God Changes

Chiron

Herbal Medicine

Updated his passive icon.

Jing Wei

"Since Jing Wei's release she's been underperforming, and so in her first post-release patch she'll be getting several upward adjustments! Jing Wei focuses on mobility and basic attack damage to succeed in her role, and we want to improve that. Her ability to farm and move around the map is great, but her ability to directly box and be effective in teamfights is more limited. Increasing her base power as well as the buffs she receives, should highlight her great late game scaling and give her more room to box effectively."

General

Base Physical Power per level increased from ~~2.5~~ → 2.7.
Fixed an issue where her passive would not activate when leaving the fountain in Assault.

Persistent Gust

Increased attack speed buff from ~~25%~~ → 20/25/30/35/40% per rank.
Increased duration of attack speed buff from 5s → 7s.

Explosive Bolts

Fixed an issue with this ability providing ammo without going on cooldown.

Agility

Using Agility from the ground now removes basic attack movement penalty for 3s.
Increased buff duration from 5s → 6s when Agility is used from the air.

Air Strike

Increased damage from ~~200/280/360/420/500~~ → 220/310/400/490/580.
Increased landing range from 40 → 55.

Nox

"Nox is getting a cooldown reduction on her primary damage and clear, Siphon Darkness. Additionally, we're adjusting her potency into the mid and late game. Shadow Step now has increased scaling, rewarding Nox players for choosing to use this skill aggressively instead of just passively. While difficult to coordinate, dashing through an enemy into an ally, then popping out, has a lot more punch!"

Siphon Darkness

Decreased cooldown from ~~15s~~ → 13s.

Shadow Step

Increased magic power scaling from ~~+40%~~ → +70%.

Night Terror

Damage Reduction increased from ~~30%~~ → 40%.
Increased magical power scaling from ~~+60%~~ → +75%.

Ah Puch

"With this update we look to simplify Fleeting Breath. It now will damage and stun users who are healed during its effect for a flat amount, instead of trying to calculate the number of heals that happening. We are also letting the God of Decay summon a second Corpse a level earlier on Undead Surge, which should provide him additional sustain and burst power at a crucial stage in the game."

Undead Surge

Increased number of corpses dropped from ~~1/1/1/2/2~~ → 1/1/2/2/2.

Fleeting Breath

Decreased duration from 5s → 4s.
Increased damage per second from ~~25/28/31/34/37~~ → 30/35/40/45/50.
Increased magical power scaling from ~~15%~~ → 20% per tick.
This ability no longer scales off of number of times healed.
Increased additional damage on targets that healed from ~~20/30/40/50/60 + 10% per stack~~ → 50/100/150/200/250 + 50% flat.
Increased stun on targets that healed from ~~1s + .5s per stack~~ → 1.5s flat.

He Bo

"Now, water can flow or it can crash."

Atlas of the Yellow River

Increased slow debuff from ~~20/25/30/35/40%~~ → 30/35/40/45/50%.
Increased speed buff from ~~20/25/30/35/40%~~ → 30/35/40/45/50%.

Wait, so if they are buffing nuke mages that are doing poorly like , , and . Why didn't they bother to buff ? Did they simply forgot or are they just ignoring him so the three gods mentioned before can still be meta relevant or the balancing team is racist towards Egyptian Jackal Death Gods. #EgyptianJackelDeathGodsLivesMatter

While in my opinion the buff was completely unnecessary (balancing around Conquest at its finest- who cares whether she's broken in every other mode), I would say is in a spot where it's impossible to make him "viable" via buffs- they would make him overpowered, given that even currently it's possible to perform decently- it's all about positioning, it's just that people got used to escapes making many characters more forgiving.

Right now I see two potential solutions: either a rework (which I would rather avoid), or some change to - be it changing it into something similar to 's or allowing to move during the cast at reduced speed; right now it's a lethal risk - average reward ability.

Other than that, am I the only one who thinks the skin was a missed opportunity? I was really hyped at the possibility of him having revolvers.

@Daelinn, honestly I don't think needed the buff even in the context of Conquest, she was pretty balanced. could use a buff though, but I agree in the way you suggested. The first thing that came to mind was allowing him to move during . Even if they took off some of the damage from his 3 or ult and did that I think it would be a welcome change.
