Patch Link	Date	Patch Name	Patch Notes
Version 20.070.1	5 October 2022	Into the Fray Patch 7	Mystic Rocks is a strong heal denial with the downside that the caster themself does not receive healing. However, since pre-applied HoTs could circumvent this downside to a degree, activating the ability will now remove all HoTs on the caster. Quarterstaff is currently underused, so its range and cast time have been improved to hit enemies more reliably and provide more utility. Vault Leap (Regular Quarterstaff): Cast Range: 13m → 15m Cast Time: 0.7s → 0.6s Mystic Rocks (Staff of Balance): Activating the ability now removes all HoTs on the caster
Version 18.040.1	6 May 2021	Call to Arms Patch 4 (Balance Patch)	Quarterstaffs The hit-and-run playstyle of Quarterstaffs in Corrupted Dungeons has been toned down, while also trying to retain their playstyles in other content. This change alone will not entirely eliminate the strategy of resetting fights in Corrupted Dungeons, but should help balance the success of Quarterstaffs in this regard. Additional further changes will be made in a future patch to address the reset meta in Corrupted Dungeons. Heavy Cleave's area was improved, making it easier to hit enemies and giving it a more unique feel. The hit delay has also been removed, making the ability strike much faster. Cartwheel (all Quarterstaffs): Move Speed Bonus: 30% → 20% Buff Duration: 5s → 3s Stun Run (all Quarterstaffs): Buff Duration: 5s → 4s Heavy Cleave (all Quarterstaffs): Adjusted the hit area into a rectangular shape that extends further Hit Delay: 0.5s → 0s Standtime: 1s → 0.5s Damage: 271 → 240 Vault Leap (regular Quarterstaff): Standtime: 0.2s → 0.6s Enemy Knockup Duration: 1s → 0.7s Cast Range: 15m → 13m Jump End Position now offset by 3m Visual fixes for jump animation on high ping
Version 18.000.1	17 March 2021	Call to Arms Update	Vault Leap (new E-slot ability on regular Quarterstaffs): Leap to the targeted position, dealing physical damage in a 5m radius. Throws all enemies into the air for 1s. Cast Time: 0.7s (uninterruptible) Cooldown: 15s Cast Range: 15m Empowered Slam (all Quarterstaffs): Now also purges any shields available on the target Hit Delay: 0.4s → 0.2s Standtime: 0.4s → 0.2s Separator (all Quarterstaffs): The ability is moved to the W-slot and now available on all Quarterstaffs Cooldown: 15s → 20s Root Duration: 2.5s → 1.6s Damage: 149.18 → 75
