  • Most changes are directly related to our public high-ranking stats (Top 1000 per mode). Xiukai and Nadine (crossbow) had exceptionally high numbers, requiring additional adjustment.

Xiukai
High rarity food provided a lot of stacks of Juggernaut Chef, even during the mid-game. Xiukai's power was fluctuating too much depending on his use of high rarity food
  • HP Regen per level 0.07 —> 0.06
  • Damage dealt in Squad mode 92% —> 90%
  • Number of stacks of Juggernaut Chef received when cooking food: Uncommon 1/2/3, Rare 2/3/4, Epic 3/4/5 —> 1/2/3 for all rarities

Hey gang, Aesop here again. After yesterday's post, I was trying to figure out exactly what I'd found when a somewhat angry Lenox showed up at my door. She had finished putting together her new kickass harpoon gun and left behind a part that I so happened to find... and inadvertently steal. Did she want to try it out in the swimming pool..? But people were in there..



You can see the part fits snugly on the side of the harpoon gun. Lenox, the Angler, will be heading to Lumia Island sometime soon. Just try not to occupy any of her favorite fishing spots, she might not appreciate it...

There’s more Lenox on the way! Check out the Roadmap for the timelines and cast a line to the Official Discord so you don’t miss a thing.
