However, after four months of evaluating his use in the live game, the detonation delay seems a little too sluggish. We want to improve its feel while continuing to evaluate the reveal meta as a whole.Arc StarSticksBase stick damage lowered from 30 -> 10Shield Damage Multiplier increased from x3 -> x4 (stick on shielded enemy will now max out at 40 instead of 90)Sticking an enemy now applies a slow debuff (reverting Legacy update change)Non-SticksSlow duration is now driven by distance to the center of Arc Star detonationDev NoteArc stars excel in a lot of areas. They have high damage potential coupled with a punishing slow, and can be thrown more accurately than other ordnance types. Removing the stick slow created some degenerate play patterns and often made it hard to tell when you got stuck in the heat of battle. We’re bringing that back with a tradeoff of lower damage potential and a proximity based slow falloff in non-stick cases. These changes make stick scenarios more consistent across shield types and make arc stars less effective at area denial.Splatter RoundsRemoved increased magazine capacityDev NoteBig Maude has been an awesome drop location and a reliable source of early power for teams that win the hotdrop. However, the paintball weapons are proving to be a little too strong so we’re going to remove the increased mag size but keep the handling improvements.CraftingShotgun ammo, sniper ammo, and arrow crafting output reduced to a single stackPRIVATE MATCHObserver Mode – UI and Scoring Improvements for in-game stats menu.Observer Mode – Reduced opacity on Loba’s Back Market for map & mini-map.Observer Mode – Added toggle option to show next ring location.Added [Team] Eliminated text in kill feed for Private Match Anonymous mode.Admins now have the ability to end matches in either Observer or Player positions.Fixed issue for real time API delay after running consecutive games.New real time API events including:Shots firedKill awardedLine by line formattingUnique player IDsQUALITY OF LIFENew Custom Reticle Color SystemCustom Reticles are here!
