General Gameplay Changes

  • “DODGED!” pop-up text should now only appear if an attack has been completely dodged. Attacks with lingering hitboxes and/or many active frames must now be completed in full before the pop-up text will appear. This should help ease frustrations that stem from when players would dodge an active attack, see the “DODGED!” text, and still get hit by the attack.
  • The horizontal speed boost that is applied from dodge jumping will no longer be applied if the dodge did not spend any dodge meter.
  • Fixed an issue where applying armor from multiple sources would occasionally incorrectly time out the armor early.
  • Shocked debuff no longer breaks armor when it ticks on the debuffed fighter. It will still deal damage, but the armor will remain. Shocked debuff ticks that chain to a nearby fighter will still break the armor of the chain target fighter.

Perks

  • “Clear The Air - Fixed an issue where ‘Clear The Air’ would improperly stack with other projectile-dodging effects based on the order the perks were equipped.
  • School Me Once… - Updated perk text to better describe perk effect.

Batman

    • No longer heals Bugs or his allies if they are hit with a reflected pie.

Finn

    • Reduced charge damage multiplier from 2x to 1.5x.
    • Clamping speed at the end of the attack to allow a greater window to punish on whiff.
