Nanoswarm
- Added a brief windup before damage begins.
- DPS reduced from 60 >>> 40.
- Visual effects have been added to make it easier to spot the grenade on the ground Stealth audio range has been slightly increased
- Killjoy's Nanoswarm has been a terror to play against. It’s meant to be a strong stalling and post plant tool—but we feel it’s currently dealing far too much damage and players aren’t able to engage in the desired counterplay.
Turret
- No longer revealed by Sova’s Recon Bolt
- More effectively shoots at an enemy’s last known location
