Temporal Flux | 45 |
Whenever you deal Arcane Damage, enemies are slowed by 30% for 2 seconds. |
"The energies of time and arcane power are jealous consorts. If you caress the one, you neglect the other at great risk." — Ennead Sage Resko
Design
This seems like a hugely useful skill for any Wizard who uses much Arcane damage. Arcane's critical strike effect is silence, so having a way to also slow enemies with that spell type would be very effective.
Synergies
No synergies with any active skills or other Wizard passives are known.
Development
Passive skills have had a long and storied history. When Diablo III debuted at the WWI 2008, skill trees included passive skills, much like in Diablo II. In 2010, it was announced that passive skills had been renamed traits and separated out from active skills. At the July 2011 Press Event, Blizzard announced that passive skills were once again in the game, replacing the traits system. When traits were changed back to passive skills in early 2011, Temporal Flux was moved directly from a low-level trait to a level 21 passive.
Beta
When the beta started in September 2011, Temporal Flux was dropped to level 10. When passives were reorganized for Beta Patch 14, Temporal Flux was moved up to level 45.
