Patch 0.7.5

We are deep into our next development cycle, in which we are focusing on building features that were brought up during the next fest, with our priority being disincentivizing leavers. We want to take a two-fold approach to punish leavers and provide relief for players who are stuck with an AFK player. We will announce plenty of other features in our next major patch. For now, here is a small balance patch and a fix to a scaling bug on the Dragonfly’s Adderbolt.

• Speed scales faster as the game progresses. Top speed increased from 68 knots to 85 knots.

Ability 2 - Adderbolt

• change damage scaling to linear (it scales less per level gained) note: this ability was using an older scaling model that had it scaling rapidly at the mid levels so at lower levels, it was similar to the sampan, than higher levels it started to get close to the sampan harpoon again. it was just the mid level that it was out of control. dealing damage like it was roughly 5-7 level higher (12-15 ship levels higher)
