what if I told you some of the already most popular and Powerful heroes in the game actually just got buffed not a direct buff but there's been so many bugs and issues in the game that certain abilities don't work the way you're supposed to and with the giant patch notes that we have we're not going over all the patch notes today don't worry but in those patch notes there's a small section about bug fixes and changes to Heroes that means Heroes like Lily may Thoren and others that are already really strong technically are going to work even better now hopefully you guys enjoy this one most likely you already have these Heroes so it's good to know what changed let's jump right into it so here we are on the VN test servers and today we did get a whole bunch of patch notes and everything in preparation for tomorrow's launch of the brand new season now remember if you're on global the original version that came out you're not going to get this for about another uh week but we get this one week early on the test servers there's tons of stuff in here telling you the rules things that are got unlocked there's a whole bunch of things that you can actually go through uh I might just copy and paste this down into the description down below if if it can fit but combat mechanics is what I want to talk about specifically right here because some Heroes did get some changes to bugs that were happening it's going to make them actually better in certain game modes so number one salzer not a big one here but fix the bug with his ultimate skill reign of blades was dealing one fewer hit than stated it's basically not changing it's just a typo change so again that one's not big the first one that is big though is for Lily may one of the strongest heroes in the game right now while rainstorm ballet is active Lily may can now properly benefit from artifacts such as enlightning spell and Ally skills such as leica's imperian blessing improving her synergy with rainfall bliss now in case you guys don't know what that is uh if you actually take a look at her ability here uh her here it is the exclusive here there were certain things that were not counting proper properly for Lily may that were counting for DNL because they are basically the same type of unit where they get certain type of temporary Buffs that increase them some way some form in her form it's she levels up faster and gets more growth those abilities will now affect her meaning she has more options now and one of the biggest ones is probably in PvP because remember enlightning spell is the one that's going to give her uh you know control immunity it's going to give her attack speed all these things are going to be really really big and previously this wasn't counting as a temporary stat boost because again it's only for 20 seconds and now that is going to count as a temporary stat boost which means especially in PvP situations if you're putting her in that very safe spot that's actually going to be a buff to her overall damage and how good she actually performs so uh number one Salazar Salazar not a big change Lily may actually is a big change because that's going to really buffer up also if you were trying to use Leica on a team with her on some sort of Wilder team it wasn't working properly now it is so that those are two really really big things next up we have eigor the Mad dagger fixed an issue where Igor's long range normal attacks occasionally fail to hit the enemy interesting so that's going to just up the chances of it hitting not many people I feel like use eigor but for those who do this is going to help him out a little bit uh the next big change is for Thoren there's a reason why I put Lily May and Thoren on this thumbnail and that's because thoren's change is kind of important too especially when paired with someone like Lily may fixed a problem where Thorn's exclusive equipment Soul packed failed to link with the Ally behind him if the Ally makes significant movements at the start of the battle and to be honest I feel like this is a one-w combo basically because of Lily May so essentially what happens with his soul packed exclusive a lot of people have him most people build him it basically links the tile behind him he agrees to take 50% of the damage from them meaning they take 50% less damage it gets transferred to him and of course when he takes a second fatal blow the Ally that is linked to him will sacrifice 85 % of their current HP heal him and give him another life essentially what was happening is Heroes like Lily may who go dashing at the very beginning of battle and honestly I don't know who else maybe someone like svina I feel like sylina might be another one because svina teleports to the other left side of the battlefield uh maybe bar because he can instantly disappear all those types of heroes were probably ones that were breaking his link and were not properly working so honestly it's like a onew combo with these two Heroes I got to find where it was again there's so many patch notes in here uh this is a big buff then because well even though it's just a bug fix it's actually making a combo much better which is Thoren and Lily may especially when we're talking about something like PVP so big buff for a fix and it just seems like we keep getting more and more fixes as time goes on now there's a couple very PVP oriented fixes in as well GR is getting a fix where an issue where her ultimate skill force of nature wasn't properly influenced by rivalry stats damage boost and damage reduction rivalry stats are what you get once you get your hero above Supreme plus once they go to Paragon 1 and higher you get rivalry stats which are AKA PVP stats they're only valid in PvP modes but that is something it looks like she wasn't being affected by same thing with festo festo seems like he wasn't properly being influenced granted the amount of people who this actually affects is very minor compared to some of the other ones next up we have Lucius improve the brief description of his skill Divine bash the actual effects are unchanged so there's nothing to really note there tail leans is actually a buff for dream realm so it says fixed an issue or tailing sometimes wouldn't immediately use her ultimate after Max her energy during the skyops battle that's pretty big because uh there were times where she would just sit there doing her normal attacks and you want taen always using her ultimate so any second she is not in her ultimate well that's a Nerf to her damage this is going to fix it that is another nice little fix uh there are a couple other combat changes too Crystal Beetle got a bug fix uh where it still applied debuffs after successfully dodging attack which I don't know if that's important and then skyops was actually firing off his skill glaring Ray more frequently than he was actually supposed to now dream round bosses work kind of weird sometimes they feel like they're using their abilities more than others sometimes they go through droughts I'm sure they're still kind of buggy overall but let's be honest out of all these changes here the tail taen one is kind of influential The Thorn one is actually kind of a big deal for certain hero combinations and then the last one that's just a straight up buff is Lily may with that enlightening spell artifact so let me know what you guys think about these changes these Buffs these fixes we keep getting them every major patch and it makes some Heroes better some Heroes worse we'll have to see how it works out in the future and remember everything you're seeing here was on the test server the VN servers not the global servers all this stuff will be coming to you next week on the 19th whereas it's coming to the test server tomorrow and we're going to show you guys a bunch of videos coming up so one thing I am going to do and make sure you guys are paying attention when you click on a video I'm going to put a spoiler tag on certain videos that have to do with the storyline I might I'm thinking about every day po in that zone story or that like the one or two zones that unlock posting the story cuz
