BUFF Season 10 - Sep 2026

Tougher, faster jet refill, falloff reshaped

  • Increase Regenerative Shield capacity from 100 to 125.
  • Element GunsLMB Damage Falloff: Adjust maximum Damage Falloff from 50% at 25m to 60% at 20m.
  • Increase energy regeneration speed for Rocket PropulsionSHIFT; reduce time needed to fully recharge energy from 18s to 15s.
  • Increase Blaster BarrageE damage from 75/s to 80/s.
His Element Guns now bottom out at 60% damage by 20m, where they used to reach 50% at 25m: the drop arrives sooner, but long-range shots hit harder.

REWORK Season 9 - Jul 2026

Health profile overhauled

Removed the 25 bonus health from Stellar ShiftRMB, reduced base health from 250 to 150, and added 100 regenerative shield.

You're much squishier now but have regenerative health as a safety net; use cover positioning and regeneration timing to stay alive.

NERF Season 8.5 - Jun 2026

Element GunsLMB mid-range falloff reduced

Element Guns damage falloff at 25m reduced from 65% to 50, reducing mid-range sustained damage (this does not affect his Ultimate Ability).

Your mid-range threat dropped sharply; close the gap more aggressively or rely on your ultimate for chip damage.

official notes ↗

BUFF Season 8 - May 2026

Element GunsLMB ammo increased

Element Guns ammo capacity increased from 40 to 50.

Hold positions longer without reloading and sustain duel pressure through extended teamfights.

official notes ↗

BUFF Season 6.5 - Feb 2026

Galactic LegendQ energy cost reduced

Galactic Legend's energy cost reduced from 3400 to 3100.

You build ultimate much faster; rotate ults more aggressively and contest high-value teamfights.

official notes ↗

BUFF Season 3.5 - Aug 2025

Stellar ShiftRMB grants temporary health

Using Stellar Shift now grants 25 bonus health that lasts 3 seconds before decaying to 0 over 1 second.

Stagger Stellar Shift to absorb burst damage windows; the 1-second decay window gives you time to dance away.

official notes ↗

BUFF Season 2 - Jun 2025

Element GunsLMB mid-range falloff improved

Element Guns damage falloff at 25m improved from 60% to 65%.

Your sustained poke at medium distances got sharper; lean into mid-range duels more aggressively.

official notes ↗

REWORK Season 2 - May 2025

Galactic LegendQ rebalanced

Galactic Legend's energy cost increased from 3100 to 3400, maximum target range extended from 30m to 40m, and damage falloff at 40m improved from 60% to 75%.

Your ultimate now covers much longer range with better falloff retention, but costs more - save it for fights where max distance threatens their backline.

official notes ↗

NERF Season 2 - Apr 2025

Blaster BarrageE damage and falloff adjusted

Blaster Barrage damage reduced from 80 to 75 per second, with new damage falloff starting at 4 meters and reaching 80% reduction at 8 meters.

Play closer to maintain damage; the close-range falloff makes fighting at distance significantly weaker.

official notes ↗

BUFF Season 1.5 - Feb 2025

Rocket PropulsionSHIFT energy increased

Rocket Propulsion's maximum energy increased from 1200 to 1800.

Use the extra energy to chain multiple mobility plays together and escape more frequently.
