This update mainly focuses on bug fixes and addressing the balance issues of the Experimental Death Knell. We plan to release more balance adjustments in the near future.
[Laser Trial] Attack Range modifier -10 → 0
[Hyper Diffraction] Attack Range modifier -30 → -25
[Rapid Reload] Missile launch interval reduced by 5s → 6s
[Magazine Expansion] Missile count per launch increased by 10 → 15
[Shield Trial] Shield value per Rank 30000 → 25000
[Wide-Area Projection] Shield value increased per Rank by 50000 → 25000
[Shield Recharge] Shield regenerates HP per second 4000 → 2000
[Shield Reboot] Reboot time 20s → 25s
Developer's Note: The shield Tech line of the Experimental Death Knell has been too strong in the past week, so we have nerfed its shield Tech line while buffing other weaker Techs.
[Wreckage Detonation] Explosion range 15 → 12, damage 125 → 115
[Field Reassembly] Cost 250 → 300
Developer's Note: Currently, we are closely monitoring the evolution of Typhoon-related tactics. What is relatively clear at this point is that some Typhoon Techs are a bit too strong, so a minor nerf is needed.
ATK 585 → 615 (+5%)
Developer's Note: After changes to its Attack Pattern, Hacker has become a bit too weak. This minor adjustment will help Hacker more effectively counter High HP Units while still maintaining its weakness against Light Units.
HP 7071 → 7425 (+5%)
ATK 1246 → 1309 (+5%)
Developer's Note: When making Vortex a starting unit, we made some nerfs to it, and it seems these nerfs might be a bit excessive. In particular, Vortex appears extremely weak against Sabertooth, and this adjustment will make Vortex perform slightly better when facing the Sabertooth.
ATK 3219 → 3058（-5%）
Developer's Note: With the addition of Vortex as a starting unit and the complete rework of the Typhoon, both the win rate and usage rate of the Phoenix have increased a lot. Therefore, we need to make a minor nerf to it.
ATK 7243 → 6881 (-5%)
Developer's Note: With the addition of Vortex as a starting unit and the complete rework of the Typhoon, both the win rate and usage rate of the Sabertooth have increased a lot. Therefore, we need to make a minor nerf to it.
[Charged Shot] Cost 150 → 100
ATK 347 → 365 (+5%)
Developer's Note: While Arclight is already slightly weaker compared to other chaff-clear units, we fixed a bug related to Arclight's [Shockwave] in this patch, which makes Arclight slightly weaker than before. So we decided to make a minor buff to it.
[Convergent Fire] Attack Range modifier +20 → +30
Developer's Note: The initial stats of Scorpion's new Tech are a bit too conservative, which resulted in a lower win rate for this Tech. Therefore, we need to slightly buff it.
[Phoenix Production] Production interval 15.6s →17.2s, Maximum production count 7 → 6
[Steel Ball Production] Production interval 8.8s → 9.7s, Maximum production count 11 → 10
[Sledgehammer Production] Production interval 6s → 6.6s, Maximum production count 17 → 14
[Armor Enhancement] Cost 400 → 350
[Photon Coating] Cost 300 → 250
[Launcher Overload] Cost 350 → 300
Developer's Note: This adjustment aims to balance the usage rates of different Techs of War Factory. We slightly nerfed the production-related Tech, and at the same time, slightly buffed other Techs. The reduction of the maximum count of production will mainly affect 2v2 and 4-Player Brawl matches, and it will have very little impact on 1v1 battles.
