I’ve tested this internally, and it’s just the visuals that become smaller-- Maelstrom still hits enemies in the same area.

I did not notice any change in damage after taking Cyclone, and Orchirian’s Petals increased damage for me. Could you link a screenshot of your Maelstrom tree, and mention any other uniques you have?

I just fixed the VFX portion of this, let me investigate the other elements now.

I’m unable to reproduce a loss of damage or other effects from the tree.

The VFX is working as intended now

I can keep an eye on this unless you manage to reproduce it.

EDIT - found something. Investigating.

Shattered Heavens was the offender. It was providing significantly more damage than intended.

Thanks!
