Enchantment: Runeglaive
The new Enchantment: Runeglaive's placeholder VFX have been replaced in today's update. The spellblade hand glow effect has been changed and they've added a ring of light on hit.
Here's a brief video demo of Runeglaive in action on a few different champions.
In case you've missed it, here are the current stats for Enchantment: Runeglaive (which is replacing Magus):
Corki Q VFX Change
Along with the vfx tweaks for his other abilities in the 6/17 PBE updater, Corki's Q now has a grey bomb in it instead of being just a ball of light.
Miscellaneous
- The previously mentioned pathfinding changes will soon be removed from the PBE as they are not going to live in 5.12. Expect them to return in the 5.13 PBE cycle.
- Following the 6/17 PBE update, the work in progress HUD Update was disabled on the PBE as it will not be going to live in patch 5.12. See this post for more information and look for it's return during the 5.13 PBE cycle.
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.
Champions
- Base attack speed reverted to .658 from .638
- [Note: This is a revert to a change in an earlier PBE patch. Ashe's attack speed is now back to live values.]
- [Scarizard has tweeted that Tryndamere's Critical Strike animation is now faster on the PBE, "making it easier to attackmove with crits (and harder to cancel on accident)" ]
Items
- As expected, the Abyssal Scepter rework has been reverted. We've been told this project is currently shelved for the time being despite testing on the PBE.
Mandrake Ward
- Assets for this experimental item have once again removed from the PBE. Last we were told Mandrake Ward is not actively being iterated on.
- [Note: For the sake of less clutter, I think I'm going to stop mentioning this going on and off the PBE until they start working on it again or if it is enabled in-game again. It will live on in our hearts.]
