A few new improvements have landed in BR. Here's a breakdown of the changes: 🌀 Storm circles now close faster in the later phases of a match. Early game pacing is unchanged, but as the match goes on, you'll have less time to rotate late. This is an active trial and we want your feedback. Does the pacing feel better? Are late rotations still doable? Let us know! 📦 Fewer pistols can be found generally, and Shock Rocks now drop in stack sizes of 2, with a reduced maximum stack of 4. 🛡️ Guardian Shields now drains faster at full charge, and now recharges slower. The Guardian Shield has grown to be too powerful since being reintroduced to Zero Build, so we’re pulling back its defensive power. 💥 Surgical Burst Rifles deal more damage and shoot straighter while in motion. Warforged Assault Rifles also now fire slightly faster, reload quicker, and are generally more accurate. Assault Rifles have settled into a more limited role since season launch, so we’re rebalancing them to bring them in line with other inventory options. 💥 Bank Shot Pistols drop more often, direct hits deal more damage, however ricochet shots remain unchanged. Relying on bounce shots to achieve max damage is no easy task, so we’re increasing the base damage of the Bank Shot Pistol for a more consistent experience. 🔮 To bring these in line with our standard Mythic weapon stat progression, the Mythic Ranger Pistol now deals slightly less damage, and the Mythic Rapid Fire SMG now holds more bullets per magazine.
