0.16 Hotfix - Balance Changes
[p]We've deployed a hotfix for Update .16 to address some balance issues between a few Eternal Item Sets. This update won’t require any downtime, you’ll be prompted to update between matches. [/p][p]We’ve received feedback that Rynshi and our two New Eternals, Penelope and Tsu'bo, feel too strong compared to other item sets. This is particularly true when these pieces are used together like in the ‘Tsu-shi’ build that combines pieces from both Rynshi and Tsu'bo to leverage their set bonuses. [/p][p]Part of what’s fun about Arkheron is being able to make a series of choices around which items you pick up and how they combine. A small collection of strong items limits those choices, and your match outcome becomes ‘did I get those items or not’. As such, we’re reducing the overall power of these three Eternal Sets in the following ways: [/p][p][/p][p]Penelope’s Looking Glass[/p]
