Well, it's something.

and Shock Sorcerer builds will see the most changes. Fireball's skill tree upgrade, Enhanced Fireball, will now just make the explosion 50% bigger regardless of how far it's traveled. Hydras, the little fire-spewing pseudo-companions, will stick around long enough that they might be strong enough to make a build around.

For Shock builds, the Aspect of the Unbroken Tether adds even more bounces to Chain Lightning, which further increases the damage buff I mentioned before. And a new Legendary bonus, the Mage-Lord's Aspect, adds up to 27% damage reduction when you're surrounded by enemies—a significant increase in survivability for one of the flimsiest classes in the action RPG.

Barbarians are the other focus of the patch and their changes are also relatively minor when it comes to popular endgame builds. The changes to Fury generation should reduce how long you have to wait for powerful skills while leveling, andhave several options to increase their damage with a massive increase to Enhanced Ruptures explosion damage.
