Hello, Wayfinders! We know nerfs are never fun, but we see these as necessary steps to achieve our goal of healthy long-term gameplay. Today we're going to be adjusting some of the current extreme outliers, along with a small improvement to Hellswarm's ability.

In the near future, we'll be further developing the identity and feel of each rifle sub-type, improve underperforming weapons, and improve the viability of choosing Defensive Stats & Ability Power in builds.

Arcstorm

• Reduced weapon ability scaling of Arcbeam by 17%.
• Arcbeam is no longer affected by the bonus Weapon Power from active reload.

Tempest

• Reduced weapon ability Bulletstorm damage by 25%
• Bulletstorm no longer builds Eagle Eye meter and cannot spawn an Eagle Eye target.
• Removed the ability to fire while Bulletstorm is firing.

Hellswarm

• Increased the radius of the weapon ability Volcano by 37%.

Additional Updates

• Fixed an issue causing the Reaver King and Marrow to become invisible and invulnerable after reviving.
• Fixed the Equilibrium echo buff being removed on death.
• Fixed players always returning to Deepwood Holt after activities.
• Fixed the Reaver King’s Artifact overriding crit chance values instead of adding.
• Fixed the incorrect store icon for the Legacy weapon.
• Fixed the Hollow One Root not spawning for the Roots of Evil quest.
• Fixed the Gourmet Slice trinket using the incorrect name.
• Improved the visual cue hints for the Ring of Ashes side quest.
