Hey Zoobsters!

In order to keep the game exciting for everyone, we’re going to make some changes to the Movement Speed items.

Some of these items were making characters too fast and too often , which was creating unfair situations during matches. Because of that, we’re going to rebalance items like Jungle Boots, Electric Gauntlets, Holy Sandals, and Turbo Rocket. Our goal is not to make the game slower, but to avoid situations where a player doesn’t have any chance to escape from an enemy. 

 

Let’s take a look at the changes:

Jungle Boots

They will now give a small boost to base speed, but the bonus after leaving bushes will be reduced. Even if the boost was temporary, in practice, it worked almost all the time.

And there’s more: movement speed bonuses will now be percentual instead of fixed values. This makes things fairer for everyone!

 

Check below to see how it is now and how it will be:

 

Turbo Rockets

While we want to limit the amount of speed you get from Turbo rockets, we are making it easier to stack, and adding cooldown reduction on each stack! 

Every time you hit an enemy, you get one stack on this item. Each stack gives you bonus Movement Speed and Cooldown Reduction, based on the values below.

If the player doesn’t hit any target for 10 seconds, all stacks are reset.

This effect is limited to a maximum of 15 stacks.

Move Speed

Cooldown Reduction

 

Electric Gauntlets

The speed bonus is now 20%, versus 40% before.

 

Holy Sandals

The bonus will now be percentual, with a new value of 20%.

 

Wake-Up Coffee

The boost will now be percentual, based on the values in the table below:

 

That’s it for now! 

Thanks and see you in the Zoo!
