The Y4S1.3 Patch will release on April 16th for PC and April 17th for console. The Y4S1.3 Patch includes the Lion rework, Capitao V2 and a number of other balancing changes which you can read about in greater detail in our Designer’s Notes.

BALANCING

LION REWORK

• Reduced the ability warning to 1.5 seconds (from 3 seconds).
• Reduced the scanning to 2 seconds (from 4 seconds).
• Replaced the scan outline by a red ping debuff.
• Increased the number of charges to 3 (from 2 charges).
• Reduced the ability cooldown to 15 seconds (from 27 seconds).
• Vigil's ability ERC–7's cloak makes him immune to Lion's scan.

With more of a focus on intel gathering, now this predator has to play smart to catch his prey. Check out the Designer’s Notes to learn more.

CAPITÃO V2

• Dart fire damage per tick reduced to 12 (from 19/tick).
• Dart fire AOE size increased and now takes 2 seconds to reach max size.
• Arrows now follow a straight trajectory until 10 meters. Past 10 meters, there is an arrow trajectory falloff due to gravity.

Adjustments to his AOE damage will now emphasize skill and not blind luck.

BLITZ

• Ballistic shield flash cooldown increased to 7 seconds between flashes (from 2 second CD).

Enjoy the breather!

KAID

• AUG–A3 damage increased to 33 (up from 27).
• Remove a magazine from TCSG12 Shotgun to reduce total ammunition to 51 (down from 61).

Now the commander has a few choices to make.

MAESTRO

• Maestro’s Evil Eyes windows will automatically open halfway when disabled by EMPs or Shock Drones.

Maestro’s defenses were a bit too ironclad, so we’ve opened up the window of opportunity a little.

NOMAD

• Added idle SFX to Nomad's Airjab once deployed to act as warning feedback for gadget position when active Airjabs are nearby.

• Replaced Claymore with 3x Stun Grenades in Nomad’s loadout.

• Listen to the wind, it talks.*

YING

• Changes to the reverse Candela cooking mechanic. The longer it cooks, the less time it takes to explode.

New and improved recipe.

ECHO

• IQ can now detect Echo when he is using his PDA.
