@MrCarri-XThanks for correcting/clarifying. I still find it weird and wacky. LMAO. I guess we just have to get used to these stuff. Still can’t imagine a sniper magazine being placed in a wingman. Overall, still happy for these changes. Jaybiebs better explain why these changes were made. Who wants to bet we won’t be seeing any legend changes in the patch notes?

Here’s an update on cross progression because we all know a lot of people will ask about it when the official patch notes drops. A new festure will also be added, gifting. My friend said that this is a thing in fortnite?

@BigMacAttack8u Those changes were said to be fake, but after these confirmed updates everything could happen.@Cheese9Man The only thing that could change is Valk i think. Sniper ammo for wingman is a slight nerf so it's a good thing 😃.

Though I still find all of the changes weird, I love the DZK type of massive changes but some of the changes feel forced. Overall I like the change to mix things up since it's getting boring and it seems that they won't have much content after the initial drop again. Hyped to finally buy that Halloween Caustic skin this season but if the deathmatch mode won't arrive, the middle of the season will be empty. Did they say what map will be vaulted? Bald Wraith vs Bald Caustic?BP stuff.Level 25 and 50 rewards. AFAIK this will be the 4th battlepass with a Wraith legendary.Triple Take reactive skin. FINALLY!

The pros got their way again with the backpack and knockdown shield changes. Instead of fixing the self revive for let's say it would only work until the third circle, they removed the problem altogether. The backpack change is an indirect nerf to LL, Gibby and Mirage. The self revive is somewhat a nerf to mirage since we usually give it to him since he has the invisbility passive or to the same person who has the gold bag. No one really asked for the gold backpack to be changed though.

@Cheese9Man What? Everywhere I saw its said that the gold knockdown will have "Guardian Angel", I don't think that the ability will change like that, it makes no sense xd
Hope that's not true

@OldTreeCreeper Guardian Angel is the name of the effect that the Gold backpack has now. You revive teammates with extra health and shields

@OldTreeCreeper I think it's the one that gives you extra health and shields when you get rez'd

And this is the guy who initially leaked everything a week ago
I mean, to my eyes it just seems like the perk from gold backpack just moves to gold knockdown, without any change, and the gold backpack gets a new perk

@Cro_Pittt The Wingman change to sniper ammo is a 60% reduction per stack. A lot less Wingman spam from all ranges is a good thing and good players can still do well with it.

CP changes are good. Volt and G7replacing Bock and Rampage in ground loot is great. Interested to see what the CP versions of those last 2 look like.
Not sure about the other ammo type changes though. All depends on the loot pool.

I'm more excited about the KC changes though, TBH.

the original leaker clarified the confusion
