Hotfix 13.1

Hotfix 13.1 Overview

Gameplay Adjustments and Balancing

Firearms (PvE)

• Restored Weaponry: Gunstrike damage parameters have been reverted to their pre-13.0 state.
• Plasma Pistol Calibration: We have fine-tuned the gunstrike damage for various plasma pistol models to ensure their output aligns with their specific design archetypes (e.g., dedicated damage variants now deliver a more significant impact).

Siege Mode

Atonement Scaling:

• Normal Difficulty: Atonements now begin triggering at Wave 11.
• Hard Difficulty: Atonements now begin triggering at Wave 6.

To improve visibility, a new notification indicator has been implemented to alert you the moment a blessing becomes available.

New Blessing:

• Surplus: Doubles your equipment carrying capacity and doubles the frequency of equipment spawns.

New Atonements:

• Hardened Skins: Enemies become resistant to stagger for the first three hits, though damage remains consistent.
• Posthumous Proliferation: Fallen foes now leave behind volatile Spores or Chaos Skulls, varying by faction.
• Booby Trap: Majoris-tier enemies and above will detonate upon defeat, inflicting damage to nearby squad members.

Ordeals

We have lowered the thresholds for the six “Complete missions on Absolute difficulty” class-specific ordeals, reducing the requirement tiers from 10/30/100 to 10/25/50.
