General Combat

Hitbox update

We have done a large pass on hitbox placement and sizes across the cast to better match attack visuals to hitbox placement. Hitbox changes are listed in the character patch notes.

Fast fall speed change

In previous patches, a fighter that input a fast fall would accelerate to their maximum fall speed. With this patch we are looking to increase the impact of fast fall by allowing players to accelerate past their maximum fall speed while they are fast falling. Many aerial attacks now limit the ability to fast fall during attack recovery to prevent accidental self-destructs. These attacks are listed in the character patch notes.

• Maximum fast fall speed increased to 3750 from 2800. Maximum fall speed unchanged at 2800.
• Fast fall now has a minimum duration of 12 frames

Short Hops

The lowest possible height for a fighter’s grounded jump typically launches the fighter too high to hit grounded opponents. With this change we are looking to give players more options to use aerial attacks when close to the ground.

• When inputting a fighter’s grounded jump, releasing the jump input before jumpsquat has completed (5 frames) will launch the fighter upward at half of their normal jump velocity. 

Parries

• Successful parries can no longer be canceled into another neutral dodge. This will fix issues where players have been accidentally neutral dodging after a successful parry
• Fighters now receive 10 frames of invulnerability after a successful parry

Hitsparks

Hitsparks have been updated for all attacks, including a major fix for directional hitsparks that have returns from the Open Beta.

Damage stat tracking

Damage tracking for certain projectiles and multi-hit attacks have been fixed. This will fix incorrect damage numbers being shown in end-of-game stats, badges that track damage dealt, and battlepass/event missions that track damage dealt.

Automatic Techs

Automatic techs have helped tremendously with mitigating toxic infinite combos built around ground-bounces. Unfortunately, they have also introduced new toxic combo routes against large characters that cannot tech far enough away to mix up their recovery direction. With this change we hope to increase the power of directional techs to remove these problem combo routes.

• Automatic tech forward launch velocity increased to 5200 from 4400

General Combat Changes

• Fighters will now push other fighters when colliding on the ground
• Enraged Buff no longer applies Weakened Debuff on-hit
• Fixed an issue where hitstun would not be properly applied when two attacks connected in quick succession

Testing Grounds

Shields

• Shield Break Attacks (Neutral Dodge + Attack input) standardized to have more consistent frame data and sizes
• Shield breaks from Shield Break Attacks and stamina drain both pop up victims for a consistent punish window
