MAYHEM UPDATE

Mage Mayhem patch 1.3 is a large gameplay update patch bringing in new features, abilities and perks. The planned release date for the patch is on or before August 10th.

RELEASE NOTES

MAYHEM EVENTS

The Elder Wizards grow tired of watching pitiful duels between lesser beings. They summon great magic periodically to see who the strongest, most adaptable wizard is. There will be six events upon release:

  • Meteor Shower
  • Lava Floor
  • Crystals
  • Death to the Lone
  • Battle Hardened
  • Capture Point

These events main goal are to speed up matches that are dragging, and cause MAYHEM.

PERK AND ABILITY CHANGES

CLASS BALANCE

  • Trapper is receiving a mini rework along with two new abilities, Cluster Bomb and Shadow Drone. This mini rework provides more AoE damage and makes abilities feel more responsive and consistent.
  • Tank's Death Touch and Shield Toss have been changed to make them easier to use.
  • Druid received a new ability, Lightning Wisp, which provides increased movement through enemies and AoE damage.
  • Ice Mage received a new ability, Frost Nova, which provides AoE slow and Frost debuff application.

PERKS

  • Mending Step - a defensive perk which allows for invulnerability frames on dodge.
  • Orbital Assault - an offensive perk rewarding not being hit with giving more damage.

QoL IMPROVEMENTS

Options for visual clarity improvements on abilities and casting, improved spectating, improved targeting for Druid, and much more!

This is just an overview of what is in store and a more detailed release of patch notes will be supplied once the actual patch is released.
