How has the Spectre changed in every patch?

The Spectre has been changed in 3 patches since the closed beta, most recently in patch 11.08. Each entry links to the full notes for that patch.

  1. Patch 11.08
    • Buff Total spread reduced from 1.5 → 1.4
    • Buff Tap Efficiency increased from 2 → 3
      • Tap Efficiency determines the rate that inaccuracy is accrued when re-firing prior to waiting for the complete duration of a weapon’s respective Gun Recovery Time. The higher the Tap Efficiency, the lower the rate of inaccuracy accrual
    • Buff Horizontal (Yaw) switch time increased from 0.18s → 0.28s
    • Buff Protected bullet count increased from 4 → 5 bullets
    • Buff Horizontal (Yaw) switch time increased from 0.20s → 0.28s
  2. Patch 5.12
    • Added a third damage range to the Spectre and updated distances. New distances and body shot damage are:
      • 0-15m, 26 damage.
      • 15m-30m, 22 damage.
      • 30m+, 20 damage.
    • For reference, the old ranges and damages were:
      • 0-20m, 26 damage.
      • 20m+, 22 damage.
  3. Patch 4.0
    • Firing error occurs at earlier bullet stages
      • For example, instead of errors occurring at bullets 4, 7, 10 (in terms of firing order) they will instead happen at bullets 3, 6, 8
    • Increased pitch and yaw (vertical and horizontal) recoil multipliers when running/jumping/on ascender from 1.25 → 1.5
    • Protected bullet count from yaw (horizontal) switching while spraying, decreased 8 → 5 bullets
    • Lowering time to switch yaw from.24 →.18 seconds
      • While spraying, the time you have until you could switch yaws (horizontal movement) again is lower, meaning it can happen more often
