Balance Changes
* Remember *: The PBE is a testing grounds for new and sometimes radical changes. The changes you see below may be lacking context or other accompanying changes that didn't make it in - don't freak out.
( These are taken from air client files - will double check when server is up and going ) Kassadin Null Sphere ( Q ) mana cost decreased to 70/75/80/85/90 from 70/80/90/100/110
Null Sphere ( Q ) damage lowered to 80/115/150/185/220 from 80/130/180/230/280.
Null Sphere ( Q ) silence changed to 1.5/1.75/2/2.25/2.5 from 1/1.4/1.8/2.2/2.6
Riftwalk ( R ) tooltip now reads: "Kassadin teleports to a nearby location dealing 70/100/130 (+0.6) magic damage to surrounding enemy units. Each cast of Riftwalk adds a stack of Mana Leak for 8/8/8 seconds, causing subsequent Riftwalks to cost an additional 100.0/100.0/100.0 Mana per stack. Each enemy Champion hit by Riftwalk adds a stack of Void Surge for 8/8/8 seconds, causing subsequent Riftwalks to deal an additional 35/50/65 (+) magic damage per stack."
Damage changed to damage changed to 70/100/130 ( +.6 AP ) from 60/70/80 ( +.8 AP )
Mana cost increasing portion now named "Mana Leak"
Additional Riftwalk Stack damage now " Each enemy Champion hit by Riftwalk adds a stack of Void Surge for 8/8/8 seconds, causing subsequent Riftwalks to deal an additional 35/50/65 (+ratio missing will check in game) magic damage per stack." from 60/70/80 extra damage per stack, stacking up to 10 times. Xerath Zed
Death Mark ( R ) tooltip now reads: "Zed becomes untargetable and spawns a Living Shadow at his location. He then dashes to the target and marks them for death. After 3 seconds, the mark will trigger, dealing physical damage equal to plus 20/35/50% of all magic and physical damage dealt to the target by Zed and his shadows while the mark was active. Reactivating Death Mark during this time will cause Zed to switch positions with the Living Shadow created by Death Mark."Waiting to see this one in game - from the looks of it the only different bit is that he spawns the the shadow when he starts his ult rather than after porting to target.
