Character Rework

 

Faye, the Octopus

Faye is an awesome character with all four weapons at her hands… or tentacles, but we were still missing something that would make her fantast-ink! Now her active skill also applies slow to the targets! See below the details for rework and new balance: 

  • Past Active – Ink-redible Splash

Faye splashes ink in an area, blinding her opponents for a few seconds. 

  • New Active – Ink-redible Splash

Faye splashes ink in an area, blinding and slowing her opponents for a few seconds.  

 

  • Base HP increased from 1400 to 1500

 

Shelly, the Turtle

As new animals get to the Zoo, the older ones may need some updates and now it’s Shelly’s turn (better late than never, right?). Her passive used to reduce a fixed amount of damage that would weaken the passive as the damages caused increased, now her passive skill will reduce a percentage of damage (20%) for every hit she receives, what a hard shell! See below the details for rework and new balance: 

  • Past Passive – Hard skin

Take less damage per hit. 

  • New Passive – Hard Skin

Ignores a percentage of damage taken. 

  • Weapons
    • Spear range increased from 4 to 7

 

See you soon!
