Hunters,
Patch #2 has now been deployed to Update 1.6 on the Test server. The full details can be found below:
Gunplay
Dynamite Changes
- Increased the damage of Dynamite sticks and Waterproof Dynamite Sticks to 750 (previously 500).
Developer Note:
With this update, we are making some changes to the damage from Dynamite sticks and red barrels. This is something we have planned for a while, but with the recent changes to Bulwark, we feel now is the best opportunity to bring this change into play.
This means that you will continue to have that extra protection against Explosive Ammo, but damage from Dynamite and Red barrels will remain as useful and deadly as they were before the Bulwark change. The kill range for explosions (from barrels and dynamite) has slightly increased while the damage radius remains unchanged.
Full Metal Jacket
- Increased the range of the medium FMJ ammo by roughly 10%.
Medium Ammo
- Increased the Effective Range tied to Medium Ammo rifles by around 10-15% depending on the weapon. More info can be found under the weapons details.
Veterli 71 Karbiner
- Effective range of the Vetterli 71 Karbiner increased to 203m (previously 167m).
World
Red Barrels
- Increased the damage of the Red Barrels to 750 (previously 500).
