Revelation VR: 4/18 PBE Update: Tentative Balance Changes

[WIP!] [STATUS: PBE is currently offline.]

The PBE has been updated! As we continue the 8.9 PBE cycle, today's patch includes tentative balance changes for Kennen, Lux, and more!

Continue reading for more information!

(Warning: PBE Content is tentative and subject to change - what you see below may not reflect what eventually gets pushed to live servers at the end of the cycle! Manage your expectations accordingly.)

Miscellaneous

The skin bio for Blood Moon Evelynn was added:

"A seductive demon summoned on the night of the Blood Moon, Evelynn moves between isolated villages, wooing the residents until they fall deeply in love with her. One by one these poor souls will surely perish, their hearts torn from their still-living bodies."

Here's a video on the Mecha Zero Sion chroma from SkinSpotlights:

Context & Notes

WIP

1) ricklessabandon with some changes for Kennen in today's PBE Update:

should be some small kennen changes on the pbe in the next update. exploring something on the lighter side that will help out some of his attack-centric patterns.

2) Riot August with some changes coming for Lux in today's PBE Update:

"Another HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL Lux changelist going to PBE tomorrow. May revert if they feel bad.

Hypothesis: if E was easier to dodge, we might be able to buff her in ways that make her more versatile, including spell CDs, mana costs, and her ability to proc passive with autos."

3) Here's Riot Orphyre with a bugs and feedback thread for the Mecha Zero Sion chromas:

"Hey everyone!

Our final Mecha is here and ready to fight. All aboard the hype train!

Mecha Zero Sion Chromas:

New textures: “I am the prototype and the pinnacle - the first generation and the last.”

Ruby

Pearl

Sapphire

The chroma sets are now available on PBE! We hope you all will enjoy the new sets, but we’re also looking forward to hearing your constructive feedback. I’ll do my best to answer and reply to your questions and feedback!

Thanks!
