III. Hero Adjustments
Adjusted for some heroes their recommended equipment In this version we have made some adjustments to Yi Sun-shin . Firstly about the Bleed Mechanic, we originally hoped this mechanic would complement his skills, helping him zone others to create a unique playstyle. In the actual play setting, this was weaker than we expected, so we have removed this mechanic. Instead we have increased his close range basic attack damage as well as giving Blood Floods an extra slow effect for his close range basic attacks. At the same time we have buffed Blood Flood’s charged damage, allowing better outplay potential. We hope these changes will help Admiral Yi become a formidable force again.
Yi Sun-shin Removed Bleed Mechanic, Heavenly Vow effects adjusted to” Yi chooses his longbow or glaive to attack according to his distance from the target. Glaive basic attacks will deal more damage and also slow the enemy. A command ship will be summoned to fortify the base. The hero can board the turtle ship beside the base periodically and get buffs. Blood Floods: Charged up attack damage increased from 1-1.5 times to 1-2 times, targeted enemy will be slowed within 2 seconds. Miya Turbo Stealth :Fixed the bug of when Miya is in Turbo Stealth and not displaying the correct effects. Also fixed the bug of where Turbo Stealth speed boost only lasts for a second, now it should be the same as stealth time. Vexana Cursed Oath :Added effect—Cursed enemies will now have 40% reduced healing. Cursed Oath :Zombies will now have faster movement speed Chou Health per level changed from 195 to 206 Way of the Dragon : Using the second part of the spell on a knocked up enemy will no longer CC them, only damage them. Fanny Energy Regeneration speed changed from 5 to 3 Air Superiority : effect “ Killing a hero with a Prey marker will regen energy for Fanny, 10 pts per layer.” changed to “ Killing a hero with a Prey marker will regen energy for Fanny, 3 pts per layer.” Alpha Beta, Advance! : Also works against jungle monsters now.
