Summary
The Y11S1.3 update focuses on gameplay polishing and quality-of-life refinements. Key changes include extended utility durations for several defenders and recoil reductions for popular weapons to improve consistency. Additionally, the patch addresses several level design exploits on maps like Oregon and Border, alongside various Operator-specific bug fixes.
Balancing
Defensive operators Caveira, Vigil, and Warden have had their primary gadget durations increased to enhance their flanking and anchoring potential. To maintain balance, their total refill times have been increased accordingly. Kaid and Zero also received buffs to gadget activation and refill speeds to encourage more frequent interaction.
Weapons
Recoil adjustments have been implemented for the AUG A2, M762, and Spear .308. These changes primarily target vertical and horizontal stability to make these weapons more manageable during sustained fire on both PC and Console platforms.
Bug Fixes
Significant fixes include resolving an exploit where Oryx could use his weapon while climbing and an Azami vaulting glitch on Border. Level design issues on Villa, Oregon, and Yacht have also been corrected to ensure competitive integrity.
