Paladins brings a new patch in the closed beta. This introduces weapon skins, brings a new map, and makes minor balance changes.
The Glacier Keep is maze-like
The hero shooter Paladins, from HiRez, the makers of SMITE, receives regular new updates. In the current “Closed Beta 15 Patch” the number of available maps increases to 3. The “Glacier Keep” will initially only be available in the Siege mode, but is expected to distinguish itself clearly from the two maps “Enchanted Forest” and “Temple Ruins”. Many narrow corridors and winding alleys are expected to favor close combat, while certain positions will also provide wide visibility.
Apart from the new map, there are now weapon skins to customize the various heroes. These are, however, expensive and require 1000 “Crafting Points” to produce – equivalent to the value of 10 legendary cards. This is suitable for players who already own all cards and want to stand out from the crowd.
Aside from that, Grover receives some buffs. His movement speed has been increased and his axe now deals nearly 30% more damage in close combat.
The assassin Skye loses some power from her Poison Bolts, and Evie’s Ice Storm no longer slows down opponents as much as before.
Finally, there were numerous bug fixes and minor changes to the menus and interface. In summary, Paladins is slowly but surely taking on a much rounder form.
