BUGS

• Iso-8 Fix: Stats for some characters were displaying incorrectly on the Iso-8 stats screen after swapping Iso-8 classes. This has been corrected.
• Iso-8 Fix: the Passive ability for certain characters was incorrectly activating twice when an enemy was eliminated with an Iso-8 Bonus Attack
• Iso-8 Fix: When viewing the Attack History in the Dark Dimension, Iso-8 Power levels were not being factored into the Power displayed. This fix will apply to all new battles moving forward.
• Hey, everyone! Deadpool here. My Basic Ability Description, “Duel Pistols,” now properly includes the Bonus Damage percentage in the upgrades. Yay! Oh, and I’m supposed to tell you that this was only a text fix and my combat is working correctly. Double yay!
• Ghost’s Ultimate ability, “Quantum Explosion,” now properly steals Health from enemies if the primary target is eliminated with the first part of her attack.
• Fun-sized fix: Stature’s attack animation was missing if she was tricked into attacking an ally (i.e. Loki’s Special ability).
• The Elite War Orb II now properly appears as a location option after tapping “Find” for Gear Tier 15 pieces.
• The Orange Elite Orb now appears as a location option after tapping “Find” for unique gear pieces.
• “x0” will no longer appear for Blitz Charge orb reward results if they’ve been maxed out in your inventory.
• Empowered Thanos now truly looks empowered with his corrected visuals on the character information screen.
• Fixed: The Orange Gear War Orb I and Orange Gear War Orb II now appear with their proper titles after tapping “Find” for an item.
• Phylactery tomfoolery: The Phylactery and Mythic Geode gear parts now have the proper images for each in the gear tree.
• Ability correction: The attack for Hawkeye’s Passive ability, “Shot in the Dark,” is now properly unavoidable.
• Smoothed out the feathers (and visual issues) for Falcon’s Redwing finishing animation.

Introducing the Skill Military team
With the announcement of Yelena and Red Guardian, we’ll be introducing the Skill Military team. It’s the ideal time to give Punisher and Killmonger the Military trait and build out a new Military team. Most of the Skill Military faction have a new mechanic that represents their use of tactics in combat, where they can take an enemy positive effect to apply it to themselves and all Skill Military allies. While Punisher has traditionally supported the Defenders team, there’s a few other City Heroes that can slot in as a replacement. And yes, we do have plans for additional Defenders in the future! And cue the rumor mill…
