We received very positive feedback regarding the adjustments to Spawn Points and the Respawn buff, and will be implementing them in this update:
- Spawn Points no longer provide a damage buff, only damage resistance.
- Last Robot Standing: Changed Spawn Points and removed the timer from them.
- Improved the visibility of the end timer for the Battle Pass.
- “Customization” is now displayed as the seventh category in the Store.
- The Store will no longer automatically cycle through categories if a player manually switches between offers.
- Incinerator: We are applying our changes from the recent Balancing Playtest. Reworked its damage over time (DoT) effect – it now stacks when using multiple Weapons of this type, and scales with the Weapon’s base damage, improving as the Weapon is upgraded.
- Armor DoT: 7,000 per second by each Weapon at max Lvl (previously 18,000)
- Shield DoT: 1,000 (previously 3,000)
- Lighter: We are applying our changes from the recent Balancing Playtest. Redistributed area of effect (AoE) and direct damage.

- Vortex: We are applying the change from the recent Balancing Playtest. Projectiles now travel directly to the target (no longer predictive).
- Tusk: These changes were not tested in our most recent Balancing Playtest, however, they have been carefully planned, and we are confident in their necessity based on the initial feedback regarding Tusk.
- Rebalanced various values:
- Initial Projectile Speed: 12,000 (previously 38,000)

- Initial Spread Y: 5 (previously 8)

[h3]Gear[/h3]

- Level 5: 57 sec (previously 33 sec)
- Level 9: 51 sec (previously 28 sec)
- Level 13: 45 sec (previously 25 sec)
- Freeze Duration: 5 seconds (previously 6 seconds)
- Adjusted Cooldowns:
[h3]Pilot Talents[/h3]
- Bio Repair: Armor Restoration changed to 4,000 per sec (previously 2,000 per sec).
- Bullet-Catcher: Armor Bonus changed to 8% (previously 6%).
- Deflector Gizmo: Damage Reflected changed to 15% (previously 30%). Decreased the Damage Return value to 15% (previously 30%). Added a 7-second cooldown between each activation.

- Prizefighter: Armor Restoration changed to 8,000 Armor (previously 10,000 Armor). Decreased activation range to 150m (previously 200m).
- Dev Note: In addition to being highly effective, Prizefighter also turned out to be too versatile, leading us to decrease its activation range.
- Quick Reflexes: Duration changed to 15 sec (previously 5 sec).

- Siege Tower: Time to stand still changed to 3s (previously 5 sec).
