BALANCING

DOKKAEBI

Introducing a cooldown will limit the ability to chain activations in quick succession, reducing constant pressure on Defenders. This change creates more defined engagement windows, giving Defenders additional opportunities to reposition between uses. It also reinforces the importance of timing and coordination for Dokkaebi players.JEGEO PAYLOAD

  • Cooldown: 7 seconds.

REFINEMENT CHANGES

These are small adjustments that don’t aim to alter an Operator’s overall power level or flexibility. Instead, they focus on polishing gameplay details, improving consistency, and enhancing quality-of-life without shifting the meta. Our goal is to maintain a steady stream of these refinements alongside major updates, helping the game evolve and improve at a constant pace.

SENS

A small boost to Sens battery will allow them to be more flexible around the R.O.U. Projector System.R.O.U. PROJECTOR SYSTEM

  • Battery duration increased to 15 seconds (was 13 seconds).

IQ

This change aims to give IQ more comfort while using her Electronics Detector.ELECTRONICS DETECTOR

  • Range increased to 22 meters (was 20 meters).

ASH

Deploying breaching rounds will now require less precision thanks to the extra range.BREACHING ROUND

  • Increased Breaching Round explosive damage range to 2.2m (from 2m).

FINKA

This change aims to make Finka more reliable. Charges will be available faster, allowing her to give better coverage to the team.ADRENAL SURGE

  • Reduced ability cooldown to 18 seconds (was 20 seconds).

THATCHER

Thatcher’s EMP radius is already in a healthy spot, but grouping multiple gadgets into a single throw can sometimes require awkward positioning. This change is intended to make that interaction more comfortable and consistent, without increasing Thatcher’s overall power.E.G.S. DISRUPTOR

  • Increased effect radius to 1.85 meters (was 1.75 meters).

THORN

In Y10S4.2, Thorn received a set of changes that significantly increased her win rate and presence. With this update, we are introducing a small adjustment aimed at trimming her power level by reducing the punishment for surviving Razorbloom Shells, making successful escapes slightly more forgiving.RAZORBLOOM SHELL

  • Limping effect applied after hit reduced to 10 seconds (was 15 seconds).

SC3000K

Zero’s weapon is already in a healthy state, but we are slightly smoothing its recoil. This set of changes is intended to improve recoil consistency and comfort across all input types, without affecting the weapon’s overall effectiveness.RECOIL – [M&K & CONTROLLER]

  • Horizontal: Smoother horizontal recoil on all burst stages.

BULLET PROOF CAMERA

Opportunities to use the Bulletproof Camera’s EMP Dart are limited, so we want each activation to feel more impactful. This small improvement is intended to make it easier to hit enemy electronics.EMP Dart

  • Increase EMP Dart Explosion Range to 0.75m (was 0.55m)
