#Automatically getting the next pass just for the Nyx skin tbh

[funkii4-blog]

Summarization of the content shown off in Paladins’ overview video of next update. There’s a lot of balance related stuff this time so this is kinda long;

- Valor’s End event pass; 30 levels with skins for Khan & Nyx

- (I’m not a huge fan of the Khan skin but Nyx’s looks pretty cool for her first inclusion in a pass. And sadly neither recolor is very good, Khan’s is too busy while Nyx’s has some weird clashing colors)

- Several minor UI adjustments, including slight color changes to XP bars and certain buttons

- Payload is now included in custom matches

- Additional details added to the Snowfall Junction map

- HUD effects now visible on the lower right side of the health bar instead of above on the left side, up to five can be shown there at a time. This is for Lex’s bounty mark, Corvus’ healing mark, etc.

- Kasumi’s class role has been changed from dps to flank and her abilities have been reworked to more fit the role. This is (at least to my knowledge) the second champion class change ever and the first since the end of the beta

- Talent adjustments for supports including Io, Seris, and Furia. Luna’s aoe ally healing is now a passive instead of talent-locked while Furia has received major overhauls of two of her talents

- Cherish’s old range increase effect is now passive and the new effect grants a small aoe when Kindle Soul is used; Exterminate’s old effect has been removed and the new effect increases attack speed bonus per tier of Wrath active (max tier bonus increased by 15%)

- Seris’ Mortal Reach talent now allows you to use Restore Soul and Shadow Travel simultaneously. It isn’t stated in the overview video or patch notes if the range increase effect is removed

- Grover’s Rampant Blooming talent has been severely nerfed, with healing boosts provided with the effect being cut pretty much in half :/

- Adjustmemts to several flanks (Caspian & Evie buffs, a much needed Skye nerf, etc.)

- Imani’s mana rift radius was cut by two thirds. Poor woman can’t catch a break

- Inara nerfs; Mother’s Grace’ bonus healing effect has been removed and both the damage reduction & duration of Earthen Guard have been decreased

- Slight nerfs to Nyx, her base hp reduced by 150 and the cooldowns of two abilities increased

- Octavia’s weapon can now be fired full auto, but scoped damage has been slightly reduced

- Several healing buffs for Ying :D good for her
