New Features and Balance Adjustments in Title Update 2.16.0

Patch
Quick Take

Title Update 2.16.0 brings improvements to River Fort, Breach, and matchmaking, along with bug fixes for several heroes.

  • New: River Fort map adjustments: railings added around moat at Zone B, Zone C reduced to upper area, enlarged for better navigation, and ledges made non-lethal with lower platforms.
  • Updated: War Banner icon in Breach now grayed out on cooldown; geo localization databases updated for better server allocation.
  • Fixed: Shinobi no longer falls from ledges when tackling near a ledge; Highlander Light Openers in Defensive Form reliably perform Superior Block; Gladiator's Fuscina Ictus no longer unbalances allies; Nuxia's Right Heavy Finisher consistently ledges opponents and trapped opponents cannot activate Revenge early; Black Prior cannot cancel Bulwark Counter with Revenge, can activate Revenge during recovery and stance, and Side Light Finishers cause correct hit reaction.
