Side Light Openers, Chained and Finishers have had their trajectories adjusted to better match the weapon visuals.

Side Heavy Openers and Finishers have had their trajectories adjusted to better match the weapon visuals.

Adjusted weapon trajectories for Zone Attack strikes to better match the weapon visualsĭeveloper's Comment: We're adjusting Centurion's Zone Attack to cost less Stamina as well as have better Weapon Trajectories to ensure the move is better usable in outnumbered situations.

Zone Attack now costs 9 Stamina for each Strike (down from 12).

This should let her use them more effectively.

Since this ability is gone, we can confidently give the property back at full strength.ĭeveloper's Comment: Like Kensei and Shugoki, Shaman was left open for too long when missing her Heavy Finishers, especially in group fights. With the change to Dodge Attacks, we are also now in a position to give Shugoki back their Uninterruptible Stance on Heavy Finishers they were problematic when you could chain Side Dodge Headbutts on Miss, as Shugoki was able to use them defensively, and even on a correct read their opponents were unable to punish them with Dodge Attacks.

Heavy Finishers now gain Uninterruptible Stance at 100msĭeveloper's Comment:* Similarly to Kensei, missing with Shugoki's Heavy Finishers made the hero too vulnerable, so we significantly reduced their recovery timings to make them safer in group fights.*.

Heavy Finisher Miss Recoveries are now 700ms (down from 1000ms).

Side Heavy Finisher Miss Recoveries are now 700ms (down from 1100ms)ĭeveloper's Comment:* Kensei was too vulnerable when using their Heavy Finishers with these new recoveries on miss, the hero should be able to use these attacks with more potency, especially when target swapping them.*.

Top Heavy Finisher Miss Recovery is now 700ms (down from 1300ms).

All versions of Tiger Dodge and Dragon Dodge now chain to Light and Heavy Finishers on Miss from 200ms to 300ms (instead of from 100ms to 300ms)ĭeveloper's Comment:* Tiandi has also been outperforming our expectations since their rework - we are also taking steps to lower their strengths to be less frustrating to fight against.*.

Opener Light and Heavies now chain to Light and Heavy Finishers on Miss from 200ms to 300ms (instead of from 100ms to 300ms for when locked and 100ms to 400ms when Out of Lock).

The first hit of Zone Attack now causes a Medium hit reaction (instead of a Heavy hit reaction).

Heavy Finishers now deal 28 damage (down from 30 damage).

Dragon Kick Follow-up now deals 20 damage (down from 24).

Dragon Kick Recovery on Miss is now 700ms (up from 600ms).

Top Tiger Dodge now deals 10 damage (down from 12).

Light Finishers now deal 10 damage (down from 12).

We will be keeping an eye on the hero and adjust further if necessary. One notable change we want to explain further is Shield Tackle no longer chains on Miss: as the move is fully unreactable even at the top level, there is no real need to give the move even more safety.

Adjusted Zone Attack's weapon trajectories to have less reach and fixed their start and end positionsĭeveloper's Comment: Valkyrie has consistently been outperforming our expectations since her rework, so we are taking steps to lower her strengths.

Zone Attack is now 600ms (up from 500ms).

Heavy Finishers now deal 28 damage (down from 30).

Chained Heavies now deal 26 damage (down from 27).

Shield Tackle now moves forward 0.5m less.
