Well, hello there.

We recently added a ranking system to Brawl, and now it's time to tweak a few numbers. So we shook the Mutation Tree a little, fixed some puny humans' abilities, and nerfed a couple of random mutations.

UPDATE 1.4.6

• Balance Changes •

Mutation Tree changes [b](Brawl):[/b]

  • Levels 1 and 2 of Wide Selection have had their costs lowered: 10; 15 -> 5; 10;
  • Armor Bonus cost lowered: 30 -> 20. This mutation now gives more armor at level 1: 10; 20; 40; 80 -> 20; 40; 80 (there are fewer levels now);
  • Health Bonus now gives more health at levels 1 and 2: 40; 100; -> 60; 120;
  • Level 1 of Health Multiplier has had its cost lowered: 30 -> 20, and the effect is a little weaker: 50 -> 40. But it's easier to reach Magic Defense Bonus now!
  • Added the main game mode's attack speed mutation to Brawl.

Changes to class abilities and the recently-added tier 4 item abilities:

  • Increased the cooldown of Taunt for Tanks: 20 seconds -> 30 seconds;
  • Buffed the effect of Demoralizing Blow (the special ability of tier 4 Tank weapon, Panzer-Poo): 30% -> 50%;
  • The Force (the special ability of tier 4 Fencer weapon, Laser Sword): enemy projectiles now should have a higher chance of being deflected: 20% -> 30%;
  • The chance for Shock Therapy (the special ability of tier 4 Healer weapon, Defibrillator) to trigger has been increased: 20% -> 30%;
  • Build a Turret (the special ability of tier 4 Egghead weapon, Turret) damage increased: 45 -> 65;
  • Bonus from Final (uni)Form (the special ability of tier 4 Mage weapon, Sailor Fuku) increased: 50% -> 70%.

Changes to random mutations and the Mutation Tree:

  • Slightly nerfed Fast Reload in the standard mutations tree: 20; 30; 45; 60 -> 15; 30; 40; 50;
  • Summon Zombie now requires more mana: 10 -> 45;
  • Final Gift is less generous – health bonus reduced (only in Brawl): 200 -> 100;
  • Sticky Blood is a little less sticky now: -40% -> -30%;
  • Despiritualization now burns less mana: 70 -> 40;
  • Radius of No Touching significantly reduced: 56 -> 25;
