HERO BALANCE CHANGES:
General
- Quick Melee
- Damage decreased from 50 to 30
- Cooldown decreased from 1.5 seconds to 1 second
Developer comments: Quick Melee has proven to be too strong of an ability, especially when used in combination with other attacks to increase ‘burst’ damage potential. Lowering the damage of a melee attack also allows us to lower the cooldown, making it feel more responsive when you need it.
Bastion
- Tank Mode
- Duration reduced from 10 seconds to 8 seconds
Developer comments: We like the way Bastion’s ultimate is performing, but it is lasting just a bit too long for enemies to reasonably react to it.
Genji
- Health increased from 150 to 200
- Shuriken
- Damage reduced by 20%
Developer comments: We’ve been listening to feedback and watching data very closely on Genji, especially since we recently lowered his health. Overall that change did put him in a better place, but we want to try an alternative change by lowering his damage output instead of his survivability.
