Paladins new patch OB 43 brings the new champion Maeve, a pink unicorn, and romantic Valentine’s Day skins. Hi-Rez has already deployed the update to live servers.
With Maeve, who made a name for herself as a very strong flanker on the test server, another champion enters the battlefield. And with Skye, it will be particularly romantic in this patch. She receives a heartbreaker skin. Other champions will also be adorned with pink heart weapons.
New Champion – Flanker Maeve
The community has been speculating about the new champion Maeve for weeks. Most were sure it would be a cat. Maeve is human but comes with skills that resemble those of a cat.
She is a flanker and sneaks up on her opponents by cloaking them in darkness and blinding them. She throws her claw-like daggers from a distance. Maeve has various abilities that give her more speed, allowing her to quickly run behind and around enemies. These are also useful for a quick escape.
In time for Valentine’s Day, a Valentine’s Day chest will appear in Paladins. It is filled with cosmetic upgrades for your champions. Skye gets a skin-tight, pink latex suit and her crossbow is adorned with hearts.
Other champions will also be getting pink, heart-shaped, and romantic skins. For example, Pipp now wears the well-known pink glasses on his head, and Viktor has a heart eyepatch. There are also Valentine’s weapons for some champions in the love chest.
Paladins New Mount: Candy-Unicorn
Players have been wishing for a new horse for Paladins for a while, and so yesterday some were excited in the Twitch chat about the Candy-Unicorn. It is white with hearts on its rear, has a pink mane and a deep red saddle with golden hearts.
Rewards for PvE Quests
There will now be rewards for the PvE mode – through weekly quests. If you win 5 matches in PvE, you get 50 Crystals. The crystals are available once per quest for each account.
Chests Can Now Be Bought in Large Quantities
Radiant Chests are now also available in large quantities. If you buy multiple chests, you get a bulk discount.
1x Radiant Chest – 50 Crystals (50 Crystals per chest)
5x Radiant Chests – 225 Crystals (45 Crystals per chest)
10x Radiant Chests – 400 Crystals (40 Crystals per chest)
15x Radiant Chests – 550 Crystals (37 Crystals per chest)
Radiant Chests – 700 Crystals (35 Crystals per chest)
As a quick option, it has been introduced that chests can be opened by pressing the spacebar or ESC. You can also now equip items immediately upon receiving them from a chest.
With patch OB43, bugs have also been fixed and a few items, champions, and maps have been adjusted.
