Summary

Ahead of the 10.2.0 Live release, the development team has announced several key adjustments based on Player Test Build (PTB) feedback. These changes focus on balancing perk interactions and maintaining core gameplay mechanics like anti-tunneling. While some perks like Shoulder the Burden are being made more accessible for solo players, others like Dark Arrogance are being scaled back to prevent chases from ending too quickly.
