Survival Attunement - Patch 1.10

[h2]Welcome to Beat the Machine: Rebooted patch 1.10. In this patch we investigated the survival mode and wanted to make our second game-mode feel more like our first game-mode. This includes some fixes along with the Survival Attunement. Our changes to survival mode give players more options early and allow for players to scale into more levels a bit easier. Stay tuned for next patch that will shake up the skill tree a little bit.[/h2]

[h3]Shell Shield:
[/h3]Shell shield is the go-to pick for scaling into the later levels. Right now, Shell Shield is a little bit too powerful when compared to its counterparts of System Restore and Defensive Protocol. This small nerf should make Shell Shield remain as a great later game tool but makes the other choices stronger earlier on.
• Stat Armor granted reduced from 6 to 4.

[h3]Fire Flare:[/h3]
Fire Flare is lacking in both pick rate and win rate throughout Beat the Machine: Rebooted. We’re giving it a nudge up to allow for more builds to succeed with this firework display.
• Cooldown lowered from 22 to 20.
• Reminder Note: Killing enemies still reduces this cooldown by 0.5 seconds.

[h3]Rocket Mayhem:[/h3]
Rocket Mayhem had a nasty bug that was causing it to take out bullets fired from enemies. We also noticed that sometimes spawning Rocket Mayhem when a bullet was just out of range would sometimes make you take damage. We’re removing the bug and giving a compensation buff since the latter bug was happening very rarely. Overall, we expect Rocket Mayhem to stay a strong choice in the Power Tree.
