BALANCING
LION REWORK

Reduced the ability warning to 1.5 seconds (from 3 seconds).
Reduced the scanning to 2 seconds (from 4 seconds).
Replaced the scan outline by a red ping debuff.
Increased the number of charges to 3 (from 2 charges).
Reduced the ability cooldown to 15 seconds (from 27 seconds).
Vigil's ability ERC7's cloak makes him immune to Lion's scan.

With more of a focus on intel gathering, now this predator has to play smart to catch his prey. Check out the Designers Notes to learn more.

CAPITÃO V2

Dart fire damage per tick reduced to 12 (from 19/tick).
Dart fire AOE size increased and now takes 2 seconds to reach max size.
Arrows now follow a straight trajectory until 10 meters. Past 10 meters, there is an arrow trajectory falloff due to gravity.

Adjustments to his AOE damage will now emphasize skill and not blind luck.

Enjoy the breather!

KAID

AUGA3 damage increased to 33 (up from 27).
Remove a magazine from TCSG12 Shotgun to reduce total ammunition to 51 (down from 61).

Now the commander has a few choices to make.

Replaced Claymore with 3x Stun Grenades in Nomads loadout.
