ARMED & DANGEROUS EVOLVED LTM
The Armed & Dangerous Limited time mode has evolved. In this LTM, only Shotguns and Snipers are allowed. You’ll also start with a Mozambique and Evo armor. All other armor has been removed from the loot pool. But that’s not all. Respawn beacons will also be removed and all players will start with the Mobile Respawn Beacon in their inventory.
MOBILE RESPAWN BEACONS
Mobile Respawn Beacon
Need to Respawn on the go? Use the new Mobile Respawn Beacons! In the Armed and Dangerous LTM, players will start the match with one in their inventory. Then from the inventory screen, deploy it anywhere on the map and save your fallen teammates. But beware, calling in a Respawn Beacon takes time, giving your enemies time to find you, take you out, and use that Beacon you just deployed. So find that safe spot before you call it in.
CRYPTO TOWN TAKEOVER
Crypto’s Town Takeover
Crypto is taking over and providing some recon to Kings Canyon. Located at the south-east of the map (under Repulsor), lies Crypto’s Map Room. Use his tech to get the location of all Legends on the map and check the screens scattered around the room to see how many enemy squads are nearby.
HEIRLOOM – MIRAGE’S TROPHY
Mirage’s Heirloom
Isn’t that a handsome guy! Yes, it’s true, your man Mirage is getting his Heirloom! The gorgeous statue is one of a kind (sort of) and will ensure you look good in the arena.
LEGEND UPDATES
Lifeline
- Passive
- Combat Revive now replaces Combat Medic.
- Deploy D.O.C to revive teammates. D.O.C. will deploy a shield and revive Lifeline’s teammate, leaving Lifeline free to defend or revive someone else.
- This fully replaces Lifeline’s old passive, including Fast Heal
- Tactical
- Lifeline’s Tactical cooldown is now 45 seconds (was 60 seconds).
- Ultimate
- Lifeline’s Care Package now contains more items
- Care Package will contain 3x more small healing items, when it decides to spawn small healing items
- Care Package will contain 2x more attachments, when it decides to spawn attachments
Octane
- Tactical
- Upon activation, Stim will remove movement impairing effects.
- Stim sprinting speed is increased by 10%
- Ultimate
- Players can now double jump in mid-air after using Octane’s Launch Pad
- Players can change direction easily from the double jump.

- Tactical
- Will now cancel:
- Pathfinder mid-grapple
- Wraith mid-Phase Walk attempt (before Phase Walk activates)
- Will now prevent:
- Mirage cloaked revive
- Mirage decoy control activation
- Lifeline combat revive
- Ultimate
- Range removed on Death Totem
Crypto
- Tactical
- Deploying Hack (Crypto’s Drone) now takes 1.5 seconds (from 2.5 seconds)
- Ultimate
- EMP will now disable Wattson’s Pylons.
Loba
- Tactical
- Burglar’s Best Friend will no longer be intercepted by Watton’s Interception Pylon.
- Ultimate
- Black Market Boutique (ultimate) will now only pick up 1 stack of ammo (rather than 1 stack + the amount that was required to fill whatever partial stack you had in your inventory).

Wattson
The intent of these changes is to create openings where enemies can breach Wattson positions. It is still possible for Wattson players to hold a position with a trophy indefinitely, but that should come at the cost of using Ultimate Accelerants.
- Wattson’s Pylons now last for 90 seconds
- Wattson can now have up to 3 pylons out at a time
- Wattson can stack 2 Ultimate accelerants per inventory slot
Wraith
Increasing Wraith’s tactical cooldown has proven to be ineffective at curbing her exceedingly high win rate and kill rate. These changes are meant to disincentivize Wraith players from using Phase Walk as a “get out of jail free” card, and move it into more of a repositioning and scouting ability.

- This does not affect Phase Walk while placing a Phase Portal

- While in Phase Walk, Wraith can now see other players while in the Void.

- Decreased distance for portal placement by 25%.

- Greatly increased horizontal recoil in the initial shots of a burst
- Decreased magazine size from 32 to 28.
