Update 2.16 - The Glacial Behemoth

2016 年 10 月 25 日

Behemoth Adaptation - Glacial Behemoth

The latest Monster adaptation is launching today, with Glacial Behemoth!
Do you feel a chill? The Hunters sure do. Check out below for a quick rundown on what Glacial Behemoth is bringing to the Hunt!
- Ice Shield - Works the opposite of Living Fortress, starts off high damage resistance at full stacks. As the Hunters deal more damage the stacks break away leaving Glacial Behemoth vulnerable once all stacks are removed.
- Killing Frost - Moderate damage ice projectile explodes with Frost that slows reload and swap speeds.
- Ice Spear - Moderate damage skillshot that impales targets if knocked back into a wall.
- Frozen Monolith - A frozen pillar erupts from the ground dealing damage and summoning a blizzard. The blizzard slows and deals damage.
- Deep Freeze - Low damage ice wave activating after melee attacks and slows Hunter movement.

Balance Updates

Dome Timer

Last week we introduced a feature to stall the Dome timer when a Monster attacks the Hunter team. While this accomplished some of our goals talking and watching a lot of our community we have some initial changes based off our players feedback to help this system feel much better to play against as a Hunter while still giving the Monster a tool to use against the Hunter team.

Damage over time Monster abilities no longer stall the Dome timer
Combat range reduced to 40 meters from 50 meters
Combat timer stall reduced to 2 seconds from 5 seconds
- This means that after dealing damage, the timer will be stalled for 2 seconds before counting down again.
- This will be reset after dealing damage to a Hunter.

Heavy Hitter Perk set

Watching a lot of the feedback over the past week with this new perk set we decided to make some initial changes to see where the new perks land for all players. We’ve stepped down their power just a bit and we’ll be watching their power over the next week. Note the Damage increase has not changed but the cooldown %’s have increased on both perks.

Brute Force (Superior)
- CD increase changed to 17%|20%|24% from 18.75%|22.5%|25%
Heavy Hitter (Major)
- Cooldown increase changed to 12%|15%|16% from 9%|12.5%|15%

Monsters can climb slowly while harpooned on a wall

Before this change a Harpoon would detach a Monster instantly while climbing a wall. Now, Monsters can continue climbing at a slower rate while harpoons are attached during wall climb.
- Currently will slow Monster climb rates by 50% on walls.
- Dev Insight: Harpoons felt way too punishing against Monsters while climbing walls. This is our first move to bring down Harpoons overall impact against Monster and remove some of those frustrating experiences falling from the top of a wall with a Harpoon in your back.

Wasteland Maggie - Balance Update

It’s been no secret that the Community didn’t think Wasteland brought much to the table compared to the other trappers. We made some AI changes to Daisy before committing her buffs but now we’ll be bringing out our first pass on Wasteland Maggie. Wasteland Daisy will no longer revive Hunters, but she’ll solely focus on dealing damage to the Monster which should help her overall DPS compared to other trappers. Let us know what you think!

Burst Pistol
- Secondary burn DPS increased to 21 from 14
Flame Harpoon
- Harpoon launch range increased to 18 meters from 15 meters
Wasteland Daisy
- No longer revives Hunters
- Will now focus on positioning herself to deal damage in combat
- Range increased to 25 meters from 15 meters
- Health increased to 1600 units from 1100
- Damage increased to 50 from 28

Quantum Caira

Neutron Barrier
- Cooldown decreased to 28 seconds from 30 seconds
Generyst™ II Field
- Cooldown decreased to 15 seconds from 16 seconds
Dev Insight
- We want to start bringing up Quantum Caira slowly and we felt these were two small buffs to help her overall performance over the course of a Dome fight.

Rogue Val

Healing Field
- Heal other increased to 40 health per second from 38 health per second

Kala

Armor Reducer
- Capacity increased to 110 units from 100 units

Bucket

Sentry Guns
- Damage per bullet increased to 9 from 7

Behemoth is Back - Update 2.10 - LIVE NOW!

2016 年 9 月 13 日

Behemoth is now released to all players

After some major tune ups, Behemoth (Bob) is now available for all players in Stage 2.

Quick run down of his changes below:
- New Passive: Living Fortress
  - Behemoth will gain stacks of damage resistance after a certain damage threshold.
  - Each stack lasts for a short time. The main goal of this is to block burst damage during combat.
  - As Behemoth gains stacks, his armor will start glowing brighter to inform players he is taking less damage.
  - Current tuning:
    - +75 Direct Damage to apply a stack.
    - 4% Damage Reduction applied per stack.
    - Stacks will expire after 4 seconds.
    - Stacks max out at 10.
- Traversal: Rocky Roll
  - Maneuverability has been increased dramatically to give Bob more control.
  - No longer blocked by wildlife.
  - Can quickly change directions while in the roll.
  - Gravity has also been increased while inside the roll.
  - No longer grants 50% damage reduction while inside the roll.
- Rockwall
  - The ability has undergone a complete code refactor to assure it will properly work when cast near Hunters.
  - Slabs will always spawn at the cursor’s location when casted.
  - Minimum cast range was decreased to allow closer casts of the Rockwall.
- Fissure
  - Improved consistency when cast near cliffs and hills.
- Lavabomb
  - Behemoth is now able to aim the ability until it is casted.
    - (Similar to how Goliath can aim rock throw)
- Tongue Grab
  - Improved overall consistency with the ability.
  - Targets within the visual effect will be grabbed unless a major portion of the target is blocked by geometry.
  - Visual effect will light up when a viable target is inside the effect radius.

Tutorials are now mandatory again

If you have not played a tutorial, this is now forced before playing a multiplayer match.
- Note: If you have not played a Co-op vs AI match there is now a 3,000 Silver Key reward for completing one match in Co-op vs AI.

Hunters

Jack

Repulsor
- Reload delay increased to 1.5 seconds from 0.5 seconds
Dev Insight: We like how strong the Repulsor feels right now but felt it needed to recharge just a bit slower to give Monsters some wiggle room during those close fights where Jack shines.

Slim

Heal burst
- Incap healing reduced to 250 from 300
Dev Insight: Simply put his incap healing was allowing Slim excel in almost every situation in combat. We wanted to give Monsters a longer chance to punish Slim once they break through his healing.

Paladin Parnell (Parnelladin)

Mutagen Shotgun
- Damage per pellet reduced to 8 from 11
- Spread reduced to 3 min 5 max from 5 min 10 max
Heal Burst
- Cooldown reduced to 15 seconds from 20 seconds
Righteous Fury
- Duration reduced to 13 seconds from 15.5
- Removed self damage when activating Righteous Fury
Generyst Rocket
- Launcher spread reduced to 1 min 6 max from 0.1 min 10 max
- Incap healing reduced to 140 from 190
Dev Insight: We wanted to move Paladin Parnell a bit away from the strong team healing and really focus on his strength of being one of the best medics at self sustain. The Mutagen Shotgun also received a damage nerf but we felt it needed to feel much more consistent in order to help Paladin recharge his heal burst cooldown faster.

Hank

Shield Projector
- Reload delay increased to 1.5 seconds from 1.2 seconds
Shield Burst
- Self shield value reduced to 500 units from 545 units
- Team shield value reduced to 450 units from 500 units
Dev Insight: Hank has been performing exceptionally well at all levels. Sporting a +60% win rate at high and low level, we felt he needed to be brought back a notch with 2.09. We are focusing mainly on the Shield Burst to bring down his overall power a bit.

Renegade Abe

Penitence
- Damage over time reduced to 17 from 19
Corrosive Grenade
- Damage over time reduced to 10 from 11
Nerve Toxin Dart
- Damage over time reduced to 28 from 30
Dev Insight: Renegade Abe has quite a lot of hidden strength. With all the utility and post-Dome damage he brings we felt he needed one more pass to see where he lands after 2.09.

Parnell

Super Soldier
- Duration to 13 seconds from 15 seconds
Dev Insight: We like that Parnell is a strong pick right now but felt he was just getting too much value out of the duration of Super Soldier.

Kala

Shield Burst
- Other Support shield increased to 600 from 550
- Self Support shield increased to 600 from 500
Dev Insight: Kala is an interesting character that we’ve had our eyes on for the last few weeks. We’re starting slow here with some Shield Burst changes to help her survive through Dome fights for longer.

Solo Matchmaking Bonus

Rank 2 Solo Player bonus (2 party / 2 Solo)
- Max Health bonus to 12% from 15%
- Strafing Speed bonus decreased to 6% from 8%
- Movement Speed bonus 6% from 8%

Rank 3 Solo Bonus ( All Solo Players)
- Health bonus decreased to 20% from 25%

Deepest Dark

All damage from minions and Monsters up 7.5%

Kraken Ceiling Changes (How high Kraken can fly in combat)

Adjusted the flight Ceiling Kraken can reach to make it a more enjoyable experience fighting against Kraken during combat.
This change should keep Kraken from hovering too high in common fighting areas
- Dev Insight: This is more of a general bugfix but we wanted to highlight this change. Our goal with this was to remove some of those fights where Kraken simply would just hover higher than intended during combat.

Overpowered Game Mode Tuning

All Buffs spawn at 20 seconds now
Monster Perks
- Added minor general enhancements to monster buffs, because of how easily Hunters can out diversify the Monster.

  - Smell +15% Climb +10% Feeding Speed +10% Traversal Regen

Balance Updates

In this update we had a focus on a few Hunters alongside giving Monsters a bit more space to feed on the Hunt and attack the generator. So let’s dive into what’s changed for 2.07

General

Distance Damage Scale
- Min distance scale decreased from 30 to 20 meters
- Max distance scale increased from 100 to 110 meters
Damage Threshold
- Increased from 50 to 60 units
Dev Insight
- TL;DR of these changes are Hunters have to be closer and damage Monsters a bit more in order to interrupt them from feeding. The same applies for the generator to help gives Monsters a bit more

Hunters

Hank
- Shield Burst
  - Self shield value reduced from 575 to 545 units
  - Self shield decay rate increased from 35 to 39
- Shield Projector
  - Total shield energy reduced from 600 to 570
  - Energy regeneration reduced from 100 to 90
- Dev Insight
  - With these changes we wanted to hit the self sustain of Hank a bit and also how much he can shield with the projector during combat. We wanted to edge this back slowly to see how it changes things up, but we’ll be watching Hank closely after these two changes.
Kala
- Shield Burst
  - Team shield value increased from 500 to 550 units
- Dev Insight:
  - We’ve heard a lot of feedback from players about Kala, she has a lot of great tools but her lack of defense was hurting the whole team whenever she was picked. We’re bumping this up 10% for now to see what she may need after this change.
Cabot
- Rail Cannon
  - Reload time increased from 1.4 to 1.6 seconds
- Dev Insight
  - This reload nerf was mainly done to hit Cabot’s ability to chip at range. Also with the frequency we saw reload perks taken on Cabot we wanted to bring back his reload for 2.07.
Blitz Markov
- Lightning Gun
  - Detect angle increased from 28 to 32 degrees
- Dev Insight
  - Simply put it just felt the beam would break too easily at times after the range nerf a few patches ago. We’re hoping to see Blitz make it into the gold beam a bit more with this change.
Hyde
- Toxic Grenade
  - Cooldown increased from 12 to 13 seconds
Renegade Abe
- Lesser Defense Matrix
  - Damage resistance reduced from 55% to 45%
- Dev Insight:
  - We wanted to push Abe a little further away from other Assaults. The lower damage resistance will help Monsters fight back against Renegade if he isn’t careful inside a dome fight where he is supposed to be weaker compared to others.
Quantum Caira
- Neutron Barrier
  - Decreased cooldown from 33 to 30 seconds
- Dev Insight:
  - Decided to go a bit further with Quantum buffs. This is a small timing change but we’ve got our eye on her after each week.
Slim
- Leech Gun
  - Reload time increased from 1.6 to 1.8 seconds
- Dev Insight
  - Slim has been enjoying some new found strength after his recent buffs. This small reload change will help give a larger window over engagements to try and break through Slims healing.
Electro Griffin
- The Final Lockdown
  - Reload time increased from 3.0 to 3.25 seconds
- Dev Insight
  - Playing ourselves and hearing feedback from players Electro was performing really well inside domes with his constant harpoon spam. We intended for him to be good with close quarters, but we wanted to bring back his harpoon reload just a bit for this update.
Perks
- Slot 1 (Minor) Perks
  - Extra Fuel Tank jetpack efficiency reduced from 5%|10%|15% 5%|7.5%|10%
- Slot 2 (Major) Perks
  - High Energy Fuel jetpack efficiency reduced from 20%|25%|30% to 15%|20%|25%
- Dev Insight
  - One of the hot ticket items to talk about across the whole community, was the ‘tinkerbell’ perk setup that many Hunters were running. We’re bringing this back slightly for Jetpack Fuel Efficiency to see how it changes things up with the playstyle.

Known Issues

We are aware that when a Monster attempts to swap roles in multiplayer matches it can break lobbies. We are working towards a fix for Update 2.08

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue where Co Op matchmaking would count towards Hunter win streaks
Fixed an issue where Monarch Maggie and Blood Eagle Bucket Hunter skins were missing from the punchcard.
- These will be awarded to all players who have already unlocked these rewards.
