EpicDuel's Buffed Debuffs on Artix Entertainment

Buffed Debuffs

This might be the most consequential augment update yet as we introduce many new mechanics to the battle engine including compounding debuffs and Energy cost increasing.

It's hard to believe we added 144 new skills to the game over these last few months, but our skill-augment journey has reached its end (for now).

Changes

Adjusted scaling for the following skill augments to match the adjustment to skill level:
- (EA) Fireball
- (EA) Barbed Grenade
- (EA) Static Grenade
- (UA) Static Grenade
- (EA) Plasma Grenade
- (EA) Static Smash
- (UA) Static Smash
Augment selection arrows now appear level 12 and up. This was done because it was possible to manipulate the augment arrows to allocate points in skills that player couldn't invest in otherwise.
