BALANCE CHANGES:

• Huge list of changes this patch, most of them are related to Energy cost reductions and flattening skill progressions, making each skill point provide the same increase in power. The starting and ending points of these skills were kept as close to their old values as possible. We also changed how Adrenaline Rush works: you can no longer cast the skill on an ally, but it now deals 85% damage to an enemy in addition to the Rage gain. Spore Bombardment also now deals 85% damage to two targets instead of the standard 90% to compensate for the skill being free to cast.
