Ravenous Vortex
  • Explosion damage increased from 15 to 30.
Block (Nemesis Form)
  • Cooldown reduced from 1 to 0.5 seconds.

Increasing Ravenous Vortex's explosion damage rewards more precise detonations. We're also reducing Block's cooldown to allow Ramattra to block immediately after a single punch instead of two, improving the flow of Nemesis Form.

Void Barrier
  • Barrier now lasts indefinitely.
  • Can be recalled by pressing secondary fire again. Recall places Void Barrier on cooldown.
  • Cooldown reduced to 2.5 seconds.
Ravenous Vortex
  • Now hinders enemies upon initial deployment.
Annihilation
  • Damage per second reduced from 35 to 20.
  • Now lifesteals at 100% effectiveness.

Ramattra has been running around the lobby yelling at everyone to “suffer as I have.” So we decided to turn his Void Barrier into a permanent-duration ability, and give his ultimate 100% lifesteal—so he can make everyone feel his suffering for even longer.

Ramattra has started with a middling win rate in Stadium, but as his builds become more optimized, some of them have proven to be outliers. We're tuning back some of his Ravenous Vortex / Nemesis Form oriented Powers, and we're improving his Weapon Power oriented options.

Ravenous Vortex
  • Vengeful Vortex moved from Perk to Baseline ability.
  • Projectile now explodes on contact with the ground.
  • Explosion can now be manually detonated while airborne.
  • Explosion damage reduced from 50 to 15.
Prolonged Barrier – Minor Perk
  • Added.
  • Void Barrier duration and size increased by 25%.
Vengeful Vortex – Major Perk
  • Removed.
Void Surge – Major Perk
  • Moved from Minor to Major Perk.
  • Delay between bursts reduced from 0.75 to 0.6 seconds.

The Vengeful Vortex perk significantly improved the flexibility of Ravenous Vortex, especially when interacting with airborne targets. That functionality has been added to the base ability with reduced damage. Prolonged Barrier returns as a Minor Perk option, and Void Surge has been buffed and moved to a Major Perk.

-Base health increased from 250 to 275

Relentless Form Perk

  • No longer has half effectiveness while in Annihilation

Previous changes led to a healthier overall playstyle for Ramattra, but he could feel too fragile in certain matchups. Increasing his base health improves survivability in both forms.
