9/28 - Gold Rush PvP Playtest
Combat Changes
Increased Armor Penetration of Crossbows, adjusted other penetration values
Melee Combat Style rework
To switch combat styles, go to the Combat navigation tab (furthest left) and click on the buttons. Some weapons have only one style, most melee weapons have two that you can switch between.
Combat Styles:
Slash (chance to inflict Bleed)
Chance based on weapon tier, starting at 10% for low tier weapons and increasing up to 25%
Bleed does 2 stacks of quick damage on top
Bleed can stack up to 2 times
Moving while bleeding increases bleed damage by 50%
Crush (chance to Stun target)
Higher tier weapons deliver longer stuns (up to 2 seconds)
Pierce (ramping accuracy boost)
Pierce effect lasts 6 seconds
Each stack of the Pierce effect now provides an accuracy bonus for piercing attacks
The bonus scales with both the number of stacks and the tier of the weapon: 2% per stack per tier
If a new Pierce effect is applied by a different source, the existing stacks are reset, ensuring that only one attacker can build up Pierce stacks at a time
