IMPROVEMENTS & BUG FIXES
- General Bug Fixes
- Ionstorm Accelerator has been updated
- No longer makes buildings immune to slow, stun and tactical fields
- Now provides 50% slow and tactical field resist and 75% stun resist
- Range increased from 50 to 70
Why? The Ionstorm Accelerator is a tier 8 component that provided complete immunity to many special effects: fire fields, debuff regions, stun effects, etc. Since these effects were negated, it was pointless to give those abilities to conquerors. With the update, the IA can still provide immense benefit but those mechanics are back on the table for interesting conqueror designs. Ultimately, we want to bring as much diversity and creativity to pvp as possible.
