I took a long break of poe and I heard ignite/flameblast got changed

Anybody care to explain or show me the patch notes of it? I failed to find them and nobody is answering me in the poe general chat

IS flameblast still as good as it was before?

From what I understand from double dipping, you could hit an enemy twice with flameblast and it would take the ignite damage from both of them, so basically a double ignite?

Sorry if I look stupid, haven't played this for ages

This is not double dipping my friend. Flameblast is fine for leveling. You might even be able to make is passable in maps, idk I never played it really. But it's certainly not breaking any power levels in Vegeta's scouter anymore.

double dipping is making your damage modifiers work twice

100%increased fire damage to increase the hit
and the same 100%increase apply again on the ignite

I managed to get to level 80 with flameblast, the ignite damage is okay but flameblast is terrible for bosses that have the least bit of attack speed since you need to hit them 20 times.

Any advice on some other strong spell? I wanna use regret orbs for my tree, really don't wanna level again.
