BWR - Changelog 21/05/22

Thermal Thruster
~ Tweaks to mini-boost velocity

Vita-Saw
+ Increased buff time to 4s
Make the buff more enticing for weapon combos.

Syringe Guns
+ Improvements to visuals and velocity
- Spread increased by 40%
Improve visual consistency and blunting how well it does at longer ranges.

Sydney Sleeper
+ Jarate duration on headshot increased by 1 second
- Charge level only increases damage up to x2.25
Intent on resolving its split identity as both a support weapon and the bodyshot gun, emphasizing the support aspect more.

Baby Face's Blaster
+ Boost lost on air jump reduced to 50%
While trading vertical mobility for boosted horizontal mobility makes sense, it was a little too punishing for a core part of scout's kit.

Southern Hospitality
+ Removed health penalty
- Removed damage bonus vs buildings
+ 40% more metal from pickups and dispensers
+ 300% dispenser range
- 20% slower upgrade rate
- 25% slower sentry build speed
The anti-spy identity was pretty lazy, this is an experimental change to give it a more supportive identity.

Red-Tape Recorder
- Sapper health bonus removed
+ On Sapper applied: gain a 3 second speed boost
The previous bonus was too frustrating, this should provide a better reason for engineers to weigh up breaking the sapper or dealing with a more slippery spy.

Buffalo Steak Sandvich
+ While under effects: Speed cap removed for Eviction Notice’s boost and the GRU
The speed-cap was didn't quite make sense for weapons that make you vulnerable for wielding them while stuck in melee. Both bring you to 120%, which is what Heavy's speed normally is with the Eviction Notice boost.

Righteous Bison
+ Does 250% damage per tick
- No longer multi-hits individual targets
Getting multiple ticks to hit with this weapon was almost entirely based on luck depending on the micromovements of players and their orientation. This should make the damage more consistent and reliable.

Pomson 6000
+ Clip size increased to 150%
- Reload speed bonus decreased to +10%
Making its use more consistent with other primaries.

Meme: ????
Not the friendliest greeting.
