Legends:
Earlier this year, Respawn tried to balance Pathfinder, Gibraltar and Caustic better by adjusting their hitbox, but only Pathfinder really took the benefits from it. Thus, both other legends will get their hitbox adjusted again.
Starting with Patch 1.1.1, both legends will get a new asset added on their passive: Fortified, which will reduce damage taken by 10% (like an armor). It's only a test, so that Respawn may bring some more changes depending on the success of it.
Caustic:
- Fortified Passive Perk added, reducing damage taken by 10%
- Gas Damange per tick increased from 1 to 4
- Ultimate Throw distance increased from 28 meters to 33
Gibraltar:
- Fortified Passive Perk added, reducing damage taken by 10%
- Gun Shield health increased from 50 to 75
Weapons:
Respawn wants to improve the sniper rifles by increasing their power and reducing the leg shot damage. The Spitfire is also adjusted but Respawn tried to keep most of its power because of its rarity. Whereas the Wingman is nerfed (again), the Havoc is buffed.
