Upcomming Arrow changes.....

In the next patch ( 19th May ) we get some much needed adjustments.

Weapon Changes

  • Reduced Arrow IV projectile health to 25 (from 35)
  • Reduced Arrow IV damage to 12 with 6.5 splash (from 13/7.5)

You all have made your voices loud and clear about the power level of Arrow IVs and we have been seeing the same thing on our end. Our usual cadence is slow and measured changes across multiple patches to prevent overreactions or slapstick changes that don’t land where we want them to. However, given the current state of the game and the overwhelming discontent of the player base, we felt it was best to give Arrows a strong and decisive nerf (we would have preferred to do this last patch, but we didn’t have enough time to deliberate and come to a proper solution). While the railgun capacitors needed technical adjustments to the game that required time to implement, there are no holdups with the Arrows. There is a possibility that Arrows may become slightly under performing after this patch. If that is the case, we will slightly buff them in future patches.
