PvP

    General

    • Level 50 daily Warzone missions (No Quarter and March Them Down) now only require 4 Warzone completions (down from 6). Winning a Warzone still counts as an extra completion.
    • The Resolve system has been adjusted in the following ways.
      • When a player becomes immune to control due to Resolve, his Resolve meter will not start decaying until after all the current controlling effects expire (instead of decaying immediately after the immunity begins).
      • Players under the effects of a control ability now build less Resolve for other control abilities that target them. The exact amount of Resolve the player builds is based on the time remaining on the ability currently controlling the player and the relative strength of that ability's effect. If two stuns of similar strength (such as Electrocute and Debilitate) target a single player at the same time, the second ability would generate very little Resolve. However, if the two effects were applied so that the duration of their effects overlapped very little, each effect would grant its full (or nearly full) Resolve to the target.
      • A new Codex entry can be found in the Game Rules section to help players who are unfamiliar with the details of the Resolve system.
    • New Recruit MK-2 gear is now available. This gear replaces the Recruit set, which is no longer available.

To see these changes, the shader settings and shadow settings must be set to "high."
  • Several minor art issues, like floating objects, seams in the terrain, and issues with disappearing geometry have been corrected.
