Significant balancing changes have been made to the ARAMIS missile systems:

  • Accuracy & Variety: Missiles are now more precise and come in different types, including Normal and Swarm variants.

  • ARAMIS (Normal)Reduced the number of missiles fired and decreased projectile lifetime by 10% .
  • ARAMIS (Burst)Projectile lifetime has been reduced by 50% to prevent over-saturation.

  • ARAMIS (Elite): Now fires in sequences of 4-6-8 missiles, supplemented by sprays of normal missiles.

The"Jump In"mechanic has been streamlined: Selection and confirmation of ship placement are now handled via the Left Mouse Button. The Right Mouse Button is used to cancel the action.
