COMBAT - CROWD CONTROL CHANGES

player stuns, fears, roots, snares, and charms will now break if the
victim's health is reduced by a certain percentage (depending on the

are applied at the start of the crowd control, and not at the end.

same type before the previous one runs out and immunity has been
applied.

* Death's Gaze
* Curse of the Lotus
* From the Darkness

Assassin Revamp
Update 1.06 introduces a number of improvements we could make to the
Assassin class in several different areas. We have generally taken a
somewhat different approach to the class revamps which have occurred
since the 1.05 update, and this was applied to the Assassin during the
course of its revamp. Among other things, it involves giving a revamped
class some unique set of mechanics that encourage meaningful tactical
choice on the battlefield. But also a distinct identity in how the class
feels and plays to the player, as well as opponents facing the class
and also how the class is viewed by group members.
This article describes the Assassin revamp in detail (

Grave's Blossom and Death Whirlwind have been adjusted. They will now
scale somewhat differently for 1-4 Soul Fragments, and should still do
about the same for 5 Soul Fragments. Both these combos will now also hit
a second target with full damage, but will follow the normal rules for
damage reduction on any targets beyond the second.
