BLIZZARD OCTOBER 1 NOTESOfficial

October 1 Beta changes for Rogue

Official Beta announcement · Blizzard’s October 1 development notes

Expose Armor missing no longer removes all combo points.

Subtlety Setup now adds combo points to the current target only when that same target caused the dodge or spell resist.

These are gameplay fixes, not an announced new talent tree.

The live Beta level cap is 30. The talent structure was reconciled through 1.60.1.70291; 21-point Level 30 routes are editorial allocations. Rank descriptions retain their separate community transcription evidence, and point-order rules remain derived assumptions.

Level 20 stages of the reviewed tree

Each route spends eleven points in the current reviewed tree. These are early stages, not the Level 30 endpoint. Choose the matching Level 20 calculator mode to inspect them.

All 139 rank descriptions are adapted from Talents Forever (CC BY 4.0, https://talentsforever.com), with community verification. The export resolves tooltip values at Level 60; it does not rescale them to the selected level or simulate damage. Level 30 examples spend 21 points; the existing Level 20 page uses eleven-point stages of this reviewed tree. One point per level from 10, five points per tier, full-rank prerequisites and the editorial point order remain derived planning assumptions. Original 69913 saves remain historical records and are not partially migrated into a changed allocation.
