You may notice some changes to your class in this update. These are intermediary changes that snuck into this build, and will be removed. These changes do not reflect the final state of changes to the Conqueror class, and again, they will be removed in a future build.
Dark Templar
There have been extensive changes to the Dark Templar class. In order to get a complete sense of how the class plays now, we recommend you test all changes thoroughly on Testlive before providing feedback.
Covenants:
* The Covenant system for Dark Templars has been streamlined and a number of Covenants merged or removed. There are now a total of 4 Covenants available, 3 innate (Covenant of Pestilence, Covenant of Invulnerability and Covenant of Vengeance) and 1 feated (Covenant of Arms). All Covenants now have a 1 second cast time, so they can be swapped around in combat if needed, but share a 5 second cooldown. All Covenants now share the same stacking order so can be overwritten by another Covenant without you needing to manually remove the currently running Covenant.
* Covenant of Pestilence has been converted into a physical mitigation Covenant. It provides a bonus armor % increase, causes attackers to take damage every time they hit you, and attacks against you have a chance of triggering AOE unholy damage around you.
* Removed the inherent snare effect from Covenant of Pestilence.
* Covenant of Invulnerability has been converted into a magical mitigation Covenant. It provides a bonus protection % increases, and causes casters to take damage every time they land a hostile spell on you. A new rank has been added to this Covenant, obtained at level 35.
* Covenant of Vengeance now gives you a weapon contribution % bonus, and attacks against you have a chance of granting you additional weapon contribution % bonus. There is now only a single rank of this Covenant, obtained at level 15.
* Covenant of Arms (feated via the Desecration tree) is meant to be a feated replacement for Covenant of Vengeance. It now gives you a weapon contribution % bonus, and your attacks have a chance of inflicting additional unholy damage on the target.
* The old Covenant of Death has been removed and turned into a passive ability. Now, when you get this ability at level 80, your Covenants of Pestilence and Invulnerability will become permanently augmented to grant you additional health tap (both physical and magical), while your Covenants of Vengeance and Arms will become permanently augmented to grant you the Blood for Blood buff whenever you or your team makes a killing blow, which grants you significant unholy combat rating for your next 3 attacks.
* The Vile Pestilence feat has been replaced with Solid Pestilence. Each rank adds armor to the Covenant of Pestilence, and causes you to gain Blood Seals when you are attacked. This also grants you the new Seal of Yog spell if you don't already have it. Each feat increases the maximum number of Blood Seals you can gain by 4 (4/8/12/16/20).
* The Invulnerable Soul feat has been changed and now each rank adds extra bonus protection % to Covenant of Invulnerability. In addition, it causes you to gain 1 charge of Invulnerable Soul per feat point when Covenant of Invulnerability is running, which grants you additional protection. When you are struck with a magical attack, it consumes a charge of Invulnerable Soul, and grants you an Arcane Seal. Your Invulnerable Soul stack will reset to the full amount 10 seconds after you last lost a stack charge. The maximum number of Arcane Seals you can gain is 10. This also grants you the new Seal of Yog spell if you don't already have it.
* Seal of Yog - This is a new spell granted by the Invulnerable Soul and Solid Pestilence feats. It consumes the Blood Seal or Arcane Seal stack that you have. The more seals that are consumed when it is used, the greated the power of the Seal of Yog.
-When consuming the Blood Seal stack, it increases your maximum health, and heals you for that amount.
-When consuming the Arcane Seal stack, it increases your critical rating and causes you to regain mana whenever you perform a critical strike. Additionally, enemy spellcasters will lose mana when they land hostile spells on you, with this mana loss increasing for each hostile spell that hits you, up to a maximum of 5 increments.
* Covenant of Vengeance is now available starting at level 15.
* Covenant of Arms and Covenant of Vengeance now grant bonus Weapon Damage passively while active.
* Removed Covenant of War and Covenant of Death from the Dark Templar's spell book.
* Covenant of Death is now a passive effect on all Covenants gained at level 80. It provides the current killing blow bonus "Blood for Blood" to both Covenant of Vengeance and Covenant of Arms. It will also provide Covenant of Invulnerability and Covenant of Pestilence with a passive Life Tap bonus.
* Reduced the cast time of all Covenants to 1 second.
* Added a 5 second shared cooldown for all Covenants.

* Increased the duration of the Hexed debuff caused by Blood Hex and Shadow Hex to 18 seconds (up from 12 seconds).
* Blood Hex and Shadow Hex are now abilities instead of spells. This should allow them to be used more fluidly, but they still cost mana to use.
* Added a new 1 point feat in the Desecration Tree: Spreading Shadows. This feat causes Shadow Hex to damage up to 2 targets near the primary target.
* Changed the Sadistic Vengeance feat to "Shadowed Blade." This feat gives a passive chance for your melee attacks (1/2/3/4/5 PPM per respective feat point) to cause the damaging effect of Shadow Hex on the target.
Other Changes:
* Mind Wrack is now an innate combo given at level 40.
* Redesigned the Deadly Covenants feat. It is now called: Unholy Empowerment. This feat increases the critical bonus damage of Covenant of Arms, Aura of Dread Fury, Blighted Soul, Blighted Touch, Approach of Death, Blood Hex, Shadow Hex, Pact / Reaper of Malacodor, and Corrupted Weapon by 15/30/45/60/75% per respective feat point.

* Removed the mana cost from all ranks of Martyrdom.

Curse of Gwahlur now also triggers from magical attacks. It now stacks a single debuff on the target 3 times, rather than having 3 separate debuffs.
* The Pestilential Cloud feat has been removed.
* Soul Infusion has been changed to be 1 point. When it triggers, it will give you 10% of your max mana back, otherwise the feat is unchanged.
* Replaced the Ravenous Eater feat with a new feat: Shadowed Soul. This feat grants a spell that transforms the templar into a shadow. While active the templar is immune to snare, root, and fear effects, Hexes become more powerful, and attacks cause additional unholy damage.
* Soul Barrier absorb values now scale with your level. The values have been reduced at level 25 and scale up to the current value at level 80.
* Pact of Malacodor is now a toggleable stance that no longer costs health to keep active. Instead, each hit performed costs mana.
* Reaper of Malacodor no longer grants a new spell, but instead modifies the Pact of Malacodor ability. The function remains the same.
P.S. Могли бы и пораньше заняться до того как все ДТ разбежались. Гоха кричит что мы больше не гимпы - НЕ ВЕРЮ:mad::mad:
