Legion TD 2 v2.00 Patch Notes


v2.00 Patch Notes

Posted: 26 Mar 2018 03:43 PM PDT



This is the largest patch we've done to date, so please expect some temporary bugs and imbalance.


New Atlantean Fighter




Sea Serpent (T3)
- Cost: 90 gold + 1 supply
- Health: 850 (Swift)
- Damage: 55 (Pierce)
- Attack speed (attacks per second): 0.9

- Damage: 189 (Pierce)
- Attack speed (attacks per second): 0.79
- Range: Melee

2v2 Begins

All matchmade games are now 2v2. If you missed it earlier, check out our 2v2 announcement to learn why this change is happening.

- For a few weeks, the game will be played on the current map with the right two lanes disabled. If 2v2 is fully implemented, we will create a new and improved map that is optimized for a 2v2 experience.
- You can queue for Casual games as a party of 3-4, and it will match you against each other
- You can still play 3v3 and 4v4 in Custom games

API Update

We have made significant progress made on the Developer API which will make player & game data available for community developed apps. This will make it possible to develop apps like op.gg, Dota Buff, etc. for Legion TD 2. Expect an announcement in the future.

Matchmaking Updates
- Now faster (2v2 matchmaking is significantly faster than 4v4)
- Now stricter (less likely to have unfair games)

Restrictions
- Solos/duos rated <1000 cannot match with solos/duos rated more than 300 lower
- Solos/duos rated 1000-2000 cannot match with solos/duos rated more than 200 lower
- Solos/duos rated 2000+ cannot match with solos/duos rated below 1800

Party Adjustments
- Duo: 20 + extra weight for higher rated member of party -> 50 + extra weight for higher rated member of party

Client Updates

Revamped Post-Game scores Builds tab
- Now shows fighter positions per wave, mercenaries received, and leaks



Game Updates

New Feature: Lane Markers
- It is now easier to see who a lane belongs to as well as who is attacking which lane
- More improvements to come in the future!

Pathing & Targeting
- Units are now smarter when their target dies/becomes untargetable (they now no longer attack-move to the last known location of the unit after it died/became untargetable)

Mastermind Rolls
- Fixed a bug where the rolls window sometimes never showed up (added a failsafe)
- Your rolls are now shown in chat after you select Mastermind

Pillage
- Fixed a bug where pillage would cause lag when lots of ticks happened at once

Tower Graphics
- Tall fighters in tower form no longer fade out near the bottom
- Slight performance boost

Client Performance
- Improved performance when playing multiple games (you may still need to restart the client periodically)

Lifebars & Minimap Graphics
- Fixed some glitches where lifebars appeared when they shouldn't (added some failsafe)

Unit Selection
- Fixed a bug where hovering a unit wouldn't show a semi-transparent selection circle

Camera Bookmarks
- Camera bookmarks (F1...F8) now work during the night

Automatic Muting
- Players who are server-muted are now automatically muted by all other players in-game; other players can choose to unmute at their own risk

Player Colors
- Swapped Teal and Orange to improve colorblind-friendliness in 2v2

Drake
- Now actually breathes fire (new VFX)

Game Balance

Aura Rework
- Fighter auras now affect nearby units based on where they are deployed, instead of based on their proximity during the battle



The goals of this change are to:
- Make auras more less frustrating and more intuitive
- Reduce battle RNG (even with proper positioning, aura units would sometimes be out of range of other units due to chance)
- Encourage multiple aura units (rather than having one and trying to position all other units around that aura unit)


Legion Spells

Hero
- Heroism: Affects nearby fighters during the battle -> Affects fighters that are deployed directly touching the Hero

Sorcerer
- Sorcery: Affects nearby fighters during the battle -> Affects fighters that are deployed directly touching the Sorcerer

Economy

Workers
- Gold cost: 100 -> 50
- Mythium gather rate: +1/5 seconds -> +1/10 seconds

This change allows for different openings (0, 1, and 2 worker starts) and more incremental risk-taking throughout the game.

Supply
- Supply upgrade cost: 50 + 25/level -> 40 + 20/level

King
- Health values slightly adjusted in 2v2 to have cleaner numbers
- Judgement: Mana cost: 8 -> 7

Fighters
- All base fighters now cost 1 supply and upgrades cost 1 additional supply

The goals of this change are to:
- Make supply less frustrating and more intuitive
- Reduce the average supply cost of fighters (to compensate for the higher supply cost for workers)
- Make getting "supply blocked" less punishing (it's still going to be punishing but is less likely to cost you the entire game)
