Heavy Is GPS
PROJECT LEAD
September 09, 2023

Humans

  • Soldier & Demoman

    • Half Zatoichi:
      • Changed:
        • Increased health on hit from 15 to 25
          • 35 was too much, 15 was too little, maybe 25 is just right

  • Sniper

    • Huntsman:
      • Added:
        • +20% faster firing speed

  • Pyro

    • Back Scratcher
      • Added:
        • 20 second bleed on hit
      • Removed:
        • Healing penalty from healers

Robots

  • Stealthed Robots

    • Added:
      • Electric weapons removes stealth on hit
    • Changed:
      • Bleed now removes stealth on each bleed tick on hit
    • Removed:
      • Fire no longer removes stealth
    • This only applies to the Mr Paladin and Cloaker stealth cloak, regular cloak is unaffected by this

  • B4nny

    • Removed:
      • Doing damage yields damage bonus buff

  • Zonical

    • Changed:
      • Reduced switch duration bonus from 1.5 to 1 second
      • Increased damage bonus vs players from +125% to +200%
      • Reduced fire rate penalty from -150% to -300% slower
      • Removed faster reload speed bonus
      • This change makes it so long range non-crit dmg will be 38 per shot, and min-crit shots will be 71 up close 61 long range. And only the first 3 shots if you hold attack button down will be mini-crit. This should make it more rewarding considering how hard this robot is to play

  • Skymin

    • Changed:
      • Increased uber charge rate penalty from -15% to -25% slower
        • The latest change with longer duration and faster build rate med the vaccinator charges a little too common, this reduction should make there be more time between each vaccinator charge without it crippling the robot's power

  • Dr Crossbow Cop

    • Changed:
      • Increased heal bolts needed for buff from 10 12
      • Reduced clip size from 3 to 2
      • These changes made Crossbow cop way too easy and good compared to the effort needed, as he was fine how he was originally, just not played that much

  • Carbine Cassidy

    • Added:
      • +102.5% damage bonus vs players
    • Changed:
      • Reduced headshot damage from +200% to +100%
    • This change makes hitting all 4 shots in volley the following: 4xBodyshot=52 at max range.4xHeadshot=386 4xMini-critBodyShot=196. With these changes the reward is larger to match the difficulty of this robot

  • Crocotron

    • Changed:
      • Bushwacka to Kukri

Backend

  • MvM upgrade station stats:
    • Robots: Touching Resupply no longer brings up the menu
