Character Changes
From the Devs: "We've identified and corrected and issue that affected many Characters with a Continuous Healing or Continuous Damaging effect as part of their ability kits. The issue was surrounding the calculation dealing the entire amount of damage or healing per tick instead of that amount over the designed duration. We recognize that this adjustment may have some initial shock to the players who utilize these characters – and will allow those combating against these Characters to stand a chance. The balance of the Characters is ongoing and we will ensure that we properly increase the capabilities of those which prove to be lacking but try to avoid dramatically reducing the power of those over performing in most cases. This case, unfortunately, is unavoidable."
The following Characters and their abilities have been corrected:
- Baloo's "Bare Necessities"
- Demona's "Recite: Saeti"
- Jack Skellington's "Zero!"
- Jafar's "Just Getting Warmed Up"
- Kronk's "Junior Chipmunk Guide"
- Merida's "Rain of Arrows"
- Pete's "Heavy Hitter"
- Pocahontas' "Choose Your Path"
- Shan Yu's "Bow to Me!"
- Shere Khan's "Law of the Jungle"
- Sheriff of Nottingham's "Well-Timed Treachery"
- Tinker Bell's "Feisty Fervor"
- Frozone's "Ice Block"
Additional Character Changes
Pocahontas
From the Devs: "Pocahontas' immediate heal, not to be confused with the issue above that her Continuous Healing would have been affected by, was restoring substantially more Health than intended and was a large oversight on our end. This fix actually went live alongside the latest client update that missed the update notes, unfortunately. We strive to keep players informed of the changes as much as possible and apologize that this one slipped through the cracks. Back to the actual issue, Pocahontas' basic ability was outperforming every other health restoring Support character by massive margin - even to the point of keeping other Characters completely healed up at all-times. The intent of Pocahontas is to be a passive health restoring Character that also compensates for her lack of dealing damage while in this mode. We're going to keep an eye on her performance and make further adjustments as needed."
