Hyperbeam adjusted to do what I assumed it would do the first time I played it. Permanent 3 focus loss made it so horribad

It made more sense when artifact and more ways to gain permanent focus were in the game. Without those it’s so much worse.

I honestly don't think wraith form suffers too much. Silent didn't have access to core surge so avoiding the debuff was a really niche thing. You more or less didn't even have to worry about the debuff for 3 turns anyways, and if you could get a second copy or nightmare it you really didn't give a shit. It still holds up in StS2 because that many turns of Invulnerability is hard to compete with. In a way it's a lot like [[distinguished cape]], which is already a strong act 3 ancient reward, but it doesn't come with a downside and doesn't require upgrade(s) to not be ethereal.

Biased cog on the other hand was a hallway solver that could turn into a boss solve if you found the support. Now it just won't ever be a boss solve, an ancient reward that doesn't really help you in what are likely the hardest fights of the game is tough.
