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
- [More context and information on these changes available in Stashu's thread!]
- Base damage increased to 52.376 from 50.376
- Base mana regen per second increased to 1.672 from 1.2
- Mana Regen Per Second Per Level lowered from 0.16 to 0.15
- Aspect of the Serpent (Passive)
- No longer stacks on poisoned unit kill or on Twin Fang casts on enemy champions.
- Now, stacks once every 6 seconds (10 times per minute) and for every second that an enemy champion is poisoned.
- [Context from Stashu: Stack breakpoints adjusted to 100 / 250 / 500. Overall, these are hit sooner than the old 75/200/400 based on the new mechanics, but are definitely still up for discussion.]
- Noxious Blast (Q)
- Movement speed buff now 20% at all ranks from 10/15 /20/25 /30%.
- [Context from Stashu: Delay changed to actually function as intended (previously hitting between 0.25 and 0.5s). Now has a 0.4s delay. With the reliability changes, it was a bit too reliable, so we set the delay at 0.4.]
- Twin Fang (E)
- Mana cost changed to 35/45/55/65/75 from 30/45/60/75/90.
- Now adds a debuff on the target which amplifies further poison damage by 25% for 5 seconds, stacks up to 2 times (50%).
- AP Ratio changed to 0.55 at all ranks from 0.4/0.45/0.5/0.55/0.6
- [Context from Stashu: Since we're adding damage elsewhere on the kit (mostly through this debuff), we decided to take a bit out of Twin Fang's late game.
Fiddlesticks
- Dread (Passive) is no longer an aura. Now reads "Fiddlesticks' spells and attacks reduce his target's Magic Resistance by 10 for 3 seconds."
- Dark Wind (E) silence duration increased to 1.25 from 1.2
- Dark Wind (E) can no longer apply silence to the same target more than once per cast.
- [Nothing in this patch but ricklessabandon has preemptively shared a set of changes that will be coming to the PBE on Monday!]
Items
Guardian Angel
- Magic resist increased to 50 from 40.
- Total price increased by 100, from 2750g to 2850g
- Now Builds out of Negatron Cloak + Chain Vest + 1250g.
