General Deflection damage % reduced to 60% from 65% Auxiliary damage scaling nerfed Suggestion Shop For those of you who've not been around EpicDuel very long, occasionally we select item ideas submitted by players from the EpicDuel community to be incorporated into the game. Often, these ideas are accompanied by sketches and descriptions. It's been ages since our last shop of this nature, and we're quite pleased and amused by some of the latest creative concepts. These are great fun for us to interpret in Flash as great care is taken to get as close to the player's vision as possible. If you suggested an item or items that go into the shop, you will receive them along with the Epic Artist Achievement! Which items go into the game depend on many factors including clarity of the sketch, creativity, and often humor. Another big factor is time! There are only so many hours to devote to each suggestion so tough decisions must be made when culling the list. You can view the latest inventory of Suggestion Shop items by visiting Charfade in the Barrens Outpost! L Cruiser -- Junny Osan L Hover Cruiser -- Junny Osan Chrome Halberd P -- Okubi Chrome Halberd E -- Okubi Silenced Plasma ACP -- Okubi Sanctus Axe -- Shru. Sanctus Staff -- Shru.

Don't worry! Some of these suggestions were very detailed and many weapons had to be cut for the release. That means there will be more suggestion items to come in next week's release! This suggestion shop was a rather large undertaking and I'm pleased to reveal that Charfade has returned to EpicDuel for art support in realizing these designs! It's great to be able to utilize her immense talents in EpicDuel once again! Tags: Nightwraith

	June 05, 2020 Balance Update 6-5-2020 After several of our balance updates, we've seen the win percentages move quite a bit, with Bounty Hunters surging ahead in terms of 1v1 win rates. Currently, Cyber Hunters lag behind the most in 2v2 and 1v1 win rates so we took a look at their skill and did some shuffling, including replacing the duplicate skill Cheap Shot, with a new skill Precision Strike to better synergize with their affinity for energy manipulation. Balance Blood Mage: Energy Parasite: energy return increased to 1.2X return instead of 1.0X.

Plasma Grenade: Improves with every 0.35 Tech instead of 0.4.This was originally set to 0.2, which was way too powerful and was corrected in an emergency patch. Adaptative Offense:* Improves with Strengh instead of Dextery. Cores: True shot: Energy cost increased by 15 energy to 100 Phantasm Blast P and E: Reduce base energy to 35%, max 55%; Warm up removed Coming Up Suggestion Shop!
