In which %? I tried to get 50%+ chance to evade versus enfeebled boss, now its new calculations D

Is it good or bad for def?

Well that sounds scary, glad one of my characters just beat Merc Vaal before this went into affect. By how much is it reduced and how is this information conveyed to the player so that they have some way of telling that the monster they cursed isn't cursed the same as the others? If the skill says it does X and then does X*.7 and doesn't show this in some way that's rather unkind to give the player bad info that could get them killed.

What? There is no 'Block Reduction' in this game. Are you talking about block recovery?

There's some sword passives that reduce enemy block chance. Of course, you wouldn't have heard of them since they aren't life nodes.

This is block reduction, such as from the Sword Damage and Reduced Enemy Block Chance passives.

Tweaked various uses of audio reverb.

Great. I have reverb off and it still sounds like I'm in the bottom of a well.

Beyond the question that was already asked above, is this a consistent reduction of curse effects across all bosses or is it variable?
