Kraken Ceiling Changes (How high Kraken can fly in combat)

  • Adjusted the flight Ceiling Kraken can reach to make it a more enjoyable experience fighting against Kraken during combat. [/*]
  • This change should keep Kraken from hovering too high in common fighting areas
  • [list]
  • Dev Insight: This is more of a general bugfix but we wanted to highlight this change. Our goal with this was to remove some of those fights where Kraken simply would just hover higher than intended during combat.[/*]

Balance Updates


In this update we had a focus on a few Hunters alongside giving Monsters a bit more space to feed on the Hunt and attack the generator. So let’s dive into what’s changed for 2.07

General

  • Distance Damage Scale [list]
  • Min distance scale decreased from 30 to 20 meters[/*]
  • Max distance scale increased from 100 to 110 meters [/*]
[/*][*]Damage Threshold
    ncreased from 50 to 60 units[/*]
[/*][*]Dev Insight
    L;DR of these changes are Hunters have to be closer and damage Monsters a bit more in order to interrupt them from feeding. The same applies for the generator to help gives Monsters a bit more [/*]
[/*][/list]

Hunters

  • Hank
  • [list]
  • Shield Burst
  • [list]
  • Self shield value reduced from 575 to 545 units[/*]
  • Self shield decay rate increased from 35 to 39 [/*]
[/*][*]Shield Projector
  • Total shield energy reduced from 600 to 570[/*]
  • Energy regeneration reduced from 100 to 90[/*]
[/*][*]Dev Insight
    ith these changes we wanted to hit the self sustain of Hank a bit and also how much he can shield with the projector during combat. We wanted to edge this back slowly to see how it changes things up, but we’ll be watching Hank closely after these two changes. [/*]
[/*][/list][/*][*]Kala
  • Shield Burst [list]
  • Team shield value increased from 500 to 550 units[/*]
[/*][*]Dev Insight:
    e’ve heard a lot of feedback from players about Kala, she has a lot of great tools but her lack of defense was hurting the whole team whenever she was picked. We’re bumping this up 10% for now to see what she may need after this change. [/*]
[/*][/list][/*][*]Cabot
  • Rail Cannon [list]
  • Reload time increased from 1.4 to 1.6 seconds[/*]
[/*][*]Dev Insight
    his reload nerf was mainly done to hit Cabot’s ability to chip at range. Also with the frequency we saw reload perks taken on Cabot we wanted to bring back his reload for 2.07. [/*]
[/*][/list][/*][*]Blitz Markov
  • Lightning Gun [list]
  • Detect angle increased from 28 to 32 degrees [/*]
[/*][*]Dev Insight
    imply put it just felt the beam would break too easily at times after the range nerf a few patches ago. We’re hoping to see Blitz make it into the gold beam a bit more with this change. [/*]
[/*][/list][/*][*]Hyde
  • Toxic Grenade [list]
  • Cooldown increased from 12 to 13 seconds[/*]
[/*][/list][/*][*]Renegade Abe
  • Lesser Defense Matrix [list]
  • Damage resistance reduced from 55% to 45%[/*]
[/*][*]Dev Insight:
    e wanted to push Abe a little further away from other Assaults. The lower damage resistance will help Monsters fight back against Renegade if he isn’t careful inside a dome fight where he is supposed to be weaker compared to others. [/*]
[/*][/list][/*][*]Quantum Caira
  • Neutron Barrier [list]
  • Decreased cooldown from 33 to 30 seconds [/*]
[/*][*]Dev Insight:
    ecided to go a bit further with Quantum buffs. This is a small timing change but we’ve got our eye on her after each week. [/*]
[/*][/list][/*][*]Slim
  • Leech Gun [list]
  • Reload time increased from 1.6 to 1.8 seconds[/*]
[/*][*]Dev Insight
    lim has been enjoying some new found strength after his recent buffs. This small reload change will help give a larger window over engagements to try and break through Slims healing. [/*]
[/*][/list][/*][*]Electro Griffin
  • The Final Lockdown [list]
  • Reload time increased from 3.0 to 3.25 seconds[/*]
[/*][*]Dev Insight
    laying ourselves and hearing feedback from players Electro was performing really well inside domes with his constant harpoon spam. We intended for him to be good with close quarters, but we wanted to bring back his harpoon reload just a bit for this update. [/*]
[/*][/list][/*][*]Perks
  • Slot 1 (Minor) Perks [list]
  • Extra Fuel Tank jetpack efficiency reduced from 5%|10%|15% 5%|7.5%|10%[/*]
[/*][*]Slot 2 (Major) Perks
    igh Energy Fuel jetpack efficiency reduced from 20%|25%|30% to 15%|20%|25% [/*]
[/*][*]Dev Insight
    ne of the hot ticket items to talk about across the whole community, was the ‘tinkerbell’ perk setup that many Hunters were running. We’re bringing this back slightly for Jetpack Fuel Efficiency to see how it changes things up with the playstyle.[/*]
