Vault Hunter Changes

Harlowe the Gravitar

• [p]Addressed some Gravitar builds that reportedly caused performance slowdowns; they should no longer prevent UI elements from updating or Fight For Your Life sequences from completing[/p][/*]
• [p]Gravitar passive and Augment bonuses to Gun Damage now correctly apply to Ripper Heavy Weapon barrels and the Ripper Legendary Heavy Weapon Steamer; Entanglement interactions also function as designed[/p][/*]
• [p]Gravitar class mods have been adjusted to no longer roll +5 Pencils Down and push passives past their intended cap[/p][/*]

• [p]Neutron Capture now converts all Gun Damage into radiation, and now only applies to Gun Shots, and not all instances of Gun Damage.[/p][list]
• [p]Dev Note: Neutron Capture is one of the best damage scalars in the entire game, but during testing, we found that this was erroneously applying to all instances of Gun Damage and was able to scale in unanticipated ways as a result. This new change will still see Neutron Capture being one of the best (if not the best) damage scalars in the game, but the power level will be much more in line with our expectations. Additionally, since all damage from the Gun is converted into Radiation, it should have more scaling vectors for clever build crafters, and allow for meaningful boosts from Gun Damage. [/p][/*]

• [p]Flux Generator + Annihilation interaction updated so spawned grenades now scale correctly with character level[/p][/*]

Amon the Forgeknight

• [p]Shield visuals adjusted for improved clarity in combat situations[/p][/*]

• [p]Seeing Red Duration restored no longer increases per point invested, and is now 4 seconds for all ranks.[/p][/*]

• [p]Dev Note: Seeing Red was always meant to have huge damage scaling potential, but was always meant to be hard to maintain. We didn't want to nerf this passive's power, but we're making the effect harder to maintain. [/p][/*]

• [p]Scorched Kairos passive now displays consistent magazine size values for the Ordnance gadget[/p][/*]
• [p]The Forgewave no longer fires unintentionally during Glacial Rapture[/p][/*]
• [p]Projectiles no longer get stuck in the air when Forgemaster Firewall is active during the Fortress Indomita boss fight[/p][/*]
• [p]Blackout Shock Damage now properly scales with points invested[/p][/*]
• [p]Blackout is now 15% per point, down from 21% per point[/p][list]
• [p]Dev Note: After fixing the scaling of the DoT (damage over time), we found that Blackout was overperforming a bit, so we gave it a slight re-adjustment. This will still be an overall buff, now that the DoT properly scales.[/p][/*]

• [p]Visuals corrected so Forgeknight Forgeaxe no longer disappears when activating Crucible at the same time as throwing with Double-Edge[/p][/*]
• [p]Corrected animation of Crucible while climbing[/p][/*]
• [p]Raging Inferno Incendiary Damage now properly scales with points invested[/p][/*]

Rafa the Exo-Soldier

Gear

Specializations

• [p]Groundbreaker now only stores Gun, Action Skill, and Ordnance damage.[/p][list]
• [p]Dev Note: Groundbreaker was causing recursive loops that could lead to infinite damage by storing “Bonus Damage” across the board. We still want this skill to be effective, but it should not be able to scale infinitely. We’ll be monitoring Melee builds after this change to make sure they are meeting expectations, and will further adjust if necessary. This ultimately had to be fixed so we can establish a baseline before we investigate further buffs/changes.[/p][/*]
