Update 1.11: Season 8, Typhoon Remake, New Anomalies

Section titled “Update 1.11: Season 8, Typhoon Remake, New Anomalies”

Greetings, Commanders! Update 1.11 will go Live at 07:00 UTC (3:00 Eastern Daylight Time, 9:00 Central European Summer Time) on Tuesday, June 9th, during which the server will undergo approximately 2 hours of maintenance. This update brings a brand new Season 8, a full remake of Typhoon, new Anomalies — Battlefield Power Research & Experimental Death Knell and many other content. Below are the content of this update:

Due to the severe snowballing tendency of the original Typhoon, it became the only rare unit and the only unit without Range Enhancement Tech in 1v1 Mode, which also made Typhoon one of the least used units in the game. This remake will elevate Typhoon to the core unit roster, nerf its overpowered snowballing tendency, and make its role as a front-line chaff-clearing and anti-air unit more defined. To achieve this, we had to remove all of the Typhoon’s old Techs and add the following new Techs:

  • Range Enhancement Increases range by 40

  • Anti-Air Marker Every 10 seconds, fires a marker missile with a range of 160 meters, marking enemy air units within a 100-meter radius of the target. Marked units have their range reduced by 20 and take 30% additional damage for 10 seconds.

  • Reactive Armor Reduces incoming damage by 80%, up to 5 times.

  • Maintenance Array Every 3 seconds, restores 500 HP to the Typhoon and friendly units within 100 meters. The healing amount increases by 500 per level.

  • Field Reassembly When destroyed, the Typhoon begins field reassembly and returns to combat in 5 seconds with 100% HP. Limited to 1 activation per round.

  • Wreckage Detonation Units destroyed by the Typhoon explode violently, dealing 125 damage to all units within a 15m radius.

  • Field Entrenchment Deploys a trench at the start of battle. While entrenched, Typhoon cannot move, HP increases by 70%, Range increases by 20. If no enemies are in range for 7 seconds, Typhoon will leave and destroy the trench.

  • Typhoon Surge Starts with 2 additional Typhoon

  • Experimental Death Knell Start with 1 extra Experimental Death Knell equipped with 20 unlockable Techs

  • Battlefield Power Research Players will be able to select different Battlefield Powers to research at the Research Center. Research requires a certain amount of time, and the research progress is visible to both players. Battlefield Powers moved into the Research Center cannot be obtained from Reinforcements again. Additionally, the cooldown time has been significantly increased.

  • The duration of each Anomaly Combo has been extended from 1 hour to 3 hours

  • During Week 1 of Season 8, all Anomalies will include the Anomaly Experimental Death Knell

  • During Week 2 of Season 8, all Anomalies will include the Anomaly Battlefield Power Research

  • Added Experimental Death Knell to Unit Drop in 4-Player Brawl Match
  • Added Experimental Death Knell to Unit Drop in Survival Mode

  • Updated enemy lineup in Survival Mode; the enemy can now utilize more units.

In Season 8, we have prepared many brand new Season Rewards for you, including many Avatar Frames, Emotes, and Unit Skins.
