Balance

This week we are focusing on giving updated string options for some currently underperforming weapons, as well as changes to the Bow aimed at curtailing areas of excessive coverage. The most notable changes are happening to the Lance and Cannon Side Light attacks, both serving to create more stable and continued engagement when scoring a hit. We also have altered the Recovery time on some notable Signatures to better fit the average gameplay timing.

Lance

The Lance Side Light has been updated for further consistency across a broader health range, with a lower overall setup height. This will also provide users with more consistent interactions at different distances, as well as more reliable use of the Down Air at earlier health ranges. The slightly faster minimum charge for the Recovery attack affords lance users an option for knocking out heavily damaged opponents from a close range Side Light, while maintaining dodge escapes at farther range.

• AdjustedLance Side LightThis attack is now multi-hit for a more stable setup location before the final hit; Decreased Force from 30 Fixed/14 Variable to 30 Fixed/8 Variable.
• AdjustedLance Down AirIncreased Stun of final hit from 22 to 23.
• AdjustedLance RecoveryDecreased Minimum Charge time from 12 to 11.

Bow

We have decreased the grounded coverage of the Bow’s Neutral Light attack to better fit the more recent close-range coverage of the Side Light, and to enforce more meaningful choice of facing when using this attack. In a similar fashion, the Recovery has received a slight reduction to its area of coverage, along with improvements to Hurtboxing during this power. These improvements have the added effect of decreasing the range at which the Recovery will crest a corner from off-stage and have active line-of-sight to strike opponents.

• AdjustedBow Neutral LightDecreased grounded coverage, especially towards the rear of the user.
• AdjustedBow RecoverySlightly Decreased maximum range; Improved Hurtboxing to better follow the animation.

Cannon

The Cannon kit has been shuffled around with particular attention to the Side Light. Previously, connecting with this attack would knock the opponent forward, similar to the Neutral Light, but oftentimes too far forward for continued engagement and a generally slower pace of gameplay. We have altered the knockback trajectory to an upward-diagonal angle,
