it used to be that certain status effects (from abilities) are not applied if the ability is blocked by physical/magic armour. There was a perk to enable status effects to work even in that condition.

Yes, that is also what I remember.

The new update made it so that status effects will be applied even on having armour

What? Why would they do that, doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. Sorry to hear it.

I remember it coming out with touch/tablet support or something.
Never tried it though, so there might have been a toggle to revert.

On steam you can downgrade via beta branch selection

Btw, I tried to find more info about this but found nothing, neither discussions about the Torturer talent being useless now, nor anything in the notes of the latest patches, which is weird considering that it would be a significant mechanics change. Do you still remember what patch it was? I would really like to read up on / confirm it.

I myself tried to find a related article when I was replying earlier. Couldn't find anything.

I remember the news of the armour mechanics changes being a part of the announcement for Tablets, Switch et c. so I tried in that direction.

Maybe the fans hated the idea so much that they didn't go ahead with the announced change? And maybe that was just a pre-release announcement which I'm unable to find any-more.
