Predecessor Patch v0.3.2

Let's look ahead at Balance Patch V.0.3.2, coming this Tuesday!

Patch Notes 23 mai 2023

Summary

Hey all! Time for another balance update!

In this patch we’re continuing our work improving Mages and their itemization, along with reducing the viability of Mages running tank items. We’re also tuning some Tanks and Assassins, and looking to give Revenant some post-release love.

So what’s next? In addition to our usual monitoring of feedback and data from this patch, as well as our upcoming release of a certain pop star, our eyes are now fixed on the Carry role as the focus for our 0.4.x balance update where we will be looking to vastly improve their itemization and build paths.

MATCHMAKING IMPROVEMENTS

We’ve heard your feedback regarding matchmaking and the changes we made in patch V.0.3. With that in mind, we’re looking to make further adjustments.

◆ We’ve tightened matchmaking search parameters. Our goal as always is to increase match quality, though this change may also lead to slightly longer matchmaking times.

◆ We’ve reduced the impact of the Party modifier, hopefully leading to better quality matches across the majority of the player base. We'll continue to monitor this change.
