In the recently launched Last Remains Update for online hero shooter Paladins, certain champions like Vora and Lex received favorable adjustments.
Lex’s “The Law” ability is not as effective as the developers had hoped. This is because enemies were able to escape it due to its long startup time. To make it more viable and appealing to use, the pre-fire delay is reduced to just one second and it now resets the cooldown of “In Pursuit” as well.
Vora has now become a more potent champion in Paladins with the latest changes. The developers want to establish her role as a flank, so her projectile speed, as well as her pre-talent mobility, have been increased.
More specifically, the projectile speed of her Deadly Scythe is increased by 10%. On top of that, Tendril has its cooldown reduced to 10 seconds to lower the downtime of the skill. This change allows Vora to propel herself toward her target more times per match than before.
