Gameplay Tuner Updates - Patch 1.5.0
Developer Feedback: We are improving the utility on specific X-Factors to give players more opportunities to counter different strategies in gameplay. We are also modifying the Sustained Pressure system to help teams create more chances to gain Full Pressure through successive counter attacks.
X-Factor Updates:
- Increased the bonus “Shrug It Off” X-Factor applies to reduce stamina drain from hits.
- Increased the bonus “Ice Pack” and “Shutdown” X-Factor applies to reduce stamina drain on blocked shots.
- Increased the bonus “Back At Ya” X-Factor applies to Reverse Hits to create larger knockdowns.
- Increased “Bouncer” X-Factor ability to win loose puck battles in front of the net.
- Increased “Quick Pick” X-Factor ability to disrupt passes.
Gameplay Updates:
- Reduced the drain rate of the Sustained Pressure meter when the puck is out of zone.
- Reduced friction on Reverse Hit to allow the puck carrier to maintain momentum and recover loose pucks easier.
