General Changes
Economy Update
We’ve made several key adjustments to the economy to better align with the new sources of income available during the round. This updated system gives us more flexibility in how gold is awarded, making progression feel more earned and performance-based.
Importantly, reaching gold cap should now feel like an objective you work toward during the neutral phase, rather than something passively given at the start of each round.
In addition, with the reworked Assault Phase leading to a higher rate of player deaths, we’ve adjusted the bounty system to reflect this shift. Bounty payouts have been reduced, as the previous values no longer matched the new pace and flow of combat in this phase.
We’ll continue monitoring match pacing and income curves to ensure these systems feel fair, rewarding, and competitive.
Income:
Round Start 5 -> 100g
Camp Minion 1 -> 40g

Bounty Changes:
Bounty trigger percentage (Amount of gold a team needs to be ahead to trigger a bounty) 15 -> 25%
Bounty reward percentage 60 -> 7.5%
Movement Changes
To better balance mobility during combat, all Core Hunters now apply a movement speed penalty to themselves while attacking 20% for melees and 25% for ranged attackers. The duration of this movement slow varies slightly between individual Core Hunters based on their weapon profiles and intended playstyles.
Additionally, we’ve reduced the backpedal movement penalty from 35% to 15%, allowing for smoother repositioning while retreating or kiting.
These changes are aimed at creating more deliberate movement during fights and improving counterplay opportunities against Core Hunters.
Map changes
More areas of the map have been updated with new textures!
Teleporters now have a short entry and exit delay added to them
Hunter Changes
Durability Update
Last week, we gave Momo, Fugu, Nova, Selector, and Klaypool a temporary 15% damage reduction to help address concerns about players dying too quickly to shooter characters.
This week, that flat damage reduction has been removed and replaced with increased armor values equal to the damage reduction. This adjustment retains their improved durability but does so through core stats, making it easier for us to tune and maintain balance across the roster.
We’ll continue to monitor how this change affects survivability and time-to-kill, and we appreciate all the feedback you’ve been sharing.
