Early Access Patch V0.19

Introduction

Greetings Champions! 

V0.19 is here and with it comes our latest defensive powerhouse of a Hero, Terra!

Terra excels at sticking around, shrugging off damage and crowd control effects like it's nothing, before hitting back seriously hard.

It's not just Terra in the spotlight this week though, as our stores are jam-packed full of savings thanks to our Summer Skin Sale (which handily coincides with Steam's own Summer Sale). On top of this our gameplay team have been ridiculously busy addressing a number of balance changes and tweaks following on from our previous major balance updates.

There's no major new features in this update, but Ranked Mode continues as ever each week with the current opening times being Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. This availability is being expanded each week, but keep an eye out for a separate blog discussing this topic and more later next week.

Right, let's bring it back to the here and now and Highland Hurl ourselves into this week's patch notes!

Gameplay Balance Changes

Overview:

• Jungle XP increased in the Mid-game.

• Jungle Objectives gain additional Physical Armor.

• Critical Strike Damage increased from 150% to 155%.

• All Heroes gain additional Physical Armor Growth.

• Outlier Hero Adjustments, including Grim.exe, Muriel, Gideon, and more.

• Further On-Hit Item adjustments.

• A general reduction in damage for various Item effects.

• Frontline Support Item stat increases.

• And more…!

General:

Minions:

Minion AI improvements are planned for the future which will help resolve many of the frustrating interactions that can occur when interacting with them. In the meantime, balance tuning of Minion vs. Minion damage is ongoing with the goal of further improving a wave’s ability to bounce back and forth as naturally and intuitively as possible. 

Jungle:

Objectives

Objectives such as Fangtooth and Orb Prime can be slain too quickly, resulting in a reduction of the amount of fights that can naturally occur around these objectives, often rewarding the team with initial positioning too heavily as they melt through the objective. As a result, they are seeing increases to their Physical Armor, ensuring they stay alive for a few extra seconds, giving more time for the opposing team to counter-engage and attempt a steal.

Buffs

Camps

All Common Camps have received XP increases, starting from approximately 7m onwards. This is to better allow Junglers to keep up in experience during the mid-game when farming their Camps efficiently as Junglers have a tendency to fall too far behind in experience and be overly reliant on successful ganks to not fall behind.

Hero Balance

General:

General Time To Kill (TTK) has proven too fast in many scenarios, especially in the case of Physical Damage output from the likes of Carries and Bruisers. While further balance adjustments to the damage offered by Heroes and Items are ongoing, to help offset this we’re once again increasing the amount of Physical Armor Heroes possessed when levelling up, better bringing us to a happy medium where punishes can still occur should an opponent step out of position, but not to the extent they blow up with little room to react.

• All Melee Heroes Have gained 0.35 additional Physical Armor Growth

• All Ranged Heroes have gained 0.25 additional Physical Armor Growth.

Argus currently tends to find more success in the Support Role, with his Dread Nova offering more than enough damage and utility to unfairly bully our enemy Duos. As a result, Dread Nova is seeing a reduction in efficacy, while Particle Shredder is gaining further Damage increases, better allowing the Dwarf to take trades and keep pace in Mid.

Aurora’s ability to build durable and still dish out heavy damage when paired with her having the faster Jungle Clear among the roster allows for her to navigate the map with ease and possess too much disruptive presence in fights. While further changes are likely needed, for now Aurora is seeing a reduction to her base damage and ability uptime, further slowing down her ability to run over the map and burst through the backline.

Countess has a difficult time surviving in the early game, especially in Midlane where she can be aggressively poked out with ease. Some additional trade potential and sustain is being offered to better allow her to weather the storm in the early game and give her a more consistent curve when looking to come online in the mid-game. 

Crunch is receiving some hitbox adjustments to his Right Crunch, with the default version gaining some additional range top better match hit Basic Attack range, and the Empowered version seeing a reduction in range to reduce the frequency that he uppercuts you from unnatural distances.

Some additional Attack Speed is being offered to Drongo to improve his presence in the early-game, while making him a little less reliant on rushing an Attack Speed item first.

Feng Mao’s ability to secure a snowball due to his early game strength frequently leads to game states where he becomes out of control. Once this occurs, not only does he possess a significant damage threat, but he becomes incredibly difficult to catch out due to his mobility. As a result, Feng is receiving further decreases to his laning strength with a reduction to his Safeguard’s shielding, while no longer receiving as much of a cooldown refund on Reaping Dash, better allowing him to be punished if he should dash in carelessly.

Gideon has served as arguably the best all-around Mage for quite some time now, possessing both strong laning presence alongside incredible teamfight potential. On top of this, ever since we moved Gideon’s Black Hole over to its new instant-activation functionality, his ability to lock down opponents in skirmishes and teamfights improved as the Pull became overly reliable, further reinforcing his strength. To combat this, Gideon is seeing further reductions in his early Damage output and Mana Regen, alongside his Black Hole seeing a reduction in uptime and Pull Strength, allowing for a better chance of escape by his foes.

Let’s not beat about the bush here - Grim.exe is too strong. Not only are they able to bully out their opponents in the lane and never run low on Mana, but their damage output in the late-game also skyrockets, easily able to shred through any opponent. A range of nerfs are occurring to bring them back to parity, with less upfront damage on many of their abilities, a reduction in the overall Mana Restore and Scaling of their Assault Mode, alongside an increase to the cost of their Assault Mode to ensure they must think twice about their Mana consumption. 

Grux’s general laning strength and mid-game skirmish potential has proven too high as of late, bolstered further by the amount of healing offered by his Passive in extended trades. General reductions in his Healing and damage output are being seen, alongside a hit to his Ultimate’s cooldown, thus ensuring his windows of strength are fewer and that his opponents have a better chance of fighting back and bursting him down.

Howitzer tends to perform well in the higher brackets of play, possessing exceptional poking strength while still being able to keep up in wave clear. An increase to R2000 Missile’s cooldown is being given to ensure Howitzer has more of a window of downtime when looking to commit his Missile on the wave or his opponent.

Iggy’s tendency to become an unmovable object in lane while simultaneously slamming waves into his opponent leads to low interaction. Pair this with his general scaling and strength when locking down an area of the map with his Turrets and it results in very few Heroes being able to successful skirmish with him or punish his mistakes. While further changes may be needed, for now Iggy is seeing a reduction in his laning strength and waveclear, alongside general reductions in his damage output in skirmish scenarios. Alongside this his, in exchange for higher uptime, his Turrets are seeing a reduction in durability making them easier to pick off and interact with.

Kallari is receiving some improvements to her Attack Speed, better allowing her to clear Jungle camps as the match progresses.

Kira is currently one of the more performant Carries, possessing strong duelling potential in lane, alongside her damage scaling extremely well into the later stages of match. She is seeing a reduction in the damage offered by Vengeance and Mercy, better limiting her ability to blast through opponents in extended trades at all stages of a match, while also seeing a shift to Dusk’s cooldown, better differentiating it from Mercy when she decides which ability to max out first.

Kwang’s early game duelling potential allows him to stand tall as one of the best early game picks. However, he has a tendency to fall-off hard into the late-game due to his lower durability and reliance on his Sword when looking to contribute to fights with combos. To better harmonise these two extremes, Kwang is being met with a reduction in early game trading strength with less Passive Damage and Shielding, better allowing other Heroes to scrap with him, while receiving increases to his late-game durability and threat through increases scalings and uptime on his Judgement of the Heavens. 

Lt. Belica has recently struggled to find a home in the Midlane, not able to match the damage output or pressure of other Mages. While other Heroes are being changed around her, she still requires additional laning strength to ensure she can ramp up into the late-game without falling too far behind. This is being granted in 

Morigesh currently trades too successfully by simply applying a single Mark to the enemy, especially when paired with various Item effects. By reducing the raw damage scaling offered, as well as the uptime of the ability, Morigesh’s trading loops are made to be more deliberate, with less one-shot potential and more downtime for the opponent to conjure a response. 

Muriel currently overperforms in a myriad of ways: From her ability to act as a bully in lane due to her high damage, or how potent her Shields are throughout a match. Not only does this leave her feeling overly strong, but it also prevents other Heroes such as Riktor from being able to easily function against her due to pairing of offensive and defensive pressure she exerts. She is receiving a range of adjustments to bring down her strength, with reductions to her early game poke and damage output, as well as reductions to her general shielding potency, making trades against her have a higher chance at a positive outcome, and all-in attempt in the late-game have an easier time penetrating through her defensive utility.

Phase is receiving some minor changes aimed at reducing her early game potency should she engage in more long-range, passive gameplay. With increases to her Link cooldown, she will have more room to be punished should she use it carelessly. Likewise her oine-two punch poke is being reduced, reducing her laning threat unless she exposes herself at closer ranges with Basic Attacks.

Rampage has struggled to find relevance since the switchover to Six Items. This is combination of factors, including the potency of damage across the game. As damage is being stripped back further from many outlier Heroes and Item effects, Frontline Heroes such as Rampage should naturally find themselves having an easier time contributing to fights without dying too quickly. On top of this, he is also receiving some further boons to his Bould Toss and Rumble, allowing him to not just function as a wall of meat, but as a disruptive threat alongside it should he be ignored in a fight.

Revenant is another Carry struggling to find impact in many of his matches., heavily outcompeted in damage previously by many of the On-Hit Carries. With other Carries losing strength around him via nerfs and itemisation adjustments, as well as further improvements to his Attack Speed and Crit’ Damage multiplier, Revenant should have an easier time dishing out has damage and remaining a respectable threat in the 1v1 duels he favours the most.

Riktor is largely outshone by the various Enchanters among the roster, as well as struggling in alternative roles to the generally high damage output occurring within games. Similar to Rampage, with various damage sources being stripped back further, Riktor will have an easier time simply existing in matches as a durable threat. On top of this, he is receiving further Damage and Scaling improvements, better allowing him to capitalise on a Hook, or clear camps and waves in his alternative roles.

Sevarog is largely held back by his reliance on Mana to allow him to navigate through the early lane. With improvements to his general damage and Mana economy when stacking up Souls with Siphon, Sevarog should find himself having an easier time functioning in the early-game. 

Shinbi tends to get a little too durable giving the damage output and mobility she possesses, making her difficult to lock down in the later stages of a match. She is receiving some small tuning to her Passive and Shielding to ensure her overall threat in late-game scenarios is less oppressive.

Sparrow is another Carry benefitting from On-Hit itemisation and general Tank-busting ability. While the previous set of balance changes helped knock her down a peg, she still requires further reductions to her damage potential to ensure she does not unfairly blast through opponents in such a short amount of time.

Fey is receiving a small hit to her Harvest Nettles, reducing her ability to dominate certain matchups via the box in the early levels.

Wraith is receiving further improvements to the Damage potential and Scaling of his Peekaboo! and Knock, Knock!, Allowing him to stay a relevant threat in the mid-game and better deal with the bulkier targets that can easily shrug off his damage.

Zarus stands tall as an incredible threat, both in lane and in teamfights. In general, it can feel as if he lacks sufficient counterplay to many of his trading patterns, especially in the late-game where he can Cage an opponent for an extended duration and burst them down. Due to the control offered by Coliseum, its duration is being decreased, better offering a chance of survival to his target. Likewise his general durability and sustain are receiving hits, reducing the general potency of his laning while also reducing the ability for him to ramp-up and burst through targets in the later stages of a match.

Item Balance Changes

Judgement is overperformance in many Assassin builds, dealing higher than intended damage and contributing to abnormal burst scenarios. As a result, it is having its Damage Type changes to Magical, meaning Physical Penetration builds will no longer benefit it as much, while also receiving a Scaling redistribution to ensure it remains relevant, but not as oppressive. 

• Thunder Cleaver Damage Type changed from Physical to Magical.

• Thunder Cleaver Damage changed from (+120% Total Physical Power) to 70 (+40% Total Physical Power).

Attack Speed is being reduced across several Carry items due to it being overly efficient and contributing strongly to DPS curves, especially when paired with On-Hit effects. Therefore, Dust Devil is receiving a decrease in the stat in return for less Cost.

• Cost decreased from 3250 to 3150.

• Attack Speed decreased from 30% to 25%.

Less Attack Speed and a new Recipe to match its stats.

• Attack Speed decreased from 35% to 30%.

• Recipe: Sabre + RobustArbalest + Longbow

Lightning Hawk is doubling back and exchanging some of it’s attack Speed for Physical Power, better reducing Attack Speed bloat while letting it still fulfil its Physical Power quota in the formation of various builds.

• Physical Power increased from 35 to 40

• Attack Speed decreased from 30 to 25.

• [Bugfix] Havoc now correctly amplifies True Damage Abilities.

Quiver tends to burn through Melee range target’s too effectively, and often contributes to abnormal TTK scenarios when it shotguns an opponent. As a result, it’s close-range damage is taking a hit. 

• Multishot Damage changed from 15%-45% to 16%-40%.

A quick stat shift to Plasma Blade, blistering it’s Power stats in exchange for less Attack Speed.

• Physical Power increased from 25 to 30.

• Magical Power increased from 40 to 45.

• Attack Speed decreased from 35% to 30%.

Sky Splitter has been one of the main contributors to excessive Anti-Tank gameplay, while also serving as an all-around strong choice. Once again it is seeing a reduction in Rend’s damage output, better allowing bulkier Target’s to survive its threat and reducing the overall spike it provides when paired with Stormbreaker. 

• Rend Current Health Damage decreased 4% to 3.5%.

Stormbreaker is once again taking a hit to its Attack Speed. This change alongside the changes to Sky Splitter and baseline Critical Strike Damage will have Carries less likely to invest in On-Hit builds that should otherwise be suboptimal for their kits.

• Attack Speed decreased from 30% to 25%.

Similar to Lightning Hawk, less Attack Speed, more Power. 

• Physical Power increased from 25 to 30.

• Attack Speed decreased from 30% to 25%.

With the increases to Physical Armor growths, Vanquisher is receiving a small increase to its Physical Penetration to offset it slightly and still feel relevant as a burst option. 

• Physical Penetration increased from 8 to 9.

Envy tends to contribute to abnormal damage spikes when it is acquired and is receiving a reduction in Physical Penetration as a result.

• Physical Penetration decreased from 8 to 7.

Similar to Vanquisher, Malady is gaining an additional point of Physical Penetration to ensure Assassins are not too heavily impacted by the Physical Armor Growth increases. 

• Physical Penetration increased from 6 to 7.

Infernum has continued to contribute to faster TTK scenarios against Tanks and is once again seeing a reduction in its damage output.

• Cinder Bonus Physical Power Scaling decreased from 1.5% to 1.25%.

• Furnace Bonus Cinder Damage decreased from 0.75% to 0.5%.

Once again, another Penetration increase to offset some of the Growth changes in those scenarios Mesmer is required.

• Physical Penetration increased from 7 to 8.

Omen struggles to find its place in many builds currently, not offering enough Cooldown reducing effects while simultaneously struggling on the damage front. For now, Omen is receiving some general stat increases, improving its efficiency and making it a more desirable pickup when considering options. 

• Cost increased from 3050 to 3100.

• Physical Power increased from 40 to 45.

• Physical Penetration increased from 7 to 8.

Bonesaw possessing Tenacity allowed for strong build combinations with the likes of Gaia Greaves where the stat could be stacked up to 40% or even 60% with ease. This results in many scenarios where Disruptive Heroes, especially Tanks, could no longer fight them or lock them down due to the lack of efficacy of their CC and the damage output Bonesaw provides. As a result, Tenacity is being removed in exchange for more Power. 

• Physical Power increased from 25 to 35.

• 20% Tenacity Removed

• Recipe: Stone Of Strength + Banded Emerald.

Mutilator, like Sky Splitter, contributes too heavily to Anti-Tank gameplay and is also receiving a reduction in its effect. 

• Devour Max Health Damage decreased from 3% to 2.5%.

Combustion's initial damage spike when acquired contributes to excessive burst scenarios and is seeing a reduction in the Penetration and raw damage it provides. 

• Magical Penetration decreased from 8 to 7.

• Pyro Damage decreased from 60 to 50.

Some additional Health is being granted to Dreambinder, allowing it to serve as a better durability source for Magical Bruisers.

• Health increased from 300 to 350.

Noxia is another item that possesses strong burst capabilities that contributes to many of the faster TTK scenarios. It is receiving less Magical Power and a higher Cooldown to ensure its potency as a power Spike is more in-line with other options, and it’s trading patterns less frequent. 

• Magical Power decreased from 85 to 80.

• Dark Matter Cooldown increased from 8 to 10.

Prophecy currently offers too much raw On-Hit Scaling for its users in late game scenarios and is seeing a reduction as a result. 

• Magical Strikes Magical Power Scaling decreased from 22% to 20%.

Soul Binder, while incredible in theory, can be rather difficult to reliably stack. A reduction in Arcane Salvo’s cooldown is being given to offer more frequent poke windows, as well as a more reliable stacking cadence. 

• Arcane Salvo Cooldown decreased from 12 to 10.

One more increase, World Breaker is receiving another increase to its Health conversion as it continues to struggle to justify its place in many tanky builds.

• Maya Bonus Health to Magical Power increased from 4.5% to 5%.

Dawnstar, while strong in isolation, does not offer enough raw durability to the Melee Supports that use it well. More Health is being granted to further close the gap between Enchanter Supports and their Melee counterparts. 

• Health increased from 250 to 300.

Dynamo is also receiving a small increase to its Health, providing more durability to aggressive threats looking to get into the thick of the action. 

• Health increased from 275 to 300.

Everbloom has become a staple for many Enchanter builds, with its effect providing  meaningful durability to those it affects. However, in the case of Enchanter’s that wield it, it reduces the tactical option of focusing them down even if they mis-position. To rectify this, Divine Protection will no longer benefit the owner, and only their Allies, meaning the likes of Narbash and Muriel will have to be more careful with their position should the enemy team choose to focus them down.

• Divine Protection now only applies to Ally Heroes, not yourself.

Lure is also receiving some additional durability, sweetening the pot and further allowing its owners to get in the middle of a fight and survive. 

• Health increased from 350 to 400.

Hexbound is also receiving an increase to its Physical Armor, following the trend of Tank Support itemisation receiving some love. 

• Physical Armor increased from 35 to 40. 

Marshal is another source of Attack Speed in the game that is overly efficient while contributing to abnormal DPS from Carries. As a result, it also losing some of the Attack Speed its Aura offers. 

• Sheriff Attack Speed decreased from 20% to 15%.

Despite its strong Statline, Frostguard struggles to feel impactful enough as a response to fast-attacking physical threats. It is gaining some additional Physical Armor to better serve this purpose, while also receiving an increase in its Health Regeneration to make it a better response against matchups possessing heavy poke. 

• Physical Armor increased from 45 to 50.

• Base Health Regen increased from 75% to 100%.

We’re reverting the change to Tainted Guards damage, better allowing it to offset many Healing effects in the game, as many other Tainted Items do.

• Blighted Thorns Damage increased from 50 to 60.

With the increase to Critical Strikes, Warden’s is receiving an increase to its Critical Strike reduction to serve as a more relevant counter, especially in the event too many stray Carries are running around on a single team. 

• Stalwart Critical Damage Reduction increased from 12% to 15%.
