Designer Note :

The Dragonsbreath fire rate has been reverted back to its original state. This will not fix the issue that occurs with the ZED TIME - Pyromaniac Perk skill but it should help alleviate it and allow the weapon to perform a bit better. We will be looking into the ZED TIME - Pyromaniac Perk skill and any other Perk skill that allows shooting in real-time to address the issue that can lead weapons with long fire rates to not benefit from those skills. We also adjusted the amount of damage Hans received from its ground fire as the ground fires inflicted a lot more damage than intended onto him when they were clumped together.

The HRG Incendiary Rifle ground fire has been extended to 10 seconds. Its gameplay performance had a large margin of players that felt that it was slightly too weak, and this was a common request for the weapon.

The Pulverizer has received an adjustment to the damage modifiers from upgrading the weapon. Previously, the damage modifiers did not feel impactful for the amount of dosh spent to earn them.

The Compound Bow has received an adjustment to its standard reload speed. Previously, the Compound Bow’s standard and tactical reload rates were very close, and there was not much benefit in taking the Tactical Reload Perk skill. As such, we extended the standard reload rate by a margin that should allow the tactical reload to have a better purpose. This adjustment should also help address concerns of the Compound Bow’s base damage performance being a bit too good. Lastly, we boosted the Trader price of the Compound Bow. The reason for this is that it offers a lot of utility and damage for its price which felt a bit too cheap when compared to other weapons.
