Patch 14 event After patch 13 was launched, we monitored our community in order to judge everybody's reactions.

Welcome Hello everyone and welcome to today's blog post.

We will announce the date and start showcasing everything within the next couple of weeks.

Fault's Heroes ‍One of the main questions we receive is: "New heroes when?"

We would like to confirm that yes, more heroes are coming to Fault!

GAME MECHANICS
General Starting Gold

• Starting gold has been reduced from 650 to 550.

The early game is a crucial, high-stakes phase of a MOBA that requires very key decision making and technical execution to successfully battle it out with your lane opponent. Since Fault has released, we've offered enough gold at the start of a match to allow for laners to buy 1-2 refillable health and mana potions, each with 2 charges that refresh when entering base, and this has allowed for high levels of relatively cheap sustainability during the lane phase. This has multiple implications, from allowing poor decision making and execution to have fewer repercussions (if one takes a poor trade, healing/mana regeneration is always available) to removing the strategy from choosing if more sustain through consumable or refillable potions are necessary in a given situation (especially on heroes with little to no regeneration in their kits). Due to this, we are ma... Read more

Welcome
Welcome to today's blog post!

Due to feedback and the introduction of our regular bi-weekly patches, we will be moving our weekly blog posts to a bi-weekly format alternating between patches and blog posts every week. As we schedule more and more regular content, we plan to shift around our dates to better fit our community and the content we have planned.

Lesser Helix Our pre-Prime map objective, the Lesser Helix, is set to be implemented in our next bi-weekly patch. This new objective will give our players more to consider when planning their tactics while also providing another main early objective compared to just slaying the Raptor.

The Lesser Helix grants each member of the team a 15% bonus true damage to the next attack they hit on a turret for 180 seconds, it will spawn at 8 minutes in the orb prime pit.

We are pushing a hotfix at 4 pm EST, (one hour from now).

The hotfix is to address an issue with tooltips, the raptor counter, and the smart shop in-game, servers will be down for roughly 15 minutes

Welcome Hello everyone and welcome to this week’s blog post!

Ontop of the features listed in the most recent weekly updates, such as our main menu overhaul, the team’s main priorities are focused towards our mastery and player onboarding systems. These system's such as Mastery, Hero AI, and Bot modes are crucial to have in place for our current community before we begin to grow our player base further. We will have multiple inside looks into these systems in future weekly updates as we continue to give you all an inside look into development.

Pre-Prime Objective On top of the main systems the team is working on, we are also working on more new items to add into the game along with an interesting new feature in the jungle, the lesser helix.
The Lesser helix is essentially a buff that gives each member of the team a 15% bonus true damage to the next attack they hit on a turret for 180 seconds, it will spawn at 8 minutes in the orb prime pit.
