Hello, Survivors! As many of you have noticed, a couple of characters have gone through balance patches in the hopes of increasing their capabilities in combat. We hope you find these changes to be fun and engaging.

The first character that you voted for “needing some love” is Christmas Carol. There were a couple of things about Christmas Carol that made her good, and the team went ahead and buffed her up so she would be great. Increasing the amount of damage she applies as well as increasing her camouflage potential is just a couple of the changes made.

The second character the team has buffed is, in my opinion, one of the coolest characters in the game with some of the best artwork. He was an OG mythic that didn’t quite get his point across, but with some pointed changes, the second in command Whisperer, Beta, is here to make his comeback.
