PoE Patch Notes: 3.16.0d

Scourge Improvements

Scourged items can no longer generate downsides that directly counteract their upside. An example of this is an item that has “Added Physical Damage”, but cannot generate “Deal no Physical Damage” as a negative.
To better reflect the functionality of Scourged Map, the description has been updated. Scourged Map modifies turn into Nightmare when you kill a rare or unique enemy. This modifier now grants you more Blood for killing enemies on Maps.
Scourged Map modifier, which causes you to enter Nightmare when you reach maximum Blood, now has a slight drain on Blood. However, the Blood loss from Killing a Scourge Monster is now 0.4% (previously 0.5%). You will also lose all Blood if you move out of Nightmare.
Scourged Maps that transform into Nightmare upon reaching maximum Blood cannot teleport you to an Incursion after you have shifted out of Nightmare.

Other Improvements

The damage to the Delve Spider Flicker Straike skill has been decreased.
The damage caused by exploding pods during the Stagnation Map boss battle has been reduced
The cost for the Rank 1 Defences Crafting bench options is now 4 Orbs. Transmutation was previously 6 Orbs. Alteration.
The Siren Weapon Microtransaction, which can be found in the shop, has been renamed Trident Weapon.
