Bug Fixes

  • Various minor fixes to Ground Strike and Death Slam effects

  • Fixed a bug where the shopping book visuals could get stuck on your hero

  • Fixed a bug where Warden's second and third abilities were swapped VO wise

  • Fixed Time Wall damaging units that don't move multiple times instead of once per walk through

  • Fixed Vindicta being able to shoot above the base wall

  • Fixed gaps where you could climb outside of the map

  • Fixed a couple of spots where Mo could get stuck between a truck and wall

  • Fixed no collision on water tower on the garage roof.

  • Fixed various abuses where you can shoot neutrals without them being able to shoot back. Neutrals now become invulnerable when they have no line of sight of you for 2 seconds.

User Interface

  • Increased the duration of the item-used popup text a bit

Map Changes

  • Added a short wall between Shrines level of the base and the Weakened Patron level

  • Moved the taxi back into the street to fix players getting stuck between the front and the building corner

  • Moved a truck away from the garage to give wide enough path for Mo & Krill

  • Added clips to both sides of the overpass on outer lanes to keep from hitting your head on the ledge when climbing

  • Added clips at outer lane T1 stairs where you could get stuck doing a roll slide

  • Added a wall between the T1 shop and the hallway on the outer lanes by the Fire House and the Chapel to prevent attackers from shooting the T1 without taking damage

  • Replaced news stand that was close to the T1 with different cover kiosk building to avoid shop confusion

Gameplay

  • Medium and Hard neutrals now spawn at 7 minutes

  • Neutrals now have 20% Spirit Resist

  • Basement neutrals now have +2 Medium neutrals and -4 Small neutrals

  • Basement neutrals are now classified as a Medium camp instead of a Small camp (for the purposes of spawn time)

  • Spirit scaling reduced by ~19% (the total effective Spirit damage is reduced by less than this, this is just the Spirit multiplier scaling portion and has largest impact on late game burst)

  • Respawn curve adjusted slightly (results in a few seconds of increased respawn time in the mid phase, same overall max respawn time)

  • Zipline Boost ability is now available at the start of the game (used to start on cooldown)

  • Shield break cooldown reduced from 80s to 60s

  • Troopers run speed increased from 10 m/s to 11 m/s

  • Medic Trooper health increased from 200 to 240
