June 3 - Arena Hotfix
Hello everyone we have a first hotfix for the development cycle of the arena. As specified the next roughly two weeks are a time of repair and fixing for the arena, though we don't expect to be changing too much just tweaks to the system as of right now.
The following changes are being implemented:
- Bosses should more closely resemble your stats at higher levels. (Personal apology to the big guys for attacking you like that, it wasn't intentional.)
- The range of levels for high level players was allowing them to hit players on sheets that were up to 40 levels below them (Ew), this has been narrowed down.
- Bosses are now locked behind the players on your page, no more capitalizing on the boss first! The boss unlocks no matter if you win or lose vs all 4 opponents on a page.
I hope everyone is enjoying the direction the arena is going in - if not I have a request. Please do let us know in the suggestions section of the discord or an in game ticket what we can do to improve the mechanic further and enhance your experience.
Remember, we are building this together and want the best possible result before the integration period of the next Battle Pass. We do expect to see more opportunities across the board for players with these new changes but also expect there to still be a few balance kinks to work out.
We are playing with the idea of locking bosses behind your progress on a page and other things to make the arena feel more stable and fair, but for now that's it. More significant change may happen between week 1 and 2 of the arena, but for this week I'd like to observe the overall health of the new system with these changes.
Going forward one step at a time with all of you,
