Patch Notes: NW.290.20230424a.6

 

Release Notes

Content and Environment

    • We're making a small tweak to reduce the broad damage potential of the Cyclops War Drummer. We like that he's a powerful support companion, but we've shifted some of his damage from Repercussion to Bash, which should lower his damage ceiling while raising his damage floor. We'll continue to monitor his performance to ensure he doesn't crowd out the rest of the companion space.
