Mechanics

Block

Aim: move power from the block affix to make block a defense that requires a wider source of investments and to curtail the power of certain legendary shields.

Reduced the values of the block chance affix by around 14%.
Increased the block effectiveness values on the hybrid Block Chance and Effectiveness affix by 20%.
Increased the value of the health gained on block affix by around 30% at high tiers
The Carapace Shield grants 28% block chance (from 27%).
The Ironglass Shield grants 35% block chance (from 33%), but grants 400 to 620 block effectiveness (from 430 to 630).
The Dawn shield grants 30% block chance (from 28%).

Damage Taken from Critical Strikes

With the potential to gain more than 50% less damage taken from crits by crafting the suffix onto Uniques that already had the stat, the stat is being changed to “less bonus damage taken from crits”, which naturally caps at 100%. Individual sources are being approximately doubled in value, resulting in the same effect at the standard 200% crit multi.

The Less Damage Taken from Critical Strikes suffix has been changed to Less Bonus Damage Taken from Critical Strikes and grants 30% to 100% less bonus damage taken from critical strikes (from 26% to 50% less damage taken from critical strikes).
Leviathan Carver grants 70% less bonus damage taken from critical strikes (from 35% less damage taken from critical strikes).

Shrines

The Shrine of the Ice Beetle now always summons just one ice beetle (from 1 to 2 at random).
Added The Shrine of the Frozen Hive, which summons 3 to 5 ice beetles.
Added another rarer type of shrine.

Other Changes

Changed player mouse movement when clicking off the reachable area to sometimes take you to the nearest reachable point to the target location, rather than always taking you in the exact direction that you clicked.
Increased player stun chance bonuses to 200% for melee and 100% for non-melee (from 100% for melee and 50% for non-melee).
Stunned enemies and minions no longer have their stun duration refreshed by subsequent hits that would stun them. This helps offset the player power gained by the stun chance changes above and reduces awkward long stun animations.
- This has no effect on guaranteed stuns from skills such as Warcry and Shield Bash.
Fixed a bug where Acid Flask was creating 50% more bees than intended.
- Increased the chance to create Bees that the Acid Flask idol grants to 10%-28% (from 6%-17%).
Fixed a bug where the Bees per 10 seconds idol affix would create 50% more bees than intended.
- Increased the number of Bees that the Bees per 10 seconds idol creates to 3-7 (from 2-4).
