What changed for Gekko in patch 6.08?
- Wingman
- Audio improvements to Wingman’s (Q) plant and defuse audio.
- The audio cues for Wingman's spike and defuse sound were unclear during hectic combat situations. This should help make those audio cues standout.
- Audio improvements to Wingman’s (Q) plant and defuse audio.
- We’ve updated Gekko’s in-game portrait for better gameplay readability and quality consistency.
What changed for Killjoy in patch 6.08?
As Killjoy has taken on a more prominent place in the meta, we’ve noticed a couple of areas where we could improve the ways her abilities interact with other players/the environment. We’ve done a pass on some of her audio cues to make them more distinct and make it clearer when her utility has been destroyed. In addition, we’ve increased the reveal radius on Nanoswarm (C) to better match its area of damage and make it more realistic for enemies that are moving methodically to track them down. We’ll be keeping a close eye on this balance point moving forward. Finally, we’ve removed the yellow warning indicator that was added to Lockdown (X) last patch, as it was too noisy on screen for the full duration of her ultimate winding up.
- Nanoswarm (C)
- Nanoswarm reveal radius increased 350 >> 525
- Nanoswarm audio has been updated.
- Audio loop now also turns off when disabled as a result of Killjoy being killed or suppressed.
- Improved feedback for the enemy when they destroy Nanoswarm.
- Nanoswarm is now revealed when it is disabled.
- Other Abilities
Misc in patch 6.08
