CC skills damage nerf and GS tracking removal. Should make PvP way more enjoyable.

But doesn’t the patch drop on the 28th, and even then possibly at the very end of the day? So like, 10 days at minimum?

Excited to splash the cash on a basic QoL feature.

They aren’t really colored. There’s just a big red outline for enemy effects. It’s kind of jarring imo

Excited isn’t really the word I would use for this patch. Skeptical is more like it, trying to be optimistic. I feel like most of this patch is too much too fast. The meta they’re abruptly changing into; would have been better achieved thru a road map with a series of changes over time. So I can’t help but think that this new meta isn’t gonna last and we will see more changes.

All that being said the Battle Pass and upgrading 590 purples from OPR/Invasion/War Chests is what I am looking forward too.

^^^i hope that’s the case. I see weapon balance as a kind of science. With every change they learn more n slowly, over time, things should get closer n closer to a stable state. More frequent tweaks would of course be welcomed

Oh yea :blush: the purples into yellows is exciting. R you saving caches ?

Using a ranged weapon in expeditions!

I don’t know why they couldn’t make them gray on the ground. Instead we have this abomination

That’s a problem though imho. Trial and error is ok with some things… But not such a good idea in something like say “open heart surgery” lol. Dramatic sudden shifts in meta can be and is disenchanting for many players. So I feel it’s kinda risky.

I’m saving some chests but it’s not a major priority. It seems reasonable to believe that we will be able to upgrade anything with opr/invasion/war prefixes on them. So hopefully that logic is being applied so we can retro. I have a lot of nearly bis purps that have been taking up space for a long time. Would like to be able retro/upgrade them.

I agree. More frequent, smaller changes are better. Ags have scheduled seasonal balance changes according to their road map so hopefully that plan comes to fruition.

Look at all that healing spam, disgusting xD
