Delta 316.10

Tooltip Clarification
The formatting and layout of the tooltip window has undergone a minor overhaul. You may notice a plethora of information that was not previously available or indicated - unless otherwise stated in these patch notes, no balance changes have been made to the items in the game.

• Any item that has a chance to proc on dodge, parry, block, or hit now specifies which it is.
• Items that previously did not show what sort of attacks they could trigger on, such as a variety of damage kicker crystals, are now able to show this information.
• Events on items that are nested within other events now visually show this, appearing underneath the header of the parent event.
  
  • An example of this is the Bloodied technique, wherein the 40% chance to trigger the Bloodied buff is part of the 25% chance on incoming attacks to deal reduced damage.
• The “AttuneOnEquip” section has been renamed “Attuning” and now clarifies that items will attune on use, equip, or applied.
• All abilities and weapons specify whether they are a martial or magical attack, mirroring the qualifiers on attack modifiers. Special attacks are categorized as ‘special’.
• Attack modifiers now have a new line to clarify whether or not they apply to special attacks on relevant weapons.
• Any item, spell, or ability that automatically hits now clarifies that it cannot also graze nor crit.
• Spells, abilities, and relevant items now also indicate what attribute they scale off of, not just what skill.
• Re-ordered some items in the tooltips to be more consistent and logical while remaining as close as possible to existing order.
• Special attacks that have a range of 0 now specify that they inherit the range of your equipped weapon instead.
• The dispel event has been reworded to read more clearly and reflect the new tier-based dispel system more accurately.
• Any attack modifier that is exclusive to very specific attacks or groups of attacks should now display this information. (ex: Coordinated Attacks)
• Any attack modifier that applies only to attacks using certain skills should now display this information.
• The “Self Only” range indicator has been appended with “(Melee)” to help indicate what sort of attack modifiers may apply.
• Techniques should now display how many technique slots they occupy (usually just one or zero). They also now display their effect embedded into the parent tooltip without the need for a link.
• Items that give coin now show the range of coin they can give.
• Items or abilities that teleport you now show a notice for where they will teleport you.
• Items such as costumes that change your character’s model will now indicate what you are being transformed into on their tooltip.
• Items that instantly kill monsters, such as Keys, now indicate what they do and what they will kill.
• Items or augmentations that increase threat to nearby enemies now have a line in the tooltip indicating this effect.
• Anything that gives a title now gives a small preview line of what your name will look like with the title.
• Augmentations that pause their timer on log-out now indicate this.
• Anything that is dispelled through a certain number of hits or damage now indicates what kind of damage or hits count towards this total.
• The “When Used” section is shifted downwards towards the bottom of most tooltips to avoid confusion as to what occurs when an item is used versus equipped.
