We took the time to reflect on the feedback and decided to adjust their kit and talents slightly. The idea was to keep what made them fun to play without that "overpowering" effect. [/p][p]For Juliet, we first underestimated how easy it would be to perform Perfect Shots during combat situations, and thus, it resulted in a crazy outburst of power. The difficulty of balancing Criticals (with the ability of CRIT Chance becoming CRIT Damage) would make up for some wacky situations with that Hero. We believe that her power curve is now much more manageable from a balancing perspective, while still keeping Juliet extremely fierce and strong. [/p][p]The same goes for Romeo’s Love Shield talent. The Invincibility duration was too high and would lead to very strange situations. As you may remember, Romeo and Juliet were intended as multiplayer characters only, thus performing the SPECIAL required communication and synchronization. As we shifted vision with them being playable in solo as well, there were no more challenges behind the SPECIAL ability. Romeo saw multiple buffs in its kit as well, as it was sometimes perceived as too demanding compared to Juliet. We hope to encourage players to experiment more with his playstyle of quick attacks and fast retreat. [/p][p]We also upped many other talents, specifically those relying on the TRAIT of the characters. For the same reason that they can work solo now, those talents needed to be better adjusted; it’s all more powerful now![/p][p][/p]
