills will deal x% more damage. We'll find out Monday if that's the case and how much it will buff your skills.
