Version 2.0.2 Balance Update
Odyssey Interactive has recently released a new update for their popular game Omega Strikers on the Nintendo Switch, known as the Omega Strikers 2.0.2 update. This update aims to improve game balance and provide an enhanced multiplayer experience for players.
Striker Ability Changes
The Omega Strikers 2.0.2 update has brought several changes to Striker abilities to improve game balance. Asher’s Pathsplitter, which is quite good at stun-locking and creating forward pressure, has been nerfed by reducing its effective range and stun power. Luna’s W.H.A.M.M.Y (that’s her missile) has been buffed by reducing its cooldown, giving her more opportunities to fish for good hits. Kai’s Barrage, which could deny too many opportunities, has been nerfed by reducing its rapid firing barrage’s rapidness and its range. Era’s Magic Maelstrom was blocking off large sections of the map too frequently and effectively, so its cooldown has been increased to make it more punishing when she has a poor cast. Rasmus’ Whiplash has been buffed by increasing its duration, providing him with more mobility and agency over when he can utilize his ability. Atlas’ Astral Projection has been nerfed by increasing its cooldown, making it more expensive to use. Dubu’s Somersault has been buffed by reducing its cooldown, damage and PvP knockback. Drek’ar’s Molten Bolt has been fixed to no longer gain creation benefits for the ability. Lastly, Rune’s Unstable Anomaly has been buffed by confirming knockouts on players close to the edge of the arena.
Maps and Modes Changes
The Night Market map has been updated in the Omega Strikers 2.0.2 update to turn up the speed. It was previously a bit tame in comparison to the explosions and firepower of the other maps. The Speed Zone recharge time has been reduced from 5s to 4s.
Gear Updates
Gear updates have also been introduced in the Omega Strikers 2.0.2 update, providing more options for players to choose from. Momentum Boots provide players with a Move Speed per Stack of 1.75% instead of 1.5%, and the Max Speed has been increased from 20% to 22.5%. Pauldrons provide players with Power of 20 instead of 15.
Awakenings
Awakenings provide players with bonuses to their Striker abilities, making them more powerful. The Extra Special awakening has increased its Special cooldown reduction from 35% to 40%. The Monumentalist awakening has reduced its Creations hit bonus from 20% to 15%.
