Servers will be down for 5-10 minutes while they update and restart.

This will most likely be the last patch before the final release on Thursday Oct 26th. We still haven’t gotten all of the larger bugs finished yet (known bug list coming soon) but just because we are releasing on Thursday doesn’t mean development will completely stop.

Today’s patch isn’t a big one but with it we finally have real spawn rooms for Conquest and some much needed bug fixes. We also got in a fix for the sound bug that was causing some issues with certain effects not playing when the volume slider was below 25%. Also, Earth took a nerf this week with his passive damage resistance being reduced. We have some nice trailers coming soon so stay tuned and see you all on Thursday!
