Bugs and Adjustments

  • Kleya will no longer be invincible in a scenario where Luthen is instantly killed

  • Omega (Fugitive): Captive now counts down when any ally takes a turn, preventing a few overly creative escape plans.
  • Carson Teva's Datacron Unkillable state has been fixed 
  • Datacron - The First Order affix applies 1000% Critical Damage instead of 10% to the wrong characters has been fixed

Coliseum Balance adjustments: 
Adjusted balance for all Coliseum bosses at level 6+

  • Tier 6 will see score improvements at EL 60+
  • Tier 7 will see score improvements at EL 70+
  • Tier 8 will see score improvements at EL 80+
  • Tier 9 will see score improvements at EL 90+

Dev Note: 
When Coliseum launched, our initial balance pass focused on the early tiers. 

With this update, we’ve completed a balance pass on Tiers 6+ to better align their difficulty and scoring with the intended Era Level investment and overall progression.

We will continue to monitor progress and feedback.

Known Issue: 
Solo Carson is still undefeatable and the team is looking into it.
