2/20 PBE Update: More Tentative Itemization Changes

Posted on at 12:06 PM by Moobeat
[ Update 2: In addition to reduced damage, Dragon's attacks also now apply a healing reduction effect and no longer reduce attack speed. No worries though, ricklessabandon noted these aren't going in 4.3 and were prematurely added to the PBE. ]

A small update, containing the rest of the tentative 4.3 itemization change Xypherous has been talking about, has been pushed to the PBE!

2/20 Team Builder Testing: 1 PM to 5 PM PST ( 9 PM - 1 AM GMT )

Team Builder will be on the PBE for testing today, Feb 20th, between 1 PM and 5 PM PST ( 9 PM - 1 AM GMT ). See this thread for more info.


Update on Bot Behavior Updates

RoamingNumeral has shared a few additional changes to the Boy Behavior Updates that hit the PBE earlier this month.
"UPDATES for 02/20/2014:
The following changes should be on PBE or deployed tomorrow:
  • Bots will be a little less confident under their own towers (though still fell pretty safe)
  • Bots will be more likely to attack closer enemies (slightly more than even the last change)
  • A number of fighters will now be more determined when chasing
  • Bots now re-position between auto-attacks. This is not perfect, but ranged bots should kite, and melee bots should try to stick to their targets.
  • Bots will now avoid Zombies if there is no reason to continue fighting, and won't waste spells on them
  • Bots will now follow targets that break line of sight a bit more realistically
  • Trundle and Miss Fortune have been updated
  • Updated intermediate bots now have revised item builds
  • Updated beginner bots now follow the recommended items"

Balance Changes

* Remember *: The PBE is a testing grounds for new, tentative, and sometimes radical changes. The changes you see below may be lacking context or other accompanying changes that didn't make it in - don't freak out! These are not official notes.
