Cypher, Skye, Fade, Raze in patch 7.09

This patch, we’re looking to address some issues in the balance of power between Sentinels, especially Cypher, and some other Agents on the roster. Sentinels often craft very deliberate setups only to have Agents like Raze, Skye, and Fade destroy them with typical utility use. In this patch, we’re updating Cypher’s Trapwire (C) to try to sway these interactions more in his favor, and to encourage enemy Agents to have to be more intentional and deliberate if they aim to use their utility to counter Sentinel setups.

Cypher

These changes force attackers to actively destroy traps to break Cypher’s setups and push interactions with utility like Prowlers (C) and Trailblazer (Q) more in Cypher’s favor. In addition, the potency of the traps when they snag an enemy has been increased slightly to make sure opponents have to respect their threat.

• Trapwire
  • Decreased the time until the trap concusses a captured enemy 3 → 1.5 seconds.
  • After concussing an enemy or an enemy in the trap was killed, the Trapwire (C) no longer destroys itself but instead re-arms after 0.5 seconds, allowing it to ensnare another enemy.
  • Duration of tag slow when hit by the trap increased 0.75 → 2 seconds.

Skye

These changes to Skye and Fade are meant to add more strategic depth to the placement of Cypher’s Trapwire.

• Trailblazer
  • Adjusted Trailblazer’s collision so that it goes under Trapwires placed at mid-height. This won’t affect the hitboxes for weapon damage.

Fade

• Prowler
  • Adjusted Prowler (C) collision so that they go over Trapwires placed at foot height and under Trapwires placed at head height. This won’t affect the hitboxes for weapon damage.

Raze

Raze will have to be more precise with her Paint Shells (E) in order to deal damage to enemies, including destroying enemy traps. Additionally, Raze will need to be more intentional in picking between using the Blast Pack (Q) for mobility or damage.

• Paint Shells
  • Primary grenade explosion radius 6m → 5.5m.
  • Secondary grenades explosion radius 6m → 5.25m.
  • Primary grenade explosion minimum damage 15 → 1.
  • Secondary grenades explosion minimum damage 15 → 1.
  • Damage multiplier to enemy utility 250% → 100%.
• Blast Pack
  • Satchel doesn’t deal damage until fully armed.
  • Satchel arm time increased 0.5 seconds → 1.5.

What changed for the Judge in patch 7.09?

With the changes below, we’re sharpening the Judge’s identity as a hunker-down style shotgun by reducing some of its effectiveness while moving. With the reduced mag size, we’re hoping to create more opportunities for enemies to catch a person reloading their Judge as well as nudge the person with the Judge to be more efficient in order to get multi-kills.

• Reduced max mag size from 7 → 5
• Increased Jumping spread from 1.25 → 2.25
• Increased Running spread from.10 →.75
