Item	Description

Version history

Version	Changes
0.3.0	Killing Palm, Staggering Palm, Shattering Palm, Hand of Chayula, and Frozen Locus now deal damage based on your equipped quarterstaff. They no longer have flat added damage or additional critical strike chance. Palm skills can no longer be used without a quarterstaff equipped by default. Hand of Chayula: Quality now provides +0-20% increased Duration of Socketed Gems, instead of Supported Curses have 0-10% increased Magnitudes. It still also provides increased Effect of Socketed Marks.
0.2.0	The player's base attack speed while Unarmed is now 1.4 attacks per second (previously 1.2). Killing Palm, Shattering Palm, Staggering Palm and Hand of Chayula now have 25% less Attack Speed to compensate for this change (previously 10%). Many Skills have had their base damage and/or damage growth per level rebalanced. Most of these changes are not specifically mentioned below as the changes are too widespread. The mana cost for all Attacks, Marks and Warcries has been reduced, most notably at higher Gem levels. Hand of Chayula now specifies that it triggers socketed Marks. This is purely a description change.
0.1.0	Introduced to the game.
