Weapon Balance

Archetype

  • Auto Rifles
    • General
      • Increased the effects of the stability stat on recoil reduction by around 20% at the high end.
    • Precision frame icon1.png Precisions
      • Increased critical damage multiplier from 1.5 to 1.55 which raises the critical damage from 30 to 31.
  • Bows
    • General
      • Increased Bows stow duration. Duration varies by subfamily and handling stat.
  • Pulse Rifles
    • General
      • Rebalanced the effect of the handling across Pulse Rifles.
      • Adjusted damage falloff scale based on the range stat.
        • 0 range: reduced from 16 to 15m.
        • 100 range: unchanged.
    • Adaptive frame icon1.png Adaptives

  • Sidearms
    • General

      • Previously Sidearms were the only primary weapon where auto aim fell off significantly before damage, this brings them up to parity with other primary weapons.

Perks

Exotics

Abilities

Platforms and Systems

  • Fixed an issue where players on PlayStation Network continued seeing the Lightfall pre-order upsell dialog after they had purchased the pre-order. Interacting with the dialog sent them to the store product page, which correctly showed Lightfall as already owned.

General

  • Fixed a photosensitivity issue where the Ketch turrets were flashing in the player's camera when targeted.
