    149. Firearms in PvE
    150. Non headshot damage increased by ~30% for bolter weapons.
    151.  
    152. As we have discussed before, we want to close the gap between body and headshot damage for ranged weapons. The issue is that headshot damage calculation was very complex, because there were 2 sources of it: enemy damage zone sensitivity and weapon itself. Which results in weird multiplicative stacking that was very hard to manage and track. With this update we are doing massive rework and cleanup where we went through each enemy and adjusted its internal damage region sensitivity.
    153.  
    154. In short, as a result: headshot TTK (Time To Kill) of all enemies should be the same, while non headshot TTK will be lower by 30%.
    155.  
    156. The global headshot modifier has been removed from Majoris and Extremis enemies and adjusted on Terminus enemies.
    157.  
    158. The headshot bonus now depends directly on the weapon’s stats, rather than on the target’s stats.
    159.  
    160. Weapon headshot bonus was greatly increased for all bolter weapons to compensate for removal of headshot bonus from enemies.
    161.  
    162. Known issue: as a result of the body shot damage rebalance, the gunstrike damage of  secondary weapons shifted a lot. In some cases it increased and in some cases it decreased. This is not intentional and will be addressed in a hotfix.
    163.  
    164. PS. We haven't forgotten about contested health rework. It is still coming. The change is very big, very complicated from the technical side as well and needs to be playtested a lot. Since the Patch 13 didn't have PTS we were not comfortable to release it in the wilds.
    165.  
    166. Neo Volkite Pistol
    167.  
    168. Heat status effect accumulation is increased by ~16%
    169.  
    170. Contested health recovery increased by 18%
    171.  
    172. Plasma Pistol
    173.  
    174. Common shot damage increased by ~30%
    175.  
    176. The pistol's versions have been updated:
    177.  
    178. The cooling speed version now also features increased max ammo.
    179.  
    180. Default version is now a damage-focused version.
    181.  
    182. Plasma Incinerator
    183.  
    184. Common shot damage is increased by ~40%
    185.  
    186. Charged shot damage is increased by 10%
    187.  
    188. Burning Status Effect
    189.  
    190. Terminus enemies take 20% less burning damage over time on all difficulties
    191.  
    192. Melee in PvE
    193. Power Axe
    194.  
    195. Fixed an issue with the “Power Wave” perk not working as intended.
    196.  
    197. The maximum number of damaged targets for Power Backstep without perk was increased.
    198.  
    199. Fixed the incorrect cooldown value in the description of the "Restoration" perk: changed from 20 to 15 seconds. The actual gameplay value was correct and has not changed.
    200.  
    201. Power Sword
    202.  
    203. Attack speed of all weapon versions has been slightly increased.
    204.  
    205. Heroic Weapons
    206.  
    207. Heroic Combat Knife - Argent Edge: the description of the weapon perk has been clarified.
    208.  
    209. PvE Perks
    210. With this patch we are not doing much with perk balance. Let me explain our current vision and our next steps:
    211.  
    212. There aren't many perks left (~15 total across all classes) that have less than 20% relative pick rate in their column on hardest difficulty. Which sounds good in theory, but that doesn't mean that we are happy.
    213.  
    214. We need to add more "toys" for our sandbox gameplay before we start replacing perks, just like burning status effect or shock effect. They can be used in multiple ways, weapons, perks etc.We are working on many more of these that can help with perk reworks. After that, we can start the rework process, because I feel like changing numbers or conditions on perks isn't going to be effective anymore. We need more interesting stuff, and afterwards we will start big overhauls.
    215.  
    216. Our first priority is going to be Tactical class. While it's super strong in both ranged and melee combat, I think it lacks more defined "melee" build options.
    217.  
    218. Second priority is going to be Vanguard class. I think its biggest problem is that his ability is too one dimensional, especially when compared to Assault.
    219.  
    220. Third priority is going to be the Heavy class. Again, super strong and effective class. Lots of build variety, but it comes solely from his weapon loadout. His perks don't do enough to promote different playstyles.
    221.  
    222. While we are working on these big changes, you can expect continued minor adjustments and improvements.
    223.  
    224. Techmarine
    225.  
    226. Added Sanctified Wrath Reliquary equipment to Methodical Destruction perk so it would trigger the perk as well as other equipment;
    227.  
    228. Explosives Adept: Damage is increased from 35 to 50%;
    229.  
    230. Reinforced Position: Increased bonus from 25 to 30% less Damage and deal from 15 to 20% more Damage.
    231.  
    232. Heavy
    233.  
    234. Coolant Reserve: Damage bonus increase from 15 to 50%.
    235.  
    236.  
    237.  
    238. SIEGE MODE
    239. Added more items to the Requisition Terminal:

    263. Adjusted difficulty of the Siege mode
    264.

    269. Adjusted difficulty curve so enemies grow stronger much quicker and much earlier.
    270.  
    271.  
    272.  
    273. The intention is to make Siege mode sessions quicker and more intense. In addition to that, we are giving players more options for "build crafting" to make each run different. Since Siege mode rules have changed that much, we've reset max completed waves counter in players save files.
    274.  
    275. Siege timer reworked
    276.  
    277. Instead of an instant game over, the enemies will get much stronger each time the timer is triggered.
