Operator Balancing

In this update, several operators have been revised and optimized to balance the gameplay.

Vigil

Vigil receives an adjustment that aligns his disruption behavior with Nøkk:

  • The ERC-7 Video Disruptor will no longer be disabled when performing certain actions, such as shooting, and instead triggers the disruption effect on cameras.
  • Vigil is not immune to Lion's EE-ONE-D and Gridlock's Kawan Hive. Both devices will detect him, but he can prevent himself from being located by activating the ERC-7.

Nøkk

Nøkk has also undergone some changes:

  • Her HEL gadget no longer reduces movement noise.
  • The maximum duration has been increased to 20 seconds (from 12).
  • Nøkk is no longer immune to Alibi's Prisma. It will detect her, but she can prevent herself from being located by activating her HEL gadget.

Other Operator Adjustments

But that's not all! Thorn receives a 1.5x magnification scope for the UZK50GI, and Oryx can now climb up hatches 30% faster.

Bug Fixes

This update also includes a number of bug fixes to improve the player experience:

  • Fixed detected gadgets on the back wall of the main staircase in the Skyscraper map.
  • Fixed an error message when accepting a squad invitation from a player who was already part of the same squad in a previous game.
  • Resolved various issues related to the shop and customization.
