[ General ]
- Mid Boss HP is now fixed at the spawn time. Base HP increased from 6725 to 12500 and growth reduced from 470 to 200.
- Reworked Rejuv reward from Mid Boss. No longer buffs troopers, reduces respawn time and buffs various stats. Upon death, 3 rejuv crystals fall to the ground (4 for subsequent midboss kills). Claiming one now grants you in place revive after 3s. If you already claimed one and claim another, it'll go to an ally (priority is closest allies first, then most recent dead allies). Dying with Rejuv no longer counts as a kill/death nor gives out bounties. While you have the Rejuv buff, you gain the following: +20% Max HP, +20% Fire Rate, and +15% Spirit Damage. Gaining the buff heals you to full and lasts up to 7 minutes.
- Meleeing a mantling enemy no longer cancels their mantle, instead it applies 80% movement slow that ramps down to 20% over 2s.
- Adding a debuff that makes you climb ropes 40% slower for 4s after you've taken player damage. This debuff only exists when you're on a rope, and tapers off to 0% in the last 1s of the damage window.
- Slight reduction to the amount of turning you can do while performing a heavy melee
- Light melee base damage reduced by 20% (except for Viscous, Calico and Bebop)
- Heavy Melee cooldown increased from 0.9s to 1.0s
- Heavy Melee cooldown when missing increased from 0.9s to 1.3s
- Parried stun duration is no longer reduced by debuff resistance
- Parry bonus damage is no longer melee specific, now affects all damage types (reduced from 35% to 30%)
- Heroes now have different dash speeds (same distance, slower to get there). They are placed into 3 buckets to start, Bucket 1: +5%, Bucket 2: -5%, Bucket 3: -15%.
Bucket 1: Ivy, Haze, Holliday, Calico, Grey Talon, Paradox
Bucket 2: Seven, Mirage, Lash, Yamato, Pocket, Viscous, Vyper, Warden, Vindicta, Sinclair, Wraith, Infernus, Lady Geist
