Y8S3.3 PATCH NOTES
See the upcoming changes to Rainbow Six Siege with the release of Y8S3.3.
OPERATOR BALANCING
FROST
Operators who fall onto a Welcome Mat will be able to remove it from their leg by themselves or with the help of a teammate.
Operators who fall onto a Welcome Mat are considered downed. R6 allows a player to be in downed only once per round, if they have been downed already, they will be eliminated if they fall onto a Welcome Mat.
If Operators remove the trap without the help of a teammate, a debuff will be applied to them for 60 seconds with these effects:
Move 20% slower and can't sprint.
Leave a trail of blood behind.
Health is set to 20, same health you get after standing up from being downed.
