Season 10 - Sep 2026
Weaker Terror CapeE debuff, less area healing
- In Cloak form, reduce the Vulnerable effect applied to enemies hit by Terror Cape from 28% to 20%.
- In Dagger form, reduce the area healing provided after a Lightforce DaggerLMB hits from 25 to 20.
- When selecting the Team-Up with Luna Snow, reduce Frozen Haven ice shield duration from 2.5s to 2s.
Enemies hit by Terror Cape are now 20% Vulnerable instead of 28%, and Dagger heals 20 around a hit instead of 25.
FIX
Season 10 - Sep 2026
Cloak & Dagger's Laggy Veil fixed
Cloak & Dagger's Laggy Veil: Fixed an issue where casting abilities might suffer a delayed response after switching forms while using the Oblivion Shroud Team-Up. The duo of light and dark is back in perfect sync, no more hesitation when stepping out of the shadows!
FIX
Season 9.5 - Aug 2026
Self-freeze no longer caught by Emma Frost's ult
Cloak & Dagger would still be affected by Emma Frost's Ultimate Ability control effect after using the Frozen Haven Team-Up to freeze themselves, and that has been addressed.
The Frozen Haven self-freeze now holds against Emma Frost's ultimate instead of leaving you controlled anyway, so it is worth saving for that moment. The notes name only her ultimate, so do not assume the self-freeze clears other control effects.
FIX
Season 9.5 - Aug 2026
Terror CapeE lockout with The Hood Team-Up fixed
When selecting The Hood Team Up, Cloak would occasionally be unable to use Terror Cape, and that is fixed.
The Hood is the new hero in this same update, so this is a Team-Up many players will be selecting for the first time. Cloak keeps access to Terror Cape with it selected now, so you are not down an ability for picking it.
