Patch Notes 2024年10月15日

Introduction

An early balance patch? What gives!?
As you’ll likely remember, we had a little trouble with the console certification process for the previous update. So to help our team stay on track to deliver what’s shaping up to be a hefty update in v1.2 next month, we’re launching the v1.1.2 balance patch early!

Balance patch v1.1.2 has a slew of tweaks and changes to Heroes and Items, as well as some buffs for Towers, and more! Alongside balance changes, you can expect snazzy new skins too, including the incredible Angelic Sevarog!

Grab yourself some snacks, kick your feet up and let’s jump into the patch notes.

Angelic Sevarog [Rare]

Sevarog is arguably one of the most menacing Heroes in Predecessor - but if you don’t think he’s creepy enough yet, his Angelic Skin might change that opinion.

Executioner Murdock [Common]

A darker twist on the classic Murdock we all know and love! Kinda makes you wonder which side of the law he’s really on.

Hotrod Howitzer [Common]

Jump on to the battlefield with all guns blazing in the Hotrod Howitzer skin!

Gameplay Balance Changes

Systems Balance Changes:

Towers:

All Towers are receiving an increase to their base damages to create more risk when attempting an early game dive. Likewise, their Physical Armor Penetration is seeing an increase, further limiting the efficacy of tankier targets holding a Tower’s aggro for extended durations.

Outer Tower:

- Damage increased from 130 (+12 per Level) to 145 (+10 per Level).
- Physical Armor Penetration increased from 45% to 50%.

Inner Tower:

- Damage increased from 160 (+12 per Level) to 170 (+12 per Level).
- Physical Armor Penetration increased from 45% to 50%.

Inhibitor:

- Damage increased from 160 (+15 per Level) to 170 (+15 per Level).
- Physical Armor Penetration increased from 45% to 50%.

Utility:

Refillable Potion is seeing a small decrease to its overall healing as a match progresses, better allowing poke damage to stick, and thereby creating more opportunities for aggressive play to translate into kills.

Refillable Potion:

- Healing decreased from 105 (+15 per Level) to 105 (+12 per Level).

Hero Balance Changes

Aurora

Aurora’s access to high impact disruption tools paired with her innate elusiveness and durability allows her to possess significant threat when roaming the map or engaging in teamfights. Alongside hits to her early Durability and Movement Speed, she is receiving lower uptime on her Hard Crowd Control tools, creating further windows of downtime between her ganks and rotations.

General:

- Health decreased from 780 to 760.
- Mana Growth increased from 30 to 42.
- Movement Speed decreased from 680 to 675.

Hoarfrost [Secondary]:

- Magical Power Scaling decreased from 65% to 60%.
- Cooldown increased from 14/13.25/12.5/11.75/11 to 15/14/13/12/11.

Cryoseism [Ultimate]:

- Cooldown increased from 145/130/115 to 155/135/115.

Gameplay Balance Changes for Other Heroes

(For brevity, the specifics of the balance changes to other heroes have been omitted, but similar structured information applies for each hero's abilities and adjustments, as illustrated above.)

Item Balance Changes

Crests:

Some additional uptime is being Granted for the Warboots, allowing for more engagement windows for those Tanks looking to get into the action.

- Cooldown decreased from 90 to 75.

T2:

Both Alchemical Rod and Soul Chalice allow their users to forgo Mana restraints at a very early stage of the match, often contributing to passive play that is difficult to punish. To delay this and add some additional risk, we are increasing their cost.

- Cost increased from 1050 to 1200
- Magical Power increased from 15 to 20.

(Additional section summaries for other items, similar structured breakdown applies as illustrated.)

That’s all for now, Champions! What do you think of all the changes? Let us know on Discord or Reddit!
