Is the Blight getting any substantial changes before release, or are just bug fixes?

I'm asking cause McLean just said on stream, that , the current build is not a weak old.

He explained how he poorly worded what he wanted to say last time, he was meant to say that her already fixed some bugs , current present on the PTB version.

So, which one it is?

Have Blight gone through some substantial changes or did he just got some bug fixes?

    I guess they won't tell us because reasons. I think he wouldn't get much better and they are simply waiting to the release, so they would not have to bother fixing him much in next few years

    I hope at least somewhat more than bug fixes. Double bumping into things seems like a fundamental design flaw that should have been addressed way earlier on than it was.

    From what I've been able to determine based upon discussions in his Discord server, this is ROUGHLY what I believe is being changed:

    -Double Stun is going to be removed.

    -Being able to swing and miss an attack to freely cancel the slam and not get a stun is being removed. This will trigger the stun now.

    -His the speed at which his power recharges is going to increase.

    -His stun duration is going to decrease to approximately what it would be to have missed a melee attack. Difference being his head is going to be down while recovering instead of being upright for the missed attack.

    -Collision is going to be fixed so it's not so finicky with his power.

    -Camera angle is going to be adjust from it's current location, his belt buckle, up to where it's supposed to be, his head.

    Remember, I am not a dev. All information I have is tertiary at best. As such, the information I've got might be wrong. The three things I know for certain that are happening are the camera angle, the double stun, and the melee swing with no cool down cancel of his power.

    Thanks for this info.

    If they really increase the rate of power recovery, it's night suggest they want you to hit someone, leave then and go somewhere else quickly.

    Spread the damage an keep bouncing from place to place.

    Not a problem. Like I said I have no specifics and everything is subject to change. The only thing I know for certain are the three main issues he has being changed.
