Version history

Version	Changes
2.3.0	The cast time for and Vaal Ice Nova have been reduced from 900ms to 800ms.
2.0.0	Critical Strike Chance increased to 6%.
1.1.0d	Vaal Skill soul counts were initially balanced for Merciless difficulty, where there are more monsters. We want them to be easier to use in Normal and Cruel difficulty. We have halved the number of souls required for each skill. In Cruel difficulty, skills require 50% more souls to uses. In Merciless difficulty, they require 100% more (which is the same as before the patch).
1.1.0	Introduced to the game.
