January 23rd, 2020

Homecoming Crash Handler

  • The new Homecoming Crash Handler has been enabled.
  • If your game crashes, you will now be presented with a number of options for providing us with information to help diagnose and resolve the crash (see an example here).
  • If you are still stuck on the safe mode client it is of paramount importance that you submit crash reports for the 32-bit or 64-bit clients.
    • It is likely that this is the last major update that will support Safe Mode.
    • Please read this thread for more information relating to the discontinuation of Safe Mode.

Tanker & Brute Changes

Scaling & Stats

  • Tanker:
    • Ranged damage modifier increased from 0.5 to 0.8, Melee damage modifier increased from 0.8 to 0.95,
      • Bruise has been removed in favour of a flat damage scale increase.
    • Buff modifiers increased to match Controller values.
    • Damage buff cap increased from 400% to 500%.
  • Brute:
    • Ranged and Melee damage modifiers are now equal at 0.75.
    • Damage buff cap lowered from 775% to 700%.
  • All Brute and Tanker Epic pools now use ranged damage modifiers.
    • Note that due to the above changes, Epic Pools should see no damage change at all.

AoEs

  • Most Tanker Melee AoE powers have had their target caps increased.
    • Most cones now have a 10 target cap.
    • Most PBAoEs now have a 16 target cap.
  • Tanker now gets an inherent buff to the radius of AoE attacks and arc of cones.
    • +50% for AoEs.
    • +50% for cones.
    • Some powers are unaffected by this buff. This is noted on the power description.

  • Tanker > Titan Weapons > Arc of Destruction 5 => 10
  • Tanker > War Mace > Whirling Mace 10 => 16
  • Tanker > War Mace > Shatter 5 => 10

The following powers ignore Arc Buffs:

  • Battle Axe > Pendulum
  • Claws > Eviscerate
  • Claws > Shockwave
  • Spines > Throw Spines
  • Titan Weapons > Defensive Sweep
  • Titan Weapons > Titan Sweep
  • Titan Weapons > Arc of Destruction
  • War Mace > Crowd Control
  • All Judgement powers

The following powers ignore Radius Buffs:

  • Electric Melee > Lightning Clap
  • Electric Melee > Lightning Rod
  • Savage Melee > Savage Leap
  • Spines > Quills Radius
  • Super Strength > Hand Clap
  • Super Strength > Foot Stomp
  • Titan Weapons > Whirling Smash
  • All Judgement powers

The following powers have had their Arcs adjusted for Tankers only:

  • Broad Sword > Slice: Lowered from 130° to 90° (actually 135° after the 50% increase from Tanker inherent buff)
  • Katana > Flashing Steel: Lowered from 130° to 90° (actually 135° after the 50% increase from Tanker inherent buff)

Brute Fury Generation

  • Hitting AVs no longer gives bonus Fury, but Fury generation for attacking has been increased in a variety of ways:
  • Brute Fury generation now takes into account the cast time of the attack for successful hits.
    • Any attack slower than brawl will now generate bonus Fury if it lands a hit.
  • Brutes now get bonus fury generation in teams - the larger the team, the larger the bonus.
  • Fury now takes 10 seconds without attacking to start its accelerated decay, instead of 5 seconds.
  • The goal of these changes is to improve Fury generation in teams when the Brute is not the only brute, or is in the company of another tanking AT.

Gauntlet & PunchVoke

  • Gauntlet is now applied via a global proc.
    • Any single target power that takes endurance cost enhancements will trigger an AoE taunt.
    • Every AoE power that takes endurance cost enhancements will taunt the enemies it hit.
    • All Auras that take endurance cost enhancements will taunt the enemies they hit.
    • Radius is now the same for all attacks (10ft, 5 targets max)
    • Taunt scale is now 10% higher than the Brute's.
  • Brute PunchVoke is now also applied via a global proc.
    • Any power that either inflicts damage or takes accuracy enhancements will trigger PunchVoke.

Power Acquisition Levels To improve Tanker AoE capability during level up progression, the following powers had their acquisition levels changed:

  • Battle Axe > Whirling Axe = 20, Swoop = 28
  • Martial Arts > Dragon Tail = 20, Focus Chi = 28, Crippling Axe Kick = 35
  • Stone Melee> Tremor = 28, Hurl Boulder = 35
  • War Mace > Whirling Mace = 20, Clobber = 28

Taunt Auras

  • Brute and Tanker Ice Armor powers no longer have built-in Taunt, they are now instead covered by the inherent global proc.

Other Changes

  • The following tanker and brute powers should now accept regular Taunt Enhancements:
    • Oppressive Gloom, Cloak of Fear, Burn (note that burn patches don't taunt, only the up-front damage does.)
  • Spines: Spine Burst> No longer ignores Radius buffs.
  • Spines: Quills > Now ignore Radius buffs.
  • Burn for Brute and Tankers should also accept Taunt Sets (note that any proc on burn will not pass through to the patch.)
  • Brute > Martial Arts > Taunt / Crane Kick: Fixed incorrect power order.

Pets & Henchmen Updates

  • Mastermind pets which have been commanded to Stay or to Go To a location will hold that position and will not chase after targets or move closer to use powers that are out of range. Be aware this also means they will not move out of damage patches on their own.
  • Mastermind pets in Follow mode will now always stay within a 100' radius of their owner, regardless if they are in Defensive or Aggressive stance. Pets that are primarily ranged attackers will try to stay in the Supremacy radius.
  • The pet AI now ignores the aggro cap. This should prevent pets from standing around twiddling their thumbs in Incarnate Trials and other situations where many pets are attacking the same target.
  • Pets now give a strong preference to selecting targets that are within 50' of the pet's owner. This helps melee-oriented Mastermind pets stay in Supremacy range more often, while still allowing them to move and effectively engage targets outside the range.
  • A number of pets have been classified as "Ranged Only" pets. The AI for these pets will no longer change position in order to use melee powers such as Brawl. They still possess these powers and will use them opportunistically if a target is in range, but will not move in order to do so.
  • The pets that no longer move in to use melee attacks are:
    • Mercenaries > Soldiers
    • Mercenaries > Medic
    • Mercenaries > Spec Ops
    • Mercenaries > Commando
    • Necromancy > Lich
    • Robotics > Battle Drones
    • Robotics > Protector Bots
    • Robotics > Assault Bot
    • Thugs > Thugs
    • Thugs > Arsonist
    • Thugs > Enforcers

Powers

Combat Log

  • Combat log output has been standardized. Many powers used to report the wrong damage type and effects in the combat log, this process has fixed that, in addition to making the combat log a lot easier to parse.

Phantom Army

  • Added new customisation options for Phantom Army
    • Mirror (copy of current character costume)
    • Phantom Mirror (copy of current character costume with Phantom Army VFX)

Other

  • Pool > Teleportation > Long Range Teleport: This power now grants a popup tray power that allows a second chance at teleporting should you fail to teleport the first time. The Second Chance power will remain for 2 minutes or until you zone.
  • Lowered Weaken Resolve's -res debuff from scale -1.5 to scale -1.0.
  • Brute > Katana > Golden Dragonfly: Max targets reduced from 10 to 5
  • Scrapper > Katana > Golden Dragonfly: Max targets reduced from 10 to 5
  • Stalker > Ninja Blade > Golden Dragonfly: Max targets reduced from 10 to 5

PvP Powers Changes

  • Global Damage Procs like Hybrid Double Hit, Plant Manipulation's Toxins and Bio Armor's Offensive Adaptation should now use PvP damage formula in PvP instead of the PvE damage formula.

Misc power changes:

  • Fixed PvP damage for Archery and other Snipes that were reported to be doing too little damage in slow form.
  • Blaster > Immobilizing Dart > Should no longer have a Hold in PvP.
  • Storm Summoning > Hurricane should now apply it's -Range to everyone.
  • Storm Summoning > O2 Boost should now provide stun and sleep resistance instead of protection in PvP
  • Storm Summoning > Gale (controllers) should no longer list double mag knockbacks in PvP.
