    I see no difference comparing the damage of Azure with more or less crit damage. I've tried at 70% and at 88% with no difference in Azure's damage, keeping everything else the same. The numbers were identical for Azure.

    What suggested that it was the crit damage stat causing the changes? Others are reporting suspiciously high damage, but I'm not clear on what's caused the buff, as the devs claimed this would be a nerf.

    It's not crit related. Zeebs tested it today also.

    I think the higher damage is just from banner, personally. Azure total damage on Bahsei with similar groups is about the same. DSR groups are finding their clears are faster which makes sense because azure is reaching the new max scaling more often.

    Yeah, on paper it will outdo the old Azure at 4 targets and above.

    I'm finding the coefficient also wasn't nerfed by a full 58%, closer to maybe 55%, which means a bigger buff at 4+ targets.

    I'm just confused by reports of twice the damage, which it shouldn't be doing.

    Also there is definitively a bug now: Master at Arms stopped working on it. The only 6% blue CP that works is Biting Aura.

    How about the reports that it's still proccing on the same target multiple times per second

    How about the reported issues with it exploding multiple times per second in situations that cannot be explained by independent 20-stacks being built and procced within the same fractions of seconds?

    Are you referring to the ability for one single instance of Blight Seed on one target to explode multiple times in the same millisecond?

    That's been around since Update 41. I'm not aware of anything that changed with that this patch.

    It's also respecting individual cooldowns - individual casters cannot proc the explosion more than once per second. I think the language around the set is confusing, but the explosion cooldown definitely only explodes once per person per second. And before U44 it exploded once per person per 0.5s (note this target was not always reached).

    Hi Sarah, let us assume sure the set is functioning properly when it comes to respecting the cooldowns, sure. I just want to know why it is doing almost twice the damage now. This set was supposed to get balanced and brought down. I ran Sanity's edge last night and the ads MELTED, we laughed about just how busted this set is. Same thing on Ansuul / Bahsei / Reef. Is the new scaling THIS much of a buff? If so the set got extremely buffed then no? So...what was the point of adjustment? There is absolutely something wrong the way this set it functioning and it needs to be looked at. I am just not sure why there is so much silence from the devs on one of the main talking points during the 7 week PTS cycle.

    Well, it was buffed by 600% at max stacks so that's probably why.

    Edit: also with banner behaving oddly when stacked I could see there being unaccounted for buffs. But that's being hotfixed out today.
