Item	Description

Version history

Version	Changes
0.3.0	Minions now deal 3% more Damage with Hits and Ailments against non-unique monsters at skill level 3, scaling to 50% more Damage with Hits and Ailments against non-unique monsters by skill level 8. The base damage scaling of all player spell and secondary damage skills has been tweaked to scale better in the late game. Generally speaking, spells that do not have damage number changes called out below will have near-identical base damage at low levels, roughly 5% more damage at gem level 20, and roughly 20% more damage at gem level 30. Unearth: Can now be used on dead Skeletal Reviving Minions, once per death, to create a Bone Construct. Bone Constructs created by Unearth now have a dash attack they can use to close the distance to an enemy. Quality now also increases Bone Construct movement speed. The description has been updated to indicate that larger Corpses can create more than one Bone Construct. Removed "Barrageable" gem tag. [Undocumented]
0.2.1	Added "Barrageable" gem tag. [Undocumented]
0.2.0	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. Unearth's Bone Construct duration is now 15 seconds (previously 12 seconds). Quality now provides +0-5 seconds to Bone Construct duration (previously +0-4).
0.1.0e	Increased the damage growth per level on Unearth (non-Minion component), Bonestorm, Bone Cage, Bone Blast (Wand Skill) and Power Siphon (Wand Skill). Results in approximately 50% more damage at Gem Level 25. Fixed a bug where Unearth didn't work with the Sacrifice Spirit Gem.
0.1.0	Introduced to the game.
