  • LMB/RT // MACHINE PISTOLS
    “With the recent changes to the critical-hit damage of ranged heroes, we saw an opportunity to better differentiate between the two base upgrade branches for Beckett's basic attack skill.

June 21, 2017
  • GAME RULE: "IN COMBAT" SKILLS
    “We've adjusted several Hero skills to no longer place you in combat. These are largely passive skills which don't implicitly place you in combat, and which often have a practical use outside of combat. Here are the affected Heroes and skills.”
    • Beckett: Jetpack (E/RB)
  • GENERAL
    • Fixed a bug where applying weakness halfway through a skill would not properly reduce damage dealt by those Heroes.
      • Beckett: Grenade (RMB/LT)
  • BECKETT
    • LMB/RT // MACHINE PISTOLS/CANNON
      • Adjusted the skill text for the Painfully Accurate upgrade to reflect that it sets critical damage to +30% rather than adding 30% to the base 20% modifier.
    • RMB/LT // GRENADE
      • Fixed a bug where Grenade wouldn't play the explosion sound effect.
      • Fixed a bug where Grenade's audio effects would continue to play even after the projectile was destroyed.
    • Q/LB // SWITCH WEAPONS
      • Blast Radius upgrade: Fixed a bug where the Blast Radius upgrade wouldn't properly add to Beckett's crit chance on hit.
      • Fixed a bug where most Cannon upgrades would increase the base damage of the skill slightly.
    • F/LS+RS // AIR STRIKE
      • Supreme Will upgrade: Fixed a bug where launching an Air Strike wouldn't restore the intended 100 stamina.
