All perk changes in Warzone Season 2 update
ActivisionWarzone’s Season 2 changes were massive, and they included a few notable changes to Perks in-game. Here’s everything you need to know about the updates.
MW3’s Season 2 is upon us, and as usual, the patch notes have dropped. These have revealed massive changes across the board, alongside the huge infusion of content across all Warzone and multiplayer.
A few notable changes include huge improvements to in-game health regeneration, weapon nerfs and buffs, and even improvements to ADS.
Tucked away in Warzone’s patch notes, the devs hid a few updates to Perks coming with Season 2, with some neat changes on the way.
Perk changes in Warzone’s Season 2 update
Per the developer patch notes, five Perks have seen some tweaking with Warzone Season 2. Here’s the breakdown of what’s changed, including dev notes as well.
- Flex Perk
- Revised audio levels while equipped.
- Irradiated
- Will now reduce gas damage by 20%, up from 10%.
- Allows players to replace armor plates while in the gas.
With this change there will be an adjacent benefit while using Irradiated. Being able to plate in the gas will open rotation opportunities. To accompany the fact that plates will still degrade in the gas, the damage reduction has increased slightly. This also helps to align the damage amount to be a smoother calculation for other systems.
- Battle Hardened
- Will now show the “resist” icon for the killstreak owner when a player resists the Guardian.
- Quick Fix
- Quick Fix will now correctly begin regenerating health when the player inserts an armor plate.
- Shrouded
- The deployed smoke grenade has a slight randomized offset so that it is not deployed directly on top of the player.
This minor change makes it slightly less predictable where the downed player is within the smoke.
We’ll see how the Perk changes play out, but Irradiated’s changes might be pretty massive, possibly encouraging players to play in the gas more than before.
