PTR - AQ3D

PTRb77 Patch Notes
Public Dungeons
  * You can now join public dungeons as a party
  * The party leader must join a public dungeon, then all other party members will get a popup option to join the same instance.

Class Updates
  * We're testing the final round of changes for the starter class updates
  * Please given any feedback you have about gameplay, visuals, sounds, balance, etc!
  * Below are all the changes to each class compared to Live, bolded changes are new since the last PTR update.

Warrior
Goals: Make the class more of a bruiser, and add more decision-making to which spell should get the damage bonus from the passive.
  * War Cry (Passive)
    - Is now a resource, Fury. Every spell grants 25 Fury, at 100 Fury, your next spell activates War Cry
    - War Cry now increases damage of the spell being cast by 50%, up from a flat Power increase of 25
    - To compensate, damage of spells adjusted. Overall, Whirlwind should be a bit weaker than before, and Crushing Blow a bit stronger
  * AA - Uses new combo system that deals more damage each third consecutive hit
  * Sever - Aggro bonus from damage +0% -> +50% +75%
  * Whirlwind - Armor Break amount 15% -> 30%
  * Whirlwind - Armor Break duration 8s -> 4s
PTRb77 Patch Notes (continued)
Rogue
Goals: Make maintaining Poison stacks a more active process, and boost the damage from Poison to make this more rewarding.
  * AA - Changed to combo system that applies 2 stacks of Poison on third hit. 
    - Combo speed increased, and third strike is a guaranteed hit.
  * Poison Strike - Applies 3 -> 2 stacks of Poison (Rank 6: 4 -> 3 stacks)
  * Poison - Power per stack 16 -> 20
  * Poison - Duration 4s -> 5s
  * Scorpion Sting - Power 90 -> 80
  * Heavy Poison - Power per stack 32 -> 35 (Rank 8: 37 -> 40)
  * Heavy Poison - Deals damage over 6 -> 4 seconds

Mage
Mage has been heavily updated to be more active and give choices instead of just casting whatever spell is off cooldown. It uses Channeled spells that apply damage over time but require you to stand still, making positioning and planning important. We also wanted your Mana to matter, while keeping the feel of having an infinite amount.
  * Leylines (Passive) - Increases Haste by 10%
  * Fireball - Cast repeatedly to build Fire Aspect, increasing damage. Every third cast launches a powerful exploding fireball.
  * Ice Spear - Cast repeatedly to regain Mana and build Ice Aspect, increasing Cast Speed. Every third cast launches a conjured lance of ice at your foe, Slowing and dealing Frost damage over time.
  * Lightning Storm - Channel lightning into your target, Stunning with the initial blast.
  * Meteor Volley - Channel to summon devastating meteors to annihilate your target and the surrounding area.

Known Issues
  * There are some issues with Meteor Volley not playing all of its sounds properly

PTRb77 Additional Patch Notes (math related schtuff)

- All interactables, meaning things that move, rotate, or scale, are now completely synchronized with server & all other clients.
- Interactables will now interpolate to the correct transformation if you enter a map late.
- Interpolated collision triggers are now completely synced with server based collision triggers.
- Objects are now able to use interpolated rotation, scale, and position properly to allow for non-snapping behaviours.
- Objects are now able to use current rotation, scale, and position for dynamic interactions - see Trollenstein's saw blades, which move up, left/right, down, right/left (opposite of previous direction)

Noticeable places are Trollenstein's Lab, Fleshette's Nightmare, Battleon Sewers, Son of Braken, ShradeX and many more.
