Bugfixes and tuning. The Tempest gets more expensive, Marine lifesteal gets much stronger, and the Corsair finally looks like it is firing.

Balance — Nerfs

  • Tempest: cost 250/175 to 275/200 and build time +4s (slower). Tempests on ladder are priced for a world where it has no Tempest-specific upgrades, but here it can roll extra range and Tactical Jump, so it was undercosted for its ceiling. Still a premium slot-3 unit, just a bigger commitment now.
  • Blink Stalker: build time +3s.

Balance — Buffs

  • Marine — Lifesteal: healing 15% to 40% of damage dealt. This should be noticeable.

Corsair

  • New attack visual: a punchy beam with a splash-impact flash, so you can finally see the Corsair firing, and see that it hits an area.
  • Splash radius increased to 0.82. Before this change, even two units standing as close as possible to each other would never take splash damage.
  • Fixed the Corsair icons on the Starport build button and in the "Your Faction" panel. They were showing a placeholder.

Naming

  • The Stalker is now called "Blink Stalker" in the UI. Stalkers have Blink without researching an upgrade, so hopefully this makes that clearer.

Bug Fixes

  • Seeker Missile hotkey was fixed, so it can now be cast if it rolls on a Ghost.
