Armor Passives

• After hearing player feedback, we have decided not to fix a bug with the Siege Ready Armor Passive which gives more ammo to all magazine-based weapons, instead of just primary weapons as described.

Backpacks AX/TX-13 “Guard Dog” Dog Breath Has been reworked to increase its effectiveness and to ensure it remains distinct, focusing on its unique gas-based mechanics.

• It will now preserve ammo by only prioritizing enemies unaffected by the gas status effect. Once an enemy is affected by gas the drone will move on and target another unaffected enemy

• The targeting range has been increased from 10 to 20m

• The duration of the gas status effect from spray weapons has been increased from 6 to 10 sec
