Patch 1.1.1 - Prehistoric Mania Battlerite |
Patch 1.1.1 - Prehistoric Mania Posted: 29 Nov 2017 12:54 AM PST Hold onto your triceratops, because we're taking a trip - back in time! Oldur has been messing with time a bit, and Chests containing ancient artifacts and dinosaurs are now popping up in the Arena. From now until December 12th complete quests to claim mighty mounts. Play 25 Casual, League, or Battlegrounds matches to claim the Peaceful Triceratops, and 65 matches for the Enraged Triceratops. Earn Prehistoric Chests by leveling up your account, or purchase them directly with battle coins in the Shop, where they're temporarily replacing Silver Chests. They guarantee at least one Rare drop and one random Prehistoric Item - similar to a Silver Chest but with a dino-y extra! If you want a higher chance at digging up nice loot, the Ancient Chest is now available for Gems. These relics will guarantee one non-duplicate Epic or Legendary Prehistoric Item. Ancient Chests can be purchased for 250 Gems, or you can purchase five at a time for 1250 Gems and receive a bonus one for free! A plethora of brand new Prehistoric items are available to loot inside these primitive chests:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- General Updates
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Champion Updates Croak Twin Strikes has long been a frequently picked rite that adds more burst potential to Croak's Leap rotations. We are smoothing that damage out over a longer period of time to increase his vulnerability while he stays on the ground, while keeping its total damage and not affecting his Orb control. Precision Leap receives another tweak to reduce its power while still giving Croak players who want more control of their mobility an option to take the rite. Battlerites
Destiny
Freya Freya's Twin Hammers cause her opponents to always live in fear of getting Incapacitated as long as they have Static. We are toning back this playstyle along with the power of her Thunderclap rites while giving her more damage options in Lightning Speed and Positive Charge. Battlerites
Iva Iva has been prevalent in defensive compositions but is struggling to find good openings for damage. This tweak to Tazer will give her more opportunities to open up enemies while offering counterplay.
Lucie
Oldur
Taya Taya has high-damage potential and significant haste uptime at the top level. We feel the haste is integral to Taya's playstyle and a core part of her kit, so instead we are addressing the power of her X-Strike first. For players that want to preserve the power of X-Strike, the damage has been moved to the Cross Cut battlerite.
Battlerites
Thorn Thorn has strong, safe pokes at long range that allow him to find punishing openings for minimal risk. These changes target the max range of his projectiles, and reduce his energy gain when engaging at long range.
