Just "veiled" should work.
Phys monsters? You rerolling that, or nah?
SSF BTW, ran out of sextants, so just have to deal with those prox. shields.
I've noticed since War that people seem to have exceedingly poor intuition for how big sextant range already is.
Unlike threshold jewels, they only require a map to be touched rather than the center of a map to be encompassed. That accounts for part of the misunderstanding. The other part is that people are bad at distances.
I had wondered if this was because we posted the Atlas image, and not a screen shot.
Most of the Development Manifesto about Synthesis balance changes is not related to Area of Effect. There is one paragraph about it though, "Some skills that had lower areas of effect than other skills without a good reason have either had their area increased, or now gain additional radius as their gems level. Combined with new options for increasing spell area of effect, this should help these skills be more enjoyable to use. You'll find new sources of increased area of effect on the passive tree for casters. (Note that we'll be giving similar bonuses to Attack skills in the future, just not in 3.6.0.)"
So the range (basically, the visual range, that's all we really need to care about) of sextants hasn't been increased? Because Burial Chambers, Waterways, Conservatory all look significantly further than the normal sextant range. For example, here's Burial Chambers (the case this tweet is related to) with the current sextant range put over it. Assuming I haven't been trolled and this image is accurate to the current size (I did not make the image, credit to Aquagen in the discord for showing it to me and possible making it), it's not really close, there's a noticeable gap there.
Mine looks fine, and I am pretty sure the range has not increased. https://i.imgur.com/8MzWuof.png
So, the only change here is that the tool we use for laying out the Atlas was massively improved. The designer who did the layout ensured that each map had a minimum of four neighbours in Sextant distance (and therefore an be affected by five sextants).
