God Balance

Amaterasu

Amaterasu has an inconsistency with her Air Light’s warp range that we want to iron out. We’re also making a few changes to some of her traits to improve build options.

• Reduced warp range of Air Light from 8m to 4m.

Talents

• Absolutely Dashing: Removed Ultimate Charge on ability usage. Now grants a 7.5% charge on hitting an enemy
• Agile Aura: Increased movement speed buff from 12.5% to 15%.
  • “Agile Aura” is now in Amaterasu’s default set instead of “Absolutely Dashing”
• Empowered Aura: Increased the additional knockback from 10% to 15%.

 

King Arthur

King Arthur has been doing better with the changes in the previous patch, so we’re closer to where we’d like to be, which necessitates only one update this time around.

• Blinding Light: Increased damage from 12 to 15.

Sol

Sol is getting some talent changes to improve her viability across all queues and add some tougher choices in her build-crafting.

Talents

• Blazing Trail: Changed the way cooldown reduction is applied per hit by the ability. The first hit with the ability reduces the cooldown by 4s, and each subsequent hit reduces the cooldown by 2s.
• Healing Flame: Increased healing from each Fire Pool from 1 to 2.
• Hot Streak: Increased cooldown reduction from 9s to 10s.
• Line of Fire: Increased additional knockback caused at close range from 25% to 30%.
• Sun Spots: Updated text description to clarify the number of Fire Pools created.

Ymir

Our resident Ice Giant’s ultimate is a little too effective, so we’re reducing its power ever so slightly.

• Reduced knockback of Ymir’s Ult by 10%.

Zeus

The ruler of Olympus has provided plenty of fresh energy to DKO since he joined the fight but he needs a little tune-up to give everybody a fair chance and improve his chances in 1v1/2v2. His ultimate in particular, while exciting and terrifying at the same time, has a little too much presence when he casts it and we want to make the tactical play around it a little more interesting.

• Adjusted motion and warp range of Air Light from 10m to 7.5m.
• Bolt of Olympus: Increased projectile speed by 15%.
• Heaven’s Rage:
  • Reduced the number of bolts thrown from 15 to 9, so Zeus will now throw 3 sets before snapping his fingers for a Lightning Strike.
  • Increased the damage of each bolt from 4 to 6.
  • Reduced prefire of the final Lightning Strike by 0.05s.
  • Increased ultimate charge by 6%.

Bug Fixes

More than 100 bugs were fixed in that build. Highlighting the ones that have the most consequences on gameplay.

• Bolt of Olympus (Zeus ability) charging UI now correctly represents the charged state.
• Sharp-eyed (Thor Lesser Blessing) will now work correctly with Zeus’ Bolt of Olympus.
• Activating Sun Wukong’s “72 Transformations” ability immediately after spawning will no longer prevent the ability from going on cooldown.
