Backpack Battles Update Patch Notes 0.9.5 Apr 12

Breakout hit Backpack Battles is still in Early Access, and the developers have released another balance adjusting patch on April 12

The full patch notes for Backpack Battles patch 0.9.5 on April 12 are below:

 

Hi everyone!

Last week, we added 6 Unique Badges to the game and we’re happy that you guys are having fun with them! In this patch, we play around with their drop distribution a bit. Let's see how we all think about this in a week!

Balance-wise, subclass variety goes in the right direction. But we can clearly see that Pyromancer is still a bit too strong and Berserker also performed very well, so there will be some nerfs. Don’t worry, if we find something was over-nerfed we will be quick to bring it back up! We also keep an eye on Eggscalibur builds, but at this specific point in time, we don't see the need to adjust them again.
