Hello my dear friends. Aesop here with a quick correction for the patch notes.

We looked a bit more into Aya, especially Assault Rifle Aya starting with a pistol. We found that Aya has a "pistol completion rate" of 85.3%, considerably lower than Silvia's 90% and Isol's 94.2%.

This will seemingly need further analysis. As a result:

[h3]XCR Changes have been reverted[/h3]

Magnus's Fang Mace was adjusted due to data points we found in squad, so we determined it would be better to adjust Magnus's squad strength rather than the weapon. As a result:

[h3]Hammer Magnus Damage Dealt (Squad) 97% -> 95%[/h3]

We will continue to focus on and adjust balance when we discover new and unique data points that may be helpful to us in the future.

Thank you for your understanding!

Hello my friends, Aesop here with patch 0.23.2. As per usual, this is a minor patch (only the last digit has changed) so we’ll just be adjusting some balance and bug fixes. The changes will go through with server maintenance on January 12th 6PM to 11PM PST.

• Gleipnir will now be normally found under the skill amplification option.
  
• Values in the Mastery pop-ups will be correctly displayed.
  

[h2] QA Notes [/h2]

• We investigated our fix on preventing “stack skills” from not working after reconnecting. We have rolled this back and will apply it in the 0.24.0 update.
  
• Bike from Hell (R) now goes in the correct direction when activated for most cases.
  • Magnus now starts his bike in the right direction when the angle between the direction he is looking before activating and the direction he wants to go is wide. (Occasionally Bike from Hell didn’t start or was way off)
    
  • Some.. weird stuff still may occur when Magnus runs into an enemy or a wall. His bike goes in the direction where the ‘overlap’ happened. We will work on this, but skill modifications always need some time, and his Bike mechanism is rather unique.

Hello survivors of Lumia Island!

Earlier today, some players experienced an abnormal point change due to an exploit in the game. In addition to the ones responsible, another 207 players took advantage of this exploit to change their points in ranked matches.

We have since adjusted these points and have issued permanent bans to all those who abused the exploit. In addition to our first security update, we will implement greater security measures going forward.

We will do our best to avoid this from happening again.

Thank you for your continued support!
