Summary
Weapon Adjustments
The Hemlok has been tuned to increase both vertical and horizontal recoil, making it less 'smooth' at range. Additionally, its hipfire spread has been increased to reduce its effectiveness in close-quarters combat.
Bug Fixes
A specific interaction where Wraith's 'Into the Void' incorrectly blocked damage from Gibraltar's Thunder Dome has been resolved. Reactive skins have also been fixed to function correctly across all modes.
