Updates to the following Sorcerer Spells are now live!

701 Blood Burst (https://gswiki.play.net/Blood_Burst_(701))

Tenebrous Tether is a concentration spell, which will stay active for a set amount of time as long as the caster does not take other actions.
While Tethered, the target is Rooted.
While Tethered, casts of 710, 716, 718 on the target will trigger twice as fast.
If the Tethered target is killed while under the effect, any remaining effects of 710, 716, 718 on the target will transfer to another target in the room.

710 Energy Maelstrom (https://gswiki.play.net/Energy_Maelstrom_(710))

Spell has been re-written to use SMRv2 for attack resolution.
Storm start-up time is now at flat 2 seconds.
Time between damage cycles has been reduced to 2 seconds for focused version and 5s for area version.
Training 50 ranks in Elemental Lores now applies the Momentum of the Tempest Buff.

716 Pestilence (https://gswiki.play.net/Pestilence_(716))

Time between damage cycles has been lowered to 2 seconds.
Training in Necromancy Lore now provides a chance for Pestilence to spread to other targets in the room.

718 Torment (https://gswiki.play.net/Torment_(718))

Spell now does an initial damage cycle if successful on cast.
Time between damage cycles has been reduced to 2 seconds.
Backlash to the caster has been removed.
Target TD modification to lower TD for each Affliction and Negative status condition on the target.
Training 25 ranks of Demonology now grants the Quickened Misery buff.
