To protect the other realms from Darkheart’s unpredictable power, the gods have folded the one place where it is found into its own pocket dimension – Terminus. 

Some inhabitants of this dangerous realm see an opportunity to harness the Darkheart to their own ends. THNX is a mysterious biotech company that has taken Legends from different dimensions to experiment on them. 

But many test subjects have escaped, broken out, and banded together to form The Incarnates – a street gang headed by their fearless revolutionary leader, the Street Sovereign herself, Petra!

Battle Pass Season 8: Terminus features 6 all new Skins for the Incarnates: Petra, Xull, Hattori, Orion, a Progression Skin for Tezca, and an animated Epic Skin for Mordex. This is the most new Skins available in a Battle Pass season!

This balance pass contains a number of quality of life improvements for several Signatures and setup attacks on certain weapons, while also increasing the risk for some of the most used attacks and Signatures.

Gauntlets

We have delayed the window where gravity applies to the user during Gauntlets Down Light on hit. This provides more reliable follow-up attacks, most notably when striking an airborne opponent at the attack’s maximum range.

• Gauntlets Down Light: Canceled gravity during the Hit Window and Recover time on hit to keep the user closer to the target while sliding off of a platform.

Greatsword

We have decreased the Time to Hit and Attack Cancel delay for two of the Greatsword’s most used bridge attacks. This prevents opponents from dashing out of these strings in most situations when they are performed as quickly as possible. The Neutral Bridge from Side Opener has also received an increase to its threat coverage for more reliable use when the Side Opener was performed at extreme travel speeds.

• Greatsword Side Bridge (from Neutral Opener): Decreased Time to Hit from 12 to 10; Decreased Attack Cancel delay from 20 to 18.
• Greatsword Neutral Bridge (from Side Opener): Decreased Time to Hit from 17 to 15; Decreased Attack Cancel delay from 20 to 18; Increased threat coverage on the inside of the swing; Slightly increased threat coverage on the outside of the swing.

Orb

The Orb Side Light now has greater Stun to allow for more reliable follow-up attacks. This brings the input window for common Orb combos closer in line with most other weapons and grants a new combo into the Neutral Air, while also providing tighter Dodge windows for follow-up Signature attempts.

• Orb Side Light: Increased Stun of the final hit from 15 to 17.

Rocket Lance

We have decreased the Damage of Rocket Lance Side Light and Down Air to slightly curb the combo damage and overall rate of damage of this weapon. The Rocket Lance Side Air now has stronger dampening on its momentum and acceleration during Recover time on miss, significantly narrowing the possible ending location for greater risk.

• Rocket Lance Side Light: Decreased Damage from 11 to 9.
• Rocket Lance Side Air: Greatly decreased the amount of momentum and acceleration allowed on miss.
• Rocket Lance Down Air: Decreased maximum Damage of the aerial version from 18 to 17; Decreased maximum Damage of the grounded version from 19 to 17.

Spear

The Spear Down Air on miss now has less allowed backwards acceleration for more appropriate risk on this fast and long-reaching attack.

• Spear Down Air: Greatly reduced the amount of backwards acceleration allowed during Recover time on miss.

Ada

We have decreased the Minimum Charge time of Ada’s Neutral Spear to bring its overall Time to Hit in line with other anti-air Signatures. This provides more reliable use both in the neutral game, and as a follow-up attack after setups like a Down Light or Side Light.

• Ada Neutral Spear: Decreased Minimum Charge time from 13 to 10.

Dusk

Dusk’s Neutral Orb has received a minor increase to its Minimum Charge time to maintain a Dodge window after the increase to Stun for Orb Side Light, although this still results in a tighter Dodge window overall. Some of this power lost in the neutral game has been shifted into the reward for greater Damage.

• Dusk Neutral Orb: Increased Minimum Charge time from 5 to 6; Increased Damage from 24 to 25.

Onyx

We have decreased the Force of Onyx Neutral Cannon to better match its overall threat coverage and utility as an anti-air.

• Onyx Neutral Cannon: Decreased Force from 68 Fixed/53 Variable to 68 Fixed/51 Variable.

Ragnir

Ragnir’s Neutral Katar now has less Minimum Charge time for more reliable use both as an anti-air in the neutral game, and as a follow-up attack from certain setups like a Neutral Light. Ragnir’s Down Axe now has greater Force and sends the opponent at a more vertical angle for earlier knockouts. We have also decreased the range of Recover time on miss to better match its relatively long total commitment.

• Ragnir Neutral Katar: Decreased Minimum Charge time from 11 to 9.
• Ragnir Down Axe: Increased Force from 75 Fixed/51 Variable to 75 Fixed/54 Variable; Angle of knockback is now more vertical; Decreased Recover time on miss from a range of 23~28 to a range of 20~23.

Red Raptor

We have slightly decreased the Force of Red Raptor’s Neutral Battle Boots to better match its total travel distance before the final hit, as it could score knockouts slightly too early on some maps.

• Red Raptor Neutral Battle Boots: Decreased Force from 50 Fixed/50 Variable to 50 Fixed/49 Variable.

Thea

Thea’s Neutral Battle Boots and Down Rocket Lance now have greater Recover time on miss to better match their fast and tricky movement.

• Thea Neutral Battle Boots: Increased total Recover time from 22 to 24.
• Thea Down Rocket Lance: Increased total Recover time from 22 to 24.

Volkov

Volkov’s Neutral Axe now has greater Damage and Force to bring its reward and knockout range closer in line with other similar Signatures. We have also increased the Damage and Force for the tap version of Volkov’s Side Axe to better match its diagonal angle of knockback.

• Volkov Neutral Axe: Increased Damage from 22 to 25; Increased Force from 65 Fixed/59 Variable to 68 Fixed/60 Variable.
• Volkov Side Axe: Increased Damage of the Tap version from 23 to 24; Increased Force of the Tap version from 65 Fixed/56 Variable to 68 Fixed/57 Variable.

We’ve added two new Test Features to Experimental queues. Post Hitstun Dodge Consistency makes it so players can’t dash for 4 frames after being stunned, forcing a Dodge if they use the Dodge/Dash input. Two of Cassidy’s Signature Attacks have been reworked, including adding a new feature to her Down Hammer! We’ve also made adjustments to the Backdash Buffs Test Feature.

Dash Changes

An initial backdash will no longer punish players with extra startup time, which often happens accidentally and ruins the player’s intended input. Decreased startup time of Dashes while Dash dancing brings the inputs closer to the actions and lines up with the current input buffer, making them feel better to perform.

Live

• Backdash startup time (from neutral): 6 frames
• Forward Dash startup time (from neutral): 1 frame
• Initial Dash length required (before Dashing in the opposite direction): 7 frames
• Backdash and Forward Dash startup time (during dash dance): 6 frames

New

• Backdash startup time (from neutral): 1 frame
• Forward Dash startup time (from neutral): 1 frame
• Initial Dash length required (before Dashing in the opposite direction): 7 frames
• Backdash and Forward Dash startup time (during Dash dance): 4 frames

Post-Hitstun Dodge Consistency

Follow-up attacks are made more consistent across all Weapons by making Dash no longer able to get a player out of a combo earlier than a Dodge would.

The Dodge/Dash input already forces a Dodge when pressed while coming out of hitstun for 4 frames.

• A special case allowing players to bypass this with a Dash using a down-diagonal input has been removed.

The Dash input is now locked out for 4 frames while coming out of hitstun.

• This prevents players from being able to escape a dodgeable combo while their Dodge is down in some cases.

Cassidy Signature Rework

Cassidy gets an entirely new tool while retaining the original.

New Down Hammer changes

• Cassidy will now throw her lasso and trap her opponents in it.
• Bonus: Also reworked on Globox!

New Side Hammer

• Charge variant will perform the original Down Hammer tornado Signature.
• Uncharged Side Hammer remains unchanged.

Please share all of your feedback with us on our socials like Twitter and Discord! For more information, visit brawlhalla.com/test-features.

Gameplay

• Added consistency with Battle Boots Ground Pound. Previously, it wouldn’t act the same as other steerable Ground Pounds on release. Now, players need to let go of the Heavy Attack button to activate the ground pound – making it behave more similar to Gauntlets Ground Pound.

UI

• The Battle Pass Track UI has been expanded to allow for more icons to be displayed on the track – including a Legend Skin’s Weapons! This is to improve clarity on what items are being rewarded.
• “Universal Color Scheme” has been renamed to “All Legends Color Scheme.” 
• “Team Emote” has been renamed to “Buddy Emote.”

Art & Animation

• Fixed a bug where the background of Shipwreck Falls was not animating in Experimental queues.
• “Halo” Map upscaled for better resolution.

Localization

• Updated localization for the Raptoodle Avatar.

UI

• Fixed a bug where your Mammoth Coin inventory wouldn’t update immediately after purchasing DLC Packs.

Art & Animation

• Fixed a bug that made the Mongoose Emote always face to the right.

Gameplay

• Fixed a bug where “hold to pause” wouldn’t pause when spectating other matches.
