General Updates

Bug Fixes
  • Hunter’s Quickblade can no longer trigger from damage over time effects that are applied by Pestilus’ Moth (M1) or Ashka’s Fireball (M1)
  • Fixed a bug during airdrop landings where the camera would occasionally make a quick and heavy yank towards the center of the map
  • Fixed an issue where kills would become increasingly unresponsive as a match progressed.
  • Fixed a bug causing enemy movement to sometimes feel laggy.
  • Alysia’s Ice Lance (M2) Legendary Bonus now properly works when not hitting a target
API
  • Made some internal changes to how we report data to the third party API, which hopefully will fix the issues which occurred for third party data consumers with the recent launch of Battlerite Royale. It should now work just like it did back before the launch.
UI
  • Fixed an issue where players with a lot of friend requests would receive a large wave of notifications upon login.
  • Fixed an issue where Champion statistics did not always show correct data in the profile
Matchmaking and Rating Changes

The matchmaker has seen a few adjustments that should more accurately reflect player performance in a given match. If a player wants to make it to the top, placing well is still important but so is getting a few kills. Overall, there’s also a much larger middle ground where your rank won’t change much whereas the old system you either gained a lot of MMR or lost a bit each match. Due to the fact that the new ranking system is harsher than the previous, we are rolling out a soft reset to allow players to get to their actual ratings more quickly.

  • Soft reset to everyone’s ranking. The higher your current rank, the bigger the reset, up to a maximum of 2 leagues.
  • The leaderboard and win/loss statistics will be cleared.
  • Match Score has been changed to better reflect player performance. It is no longer possible to get to climb to Champion League without kills.
  • Rating change based on difference between Match Score and your MMR has been adjusted to allow for faster adjustments for both gaining points and losing points at the extreme ends. Additionally, there is a wider spread of point change in the center. This will make it more difficult than before to gain a large amount of rating from a match when your performance wasn’t great.
  • Newly created teams are no longer always in bronze. The initial rank is based on the ranking of both players making up the team.

Gameplay Upates

Resurrection Shrines
  • Number of Shrines increased from 5 to 7
  • Item quality of ability drops from reviving now scales with elapsed game time. Resurrecting early grants Common (green) abilities and late game grants a mix of Rare and Epic (blue and purple) abilities
Storm Wyvern
  • Improved clarity on the minimap during skydiving phase
    • Each wyvern is now marked on the map. Your wyvern is colored blue and the other is red
    • The flight path of each wyvern is now visible to everyone
