Shield Swipe Is now an ability and does not trigger global cooldown.
Recast time has been adjusted to 15 seconds.

someday my other primal ponies will be rele-

HOLY SHIT

The Bowl of Embers (Extreme) / The Howling Eye (Extreme) / The Navel (Extreme) / Thornmarch (Extreme) / The Whorleater (Extreme) / The Striking Tree (Extreme) / Akh Afah Amphitheatre (Extreme)

[2.0] To accommodate various connection speeds and latencies, the ninja abilities Ten, Chi, and Jin have been adjusted.

That's great. I would have loved to know "how" they were adjusted, but I guess I'll have to wait and see.

[TheUltimate3]

I think my eyes are broken, is there Spanish in the patch notes?



That roe in the back be fly as fu.

[Phireblast]

[2.0] The PlayStation®4 DUALSHOCK®4 controller can now be used on the Windows version.

Thank goodne-


Functions such as the touchpad will be disabled.

=/.

Unless the share button acts as a touchpad click in place like with SCPserver, i'm not sold.

[Tsukino]

Tataru is no longer available as an opponent for Triple Triad.

/panic motion

[Zeonx]

Wait if Tataru is not a person to fight in triple triad does this mean the cards you get from her aren't going to be available or is there another way to get them?
Or is what they said existing cards will be gained from different means talking about her cards?

Also shield swipe? I wonder why shield bash isn't like dark knights stun, where they can stun freely without it being connected to other moves.

Specialist only recipes...i'm sure everyone saw that coming.


Prepare for bitching folks.
