What changed

  • REWORKLegends

    Bloodhound

    Bloodhound gets a new ultimate, Allfather's Cloak, which cloaks anyone in range with faster movement and threat vision, and the tactical now does a longer full-body scan followed by snapshot scans.

    Allfather's Cloak (Ultimate): New Ultimate: Allfather’s Cloak

    • Tracker (Passive)
    • Bloodhound can now see a red trail near fresh enemy clues to guide you to them: This is similar to the red footsteps Bloodhound would see in their previous ultimate, Beast of the Hunt.
    • Adjusted some of the black raven behavior to help them spawn more reliably, and included information about how they work to the ability description
    • White ravens can fly up to 400m (was previously 190m baseline, 380m with Raven's Flight)
    • You can now activate white ravens remotely by looking at them for a short time
    • Eye of the Allfather (Tactical)
    • Tactical now full-body scans for 3 seconds (was a 2 second full-body scan with 2 more seconds of a diamond scan)
    • After the full-body scan finishes, create 4 "snapshot" scans with 1.5s in between them
    • If a scan hits a white raven and at least one enemy, cooldown no longer partially refunds: If a scan hits a white raven and no enemies, it still refunds the full cooldown
    • Allfather's Cloak (Ultimate)
    • New Ultimate: Allfather’s Cloak
    • Throw down a device that cloaks anyone who gets within range
    • While cloaked, players also gain 20% increased movement speed and threat vision
    • Cloaking area lasts 8 seconds
    • Cloak lasts 12 seconds after leaving the area
    • Cloak breaks when taking damage, firing your weapon, or when using most abilities
    • Bloodhound’s abilities can be used without breaking cloak
    • Upgrades
    • Level 2
    • (NEW) Hidden Sight: Using the Ult refreshes your Tactical, and using your Tactical while cloaked hides the visuals effect from enemies
    • (NEW) Bird’s Eye: White ravens will split and fly to the two nearest enemies (on different squads)
    • Removed Taste of Blood, Raven's Flight buffed and integrated to base kit
    • Level 3: (NEW) True Predator: Shooting temporarily interrupts your cloak instead of breaking it

    TipCloak enables aggressive pushes with stealth and speed, while more frequent scans let you track enemies through walls constantly.

  • REWORKGame Updates

    Energy Ammo Rework

    Energy ammo boxes are gone, and each energy weapon now carries its own stockpile of a few magazines that slowly refills while you are not shooting or reloading.

    • Energy Ammo boxes removed from the game
    • Energy Weapons come with a stockpile of ammunition: Similar to the Bocek or Care Package Weapons
    • Energy Weapon Stockpile Size is comprised of multiple magazines worth of ammo
    • Each weapon comes with
    • Havoc: 3 Magazines worth of stockpile
    • Nemesis: 3 Magazines worth of stockpile
    • Devotion: 3 Magazines worth of stockpile
    • L-Star: 4 Magazines worth of stockpile
    • RE-45: 2 Magazines worth of stockpile
    • Volt: 2 Magazines worth of stockpile
    • Triple Take: 2 Magazines worth of stockpile
    • If the weapons magazine size increases, the stockpile total updates to match
    • ex. A Volt with no extended magazine has a maximum Stockpile size of 40
    • ex. A Volt with a Purple Magazine has a maximum Stockpile size of 54
    • Energy Weapons regenerate a magazines worth of ammo over 18 seconds
    • Regeneration time does not increase if your magazine size increases
    • ex. A Volt with no extended magazine attachment equipped regenerates 20 shots over 18 seconds
    • ex. A Volt with a Purple Magazine equipped regenerates 27 shots over 18 seconds
    • Regeneration pauses while shooting or reloading the weapon
    • A new HUD element has been added for energy weapons. This displays how many magazines worth of ammo you have left.

    TipEnergy guns stop competing for backpack space, so running two of them costs you no ammo slots. Fill what they free up with heals.

    30-30 Repeater [Care Package]

    The 30-30 Repeater becomes a care package weapon with more damage, faster ADS charge and reload, and swaps Dual Shell for Shattercaps, which splits hipfire shots into a pellet blast.

  • CHANGELoot & Attachments / Locked Hop-ups

    Accelerator

    The Accelerator no longer builds ultimate charge from damage; instead, knocking an enemy with the weapon gives a chunk of ultimate charge, and damage with it earns extra EVO.

    No longer gives ultimate charge from damage done with the weapon

    • Gain 15% ultimate charge on knock with the weapon: Includes a 3 second assist window
    • Gain an additional 30% EVO from damage done with the weapon

  • CHANGELegends

    Axle

    Axle's tactical slide boost is shorter, and the ultimate now stuns and displaces Axle and allies too, though allies take no damage; the new Long Haul upgrade brings back the longer slide.

    • Nitro Gate (Tactical): Max slide boost time 5 seconds → 3 seconds
    • Kickstart (Ultimate)
    • Now affects self & allies (similar to Mad Maggie, Bangalore, and Gibraltar ultimates)
    • Axle (self) gets damaged, stunned, and displaced (same as enemies)
    • Allies get stunned and displaced, but won’t take damage
    • Upgrades
    • Replace Automata with Long Haul, which brings the Tac max slide time back up to 5 seconds
    • Shuffled order
    • Lvl 2: Sliding Shooter vs Long Haul

    • G7 Scout returns to the floor (details below)
    • 30-30 Repeater enters the Care Package (details below)
    Official source
  • NERFLoot & Attachments / Weapons

    Official source
  • ROTATIONLoot & Attachments

    Gold Weapon Rotation

    Gold weapons are no longer limited to a small rotating set of guns, so gold versions of more weapons can turn up.

    Gold Weapon Rotation Removed: Gold Weapons are no longer limited to a smaller set of weapons

    TipAny weapon can appear in gold now, so a gold drop is worth checking rather than assuming it is one of a familiar few.

  • NERFLoot & Attachments / Weapons

    Hemlok Breach AR

    • Reduced damage done to Hardlight and structures by 50%
    • Damage 22 → 21

    Loba's tactical equips faster, throws farther and lands sooner, the ultimate comes back faster, and Brand New Bag now gives purple bags instead of gold ones.

    Official source
  • NEWGame Updates / Corrupted Attachments

    New High Tier Attachment Rarity

    Corrupted Attachments are a new high tier rarity, each with a bonus and a drawback and only one per gun, found rarely on the floor, in later care packages and in high tier loot spots.

  • CHANGELegends

    Rampart

    Rampart fills locked hop-up progress faster, walls have more health at lower EVO and go up faster, Sheila moves faster by default, and Combat Reserve now gives stowed reloads instead of red weapon access.

    • Modded Loader (Passive): In addition to the other benefits, she now gains locked hop-up progress 50% faster
    • Amped Cover (Tactical)
    • Wall health increased at lower EVO levels (was 400/600/800, now 600/700/800)

    • Wall deployment time reduced by 0.5s
    • Mobile Minigun "Sheila" (Ultimate): Increased base move speed while firing or spinning Sheila (was 70, now 104): This matches the previous movement speed with the Ramped Up Upgrade. Ramped Up still upgrades base move speed by the same amount as before (takes you from 104 to 139)
    • Upgrades: Level 2 Upgrade Combat Reserve no longer grants red weapon access (since those are going away). It now grants stowed reloads in addition to its other benefits.
    Official source
  • CHANGELegends

    Valkyrie

    Valkyrie's missiles deal less base damage and no longer dive straight down over tall cover, the ultimate launches lower, and the Eye In the Sky and Supersonic upgrades are weaker.

    Missile Swarm (Tactical): Base damage reduced from 25 to 15 (each additional rocket still does 3 damage)

    • Missile Swarm (Tactical)
    • Base damage reduced from 25 to 15 (each additional rocket still does 3 damage)
    • Adjust the missile’s attack angle as they approach their target: This reverts an element of her Season 27 changes, where the missiles were able to fly over tall walls or buildings and dive straight down on top of players
    • Skyward Dive (Ultimate): 15% Ult base height reduction (reverts the Afterburners Upgrade that was moved baseline in 27.0)
    • Upgrades
    • Level 2 Upgrade Eye In the Sky: Reduced through-walls scan distance to 100m (no change if you have line of sight - keeps the full 250m range)
    • Level 3 Upgrade Supersonic: Reduction in the blast-off time improvement (now reduces launch time by 40% instead of 50%)

    TipDon't lead with rocket spam for damage; reposition on ult for security instead of height.

    Alternator SMG

    The Alternator deals slightly less damage, in Double Tap too, and every magazine size holds fewer rounds.

    • Damage 19 → 18
    • Reduced damage in Double Tap to 14 per bullet (was 15)
    • Magazine Size
    • Base magazine 20 → 18
    • White magazine 24 → 20

    TipSwitch weapons sooner in fights; ammo efficiency matters more now.

  • CHANGEGame Updates / Volunteer Jumpmaster

    During Character Select

    You can now volunteer to be jumpmaster during character select; if several teammates volunteer, one is picked at random, and your choice stays on for future matches until you opt out.

    If more than one team member has Volunteered, Jumpmaster will be selected randomly from the group of Volunteers.

    • When Volunteering is active, players will see an option to ‘Opt In To Jumpmaster’.
    • Players can press the corresponding button to Volunteer at any time during Character Selection.
    • Players who have Opted In to Jumpmaster will be marked on the UI in Character Select.
    • Players who volunteer for Jumpmaster on a match will be Opted In to Jumpmaster for future matches.
    • Players can use the same button press to Opt OUT of volunteering if they have previously Opted IN.
    • If more than one team member has Volunteered, Jumpmaster will be selected randomly from the group of Volunteers.
    Official source
  • NERFLoot & Attachments / Amps

    Power Booster Amp

    The Power Booster Amp no longer gives tactical charge when you knock an enemy.

    Removed Tactical Charge granted on knock

    TipKnocking someone no longer feeds your tactical. Plan a push around the cooldown you actually have rather than a refill you expect mid-fight.

    Official source
  • NERFLoot & Attachments / Weapons

    RE-45

    The RE-45 deals slightly less damage and the purple magazine holds fewer rounds.

    • Damage 17 → 16
    • Purple magazine 27 → 24

    TipLess damage and fewer rounds compound, so expect to reload inside a fight. Line up a secondary for the follow-up rather than committing to the reload.

  • CHANGELegends

    Seer

    Seer's Home Base upgrade speeds up the tactical less inside the ultimate zone and moves to level 3, Energizing Focus moves to level 2, and the tactical's turn slow is weaker.

    Upgrades: From 7/2 Hotfix: Reduced the Home Base (Faster Tact Charge in Ult zone) Upgrade modifier to 2.5. This will make the Tactical cooldown 8 seconds instead of 5 while in the Ult zone.

    • Upgrades
    • From 7/2 Hotfix
    • Reduced the Home Base (Faster Tact Charge in Ult zone) Upgrade modifier to 2.5. This will make the Tactical cooldown 8 seconds instead of 5 while in the Ult zone.
    • Moved Home Base Upgrade to level 3
    • Moved Energizing Focus (Regen shield on tact hit) Upgrade to level 2
    • Focus of Attention (Tactical): Marked: Reduced the amount of turn slow that was being applied
    Official source
  • CHANGELoot & Attachments / Locked Hop-ups

    Turbocharger

    The Turbocharger costs more points to unlock on the Devotion, so you get it later in a match.

    Points to unlock on the Devotion 425 → 500

    TipTurbochargers are scarcer; make sure you secure one when available.

    Official source
  • NERFLoot & Attachments / Weapons

    R-99

    The R-99 deals less damage per bullet.

    Damage 13 → 12

    TipOne point per shot, so this shows up over a full magazine rather than in any single trade. Expect the R-99 to close fights slightly slower and nothing else.
