Release Notes

Content and Environment

Avernus

• Blood War
  • The rate at which the Blood War mechanic tilts in favor of either demons or devils has been decreased.
  • The rate at which the Blood War mechanic tilts in favor of either faction now decreases or increases based on how long it took for one team to gain the upper hand in recent battles.
  • The faction which has most recently claimed victory in the Blood War now gains advantage at a reduced rate. Conversely, the losing faction gains advantage at an increased rate.
