Hunters, welcome to Post Malone’s Murder Circus Encore! Don't buy a ticket, there's no need in this place. Just watch your back as we cut to the chase!
Check out the Update 2.6 Patch Notes and the Event description below.
Return of the Murder Circus
No one knows the Murder Circus' dangers better than the former Ringmaster, Post Malone. Now known only as The Disciple of Death, he’s become a deadlier Hunter than ever. If the Murder Circus appears again, he intends to annihilate it. And he isn’t the only one. Former clown Giggles is in mourning for the life she lost when the circus was Corrupted. Mad with grief, she gathers a new group of performer Hunters to fight it. If they destroy the Corrupted circus once and for all, maybe they can start something new.
Ursa Mortis
Ursa Mortis is back and fiercer than ever. Two-headed bear monstrosity with increased health and damage.
- Ursa Mortis can now break through the fence of the Circus while chasing players.
- Cannot be knocked down by explosives.
- Triggers traps with roar attacks.
Reworked Shredder
The Shredder returns as a reworked Scarce Weapon, once again only found at the circus. The changes aim to reduce its overall power and convenience, helping it to better fit into the arsenal.
- The bounce adjustment has been removed, meaning that the blades will never try to target players or AI [list]
- Instead, the bounce is solely decided based on physics.
[*] The weapon now needs to be manually charged after each shot instead of auto-charging.
- This means that the rate of fire has been reduced significantly.
[*] It is no longer auto charged on equip.
[*] The loaded blade will no longer spin forever; instead, it will now spin down after some time, meaning it will need to be recharged to keep it useable.
- It can be recharged by pressing the ‘X’ on keyboard or ‘D-pad Up’ on controller.
[*] Unequipping the weapon will no longer stop the blade from spinning, instead it will continue to spin for a set duration while it's on your back.
- This means that it can be ready to fire quicker from unequip than the previous version if the user keeps it charged.
[*] The blade projectiles can no longer pierce Hunters and AI.
- They will now stick into bodies like Bolts and Arrows.
[/list]
Event Traits
The Troupes also make a return with the circus, with each Troupe having a unique Trait available to it for a Pledge Mark cost. This time though, players can pledge to as many Troupes as they wish as long as they can pay the relevant Pledge Mark costs. Troupes and their Traits include:
- The Knifethrower Troupe- Blademancer (2 PMs): While using Dark Sight, retriable ammo in front of you returns automatically to your inventory. (100m range)
- The Mystic Troupe – Communion (1 PM) : While using Dark Sight, temporarily lower your Max HP by 15 to heal your teammate 75 HP and remove their negative status effects. (25m range)
- The Trickshooter Troupe - Crack shot (1 PM) : Reduce sway for weapons and increase zoom level in iron sights for rifles and pistols with stocks. Excludes shotguns and sawn-off variants.
- The Strongman Troupe – Bruiser (1PM) : Reduces melee stamina consumption and greatly reduces flinching when taking damage.
- The Ringmaster Troupe - Corpse Seer (2PMs) : Receive Dark Sight Boost when looting downed Hunters.
High Striker
- Added the new High Striker booth for players to test their strength. Gives a variable number of Event Points depending on melee damage dealt.
- The Score is shared over all the High Strikers found in the Mission
Player Profile Customization
With Update 2.6, we’re introducing a new way to customize your profile and display your achievements: Profile Cards.
Player Profile Cards display:
- An avatar, typically showing a Hunter or monster.
- Up to 3 badges, showcasing mastery of specific items or in-game progression.
- Up to 3 stat trackers, allowing you to display various stats from kills with your favorite items and Hunter, bounty earned, and more. Stats display primarily Bounty Hunt and Bounty Clash statistics.
- A title that displays mastery of specific items, nicknames, or achievements.
- A cosmetic frame.
Most rewards for Player Profile Cards are earned through progression and gameplay, while some are tied to Events and/or Story Challenges, and some can be purchased. Most stats and progression tied to the Player Cards are starting from scratch, and are not retroactively unlocked, with a few exceptions for stats that tracked before Update 2.6.
These cards appear anywhere you’d previously be able to see players’ profiles and stats—the Death screen, Last Mission screen, by clicking on your teammates in the lobby. Additionally, your team’s cards will be shown during the “Match Found” sequence in the lobby.
Player profiles can be customized through the reworked career tab, alongside Story Challenges.
Story Challenges
Story Challenges is a new feature providing players with a completely new way of learning about the game’s lore, the story of its Hunters, and earning valuable rewards. Story Challenges are structured into Chapters which each contain a set of thematical challenges—by completing these, the player will earn valuable rewards and unveil the story one part at a time.
You can find this new feature in the newly updated Challenges screen which now includes both Weekly and Story Challenges. Update 2.6 will feature the two following Story Challenges upon release:
On the Winds of Midwinter (Premium, Time-limited)
