New Lunar New Year (of the Kaithe) Collections are also here featuring the Dagath Yfari Skin and Gynfas Kaithe Skin, as well as many other fiery Kaithe-themed items.

Note: The team was able to find a way to allow attachment offsets to adjust on Vauban based on his overcoat state. However, there may be cases where these offsets are not perfect from state to state, let us know if you come across any issues.

VAUBAN RETOUCH
With Vauban’s shiny new Heirloom Skin, it’s only fair for his kit to match his newly-buff exterior. Below is a full overview of Vauban’s “retouch” — not a full rework, but rather some much-needed changes to make him more viable in 2026.
As part of this retouch, we have updated Vauban’s tips, including clarification on what Abilities scale with Enemy Level (Tether-Flechette, and Photon Strike).
Passive
- Updated Vauban’s passive description to match how we communicate multiplicative damage: “Deal x1.25 Damage to incapacitated enemies”
-
Enemies affected by Electricity Status Effects from Tesla Nervos will also receive bonus damage via his Passive.
- We are looking to expand this to shocks from all Electricity Status Effects, but this required more work than anticipated, meaning we couldn’t squeeze it in for the release of his Heirloom.
Ability One: Tesla Nervos
The following changes address our two main concerns: Tesla Nervos are hard to keep track of, and can be unreliable when targeting enemies.
- Tesla Nervos’ Status Chance now scales with Power Strength.
-
AI Improvements:
-
Tesla Nervos will prioritize enemies who are outside of the range of other Nervos to spread their impact wider across the battlefield.
- Since their Electricity Status effects now trigger Vauban’s passive, spreading out ensures more enemies are affected by this damage buff.
- Improved targeting logic to avoid invalid targets; the coil will now switch to another target if they struggle to attach (notably for flying enemies).
- Tesla Nervos can now target Ragdolled enemies in Bastille.
-
Tesla Nervos will prioritize enemies who are outside of the range of other Nervos to spread their impact wider across the battlefield.
- Nervos now attach to enemies on first contact.
- Tesla Nervos’ shock now triggers immediately when latching on to a target.
- Added a trail VFX to Tesla Nervos to help players track them better in-mission.
Augment - Tesla Bank:
- Added a marker to enemies with a Nervos attached so players can more easily identify who to target.
Ability Two: Minelayer
Vauban’s Minelayer offers four different mines, but one has stood out among the rest: Flechette. Our goal is to keep the mechanics of the various mines within Vauban’s kit, but make them easier to access. Instead of having to cycle through 4 different mines, we are merging them into two mines: Tether-Flechette Orb (Tether Coil and Flechette) and Vector-Overdrive Pad (Vector Pad and Overdriver).
-
Merged Tether Coil and Flechette into one Mine with the following mechanics: Tether-Flechette Orb
- Retained all existing Flechette mechanics.
- The mine spawns tethers that pull enemies to it, and will search for new targets if their current target enters a Bastille.
- This mine can stick to walls and ceilings.
- Improved tether mechanic so enemies have less chance of getting stuck.
-
Merged Vector Pad and Overdrive into one Mine with the following mechanics: Vector-Overdrive Pad
-
Stepping on a Vector Pad now gives Overdriver buffs to any player (or Ally) who triggers them, meaning Vauban is no longer capped at 4 Overdriver buffs.
- Player triggers also receive a 1.25x speed boost.
- Speed and Damage buffs also now apply to the player’s Companion.
- Enemies who step on this pad are lightly staggered after they are boosted off.
-
Stepping on a Vector Pad now gives Overdriver buffs to any player (or Ally) who triggers them, meaning Vauban is no longer capped at 4 Overdriver buffs.
-
Changed Minelayer casting to work with the Tap/Hold mechanic (Tap for Tether-Flechette, and Hold for Vector-Overdrive)
- This Ability works with the Invert Tap/Hold setting.
- Removed special HUD element for swapping between Mines since that mechanic is no longer present in this ability.
- Updated VFX and SFX for each mine to make it clear which one is being cast.
Ability Three: Photon Strike
Photon Strike is a flashy ability that is unfortunately overshadowed by other elements of Vauban’s kit (coughcough Flechette). The goal of our changes is to increase its overall damage output so players are incentivized to reach for it more often.
-
Damage changes:
- Enemies impacted by the explosion now receive forced Blast Status Effects.
- Photon Strike deals double damage to Overguard.
- Reduced Energy cost to 50.
- Increased blast radius from 5m to 7m.
- Enemies trapped in Bastille no longer get thrown about by Photon Strike.
- Reduced VFX intensity for squadmates.
- Added new sound layers to Photon Strike’s cast SFX and added a new explosion sound.
Augment - Photon Repeater:
- If Photon Strikes hits at least 5 enemies, the next cast will cost no Energy and fire two additional strikes.
Ability Four: Bastille
Vauban’s Bastille is an iconic element in his kit, but suffers from some outdated mechanics: namely the enemy cap, which heavily punishes those not investing in Ability Strength. These changes allow for Bastille to compete with other Crowd Control Abilities, and make its Armor Strip mechanic apply consistently to all enemies in its range.
-
Removed the enemy cap on how many enemies Bastille can hold.
-
To avoid possible performance or gameplay issues related to this change, we have capped the number of Bastilles/Vortexes that Vauban can create to 4 of each (cap of 4 Bastilles and 4 Vortexes).
- Casting additional Bastilles/Vortexes will replace the oldest one.
-
To avoid possible performance or gameplay issues related to this change, we have capped the number of Bastilles/Vortexes that Vauban can create to 4 of each (cap of 4 Bastilles and 4 Vortexes).
- Enemy Armor Strip applies to all enemies in Bastille’s range, not just those immobilized by the Bastille itself (including enemies who are ragdolled).
-
Increased the Armor Bonus Cap from 1,000 to 1,500.
-
Vauban and Allies receive Armor at double the rate if an Enemy’s Armor is actively being stripped by Bastille.
- This was implied via one of Vauban’s Ability Tips, but this mechanic never really worked as written. Now it does!
-
Vauban and Allies receive Armor at double the rate if an Enemy’s Armor is actively being stripped by Bastille.
- Updated casting VFX and SFX to make it clearer whether Bastille (tap) or Vortex (hold) is being used.
- Vortex’s Magnetic Status Effect now scales with Power Strength.
- Reduced VFX intensity for squadmates.
Note: Vauban has been modded for Range (and survivability) in this video to better showcase the Bastille enemy cap change.
Augment - Repelling Bastille:
- Renamed to “Enduring Bastille”.
- Removed the repelling mechanic as Bastille no longer has an enemy cap.
-
Killing an enemy in Bastille will now increase its duration by +2s.
- The time increase scales with Duration, and the total bonus duration is capped at 2x of Bastille’s modded Duration.
- Vortex’s duration is increased by 70% of its Maximum Duration for each additional Vortex thrown into it. (unchanged)
