YAGER Studios is back at it with the first update for The Cycle: Frontier this year. The main highlight of Patch 2.7.0 is that a bunch of healing items has been rebalanced.
The Weak Stim (Common), for example, is available in the beginning stages of The Cycle: Frontier. Previously, this consumable item only heals 15 HP. Now, it can restore 20 HP, though application time is increased from three to four seconds. This is a slight trade-off that you can take since the Weak Stim is readily available early on.
If you need a consumable that restores more HP, you have the Medkits for that. The Weak Medkit (Common) can restore 100 HP, but its long application time leaves you vulnerable when you’re patching yourself up. In Patch 2.7.0, the application time of the Weak Medit has been reduced from 12 to nine seconds.
Anyway, the company has also announced that it plans to implement a fancy news system in a future update. This upcoming feature will provide you with important information regarding The Cycle: Frontier, alleviating the need to visit the official website.
