BUFF Season 10 - Sep 2026

Bleed lasts longer and hurts more

  • Increase Bleed duration stacked on enemies per Impact BeamRMB hit from 0.5s to 1s.
  • Increase Bleed damage from 0.75% to 1.2%.
  • When selecting the Team-Up with Punisher, increase Primal Punishment projectile speed from 120m/s to 150m/s.
Impact Beam bleed now stacks to twice the duration per hit, so a sustained beam is worth more than a burst tap.

FIX Season 10 - Sep 2026

Devil Dinosaur's Accidental Escort fixed

Devil Dinosaur's Accidental Escort: Addressed a quirky bug where Devil Dinosaur using Savage PredationShift to bite an enemy had a chance to glitch the poor opponent into the allied spawn room. Moon Girl gave him a stern talking-to; enemies are officially off the VIP guest list!

REWORK Season 9 - Jul 2026

Health and damage reduction improvements

  • Increase base Health from 750 to 850.
  • Increase critical hit damage reduction from 50% to 60%.
  • Increase Ultimate Energy gain reduction from 35% to 40%.
  • Remove 100 Bonus Health from Team-Up Anchor.
Much tankier with 850 base Health and 60% critical hit reduction; enemies gain 40% less Ultimate when damaging you.

NERF Season 8.5 - Jun 2026

Ability adjustments and crowd control reduction

  • Remove knock-down effect from Impact BeamRMB.
  • Increase Buddy BarrierE cooldown from 10s to 12s.
  • Reduce Bleed effect damage from 3% to 1.5% per second.
Longer Buddy Barrier cooldown (12s) and weaker Bleed (1.5%) reduce sustained pressure; Impact Beam no longer stuns.
