Fixes and Optimizations
Heroes
•
Rogue Range Protocol: Fixed an issue where turning off target movement in the Practice Range parameters and then starting a training session could still spawn moving bots. We've tightened up the subroutines, they'll stay put now!
•
Storm & Thor's Targeting Turbulence: Fixed a visual glitch where the camera animation for the Gods of Thunder (Storm - Thor) base effect Team-Up Ability was unintentionally throwing off aim. The skies are clear and Storm's striking true once again!
•
Combat Clarity Upgrade: We've dialed in the visual effects for a lineup of heroes to cut down on battlefield chaos and keep your superhero clashes crisp and clear. These visual optimizations include:
Base Abilities:
All of Jubilee's base abilities.
Team-Up Abilities:
Vanguard:
•
Mr. & Mrs. X (Rogue - Gambit)
•
Explosive Entanglement (Rogue - Magneto)
•
Voltaic Union (Captain America - Thor)
•
Two-in-One (The Thing - Human Torch)
•
Gamma Maelstrom (Doctor Strange - Hulk)
•
Surf & Turf (Devil Dinosaur - Jeff the Land Shark)
Strategist:
•
Vibrant Vitality (Loki - Mantis)
•
Planet X Pals (Rocket Raccoon - Groot)
•
Mammalian Bond (Rocket Raccoon - Squirrel Girl)
•
Oblivion Shroud (Cloak & Dagger - The Hood)
•
Favorable Odds (Gambit - Magneto)
Duelist:
•
Gods of Thunder (Storm - Thor)
•
Storming Ignition (Human Torch - Storm)
•
Moonlit Slash (Hawkeye - Cloak & Dagger)

Light & Dark Darts (Psylocke - Cloak & Dagger)
•
Devilish Affair (Daredevil - Black Widow)

In addition to these, we've optimized the visual effects for lots of other Team-Up Abilities as well. The list is extensive, so we won't detail every single one here; just know the battlefield is looking clean! We'll keep the Scanner running and make ongoing optimizations. As always, we welcome and appreciate your feedback and suggestions!
