Robot Balance

  • Sounds

    • Robot spawn sounds should no longer get cancelled
    • Boss Theme and Siren should no longer get cancelled
    • Robot Spawn noise only plays when a player changes Robot
    • Robot Spawn noises should only play when the robot spawns
      • Previously it would sometimes play if the player changed robot while dead

  • Stomping Robots

    • Fixed:
      • Robots now take reduced fall damage again
        • -50% compared to before
      • Stomp deals -75% damage
        • This is based on the robots max HP, and should oneshot all classes except heavies

    • Added:
      • Can't pick up intelligence

  • Pyros

    • Changed:
      • Flamethrower bonus damage vs players increased from 25% to 35%

  • Stickler

    • Fixed Stickler not having the attributes of a Boss

  • HiGPS

    • Changed:
      • Destroy projectile from lvl 1 to lvl 2
        • This makes shooting down projectiles more consistent

  • Sentro

    • Added back to roster

      • Reduced AOE uber heal range from 800 to 600 HU
      • Reduced AOE heal rate from 145 to 75 pr second

  • Dr GrordBot

      • Righteous Bison
    • With the electroball ability the Bison felt redundant and didn't get much use

  • Dr CrossbowCop

    • Added:
      • -150% slower firing speed
    • The burst potential of this boss is very strong, with the now increase between bolts it's not as bursty and overall heal per second has been reduced, as well as his self defence capabilities

      • Reduced ubercharge rate penalty from -40% to -20% slower

  • Gotham Protector

    • Changed:
      • Reduced max health from 9000 to 6000

  • Gnome & NoFungineer

    • Changed:
      • Increased health from 1250 to 2000
        • As paid Engineers they need a bit more tankyness to merit their purchase
