Respawn has announced Sun Squad Collection Event for Season 16 alongside the patch notes. It looks like Ash is finally getting a buff.
Season 16: Revelry will feature 4 Collection Events. The first two have already ended, bringing many new skins and changes to the game. The next Collection Event, Sun Squad, will go live pretty soon, and Respawn has released the full patch notes for it.
As Revelry has brought groundbreaking changes to the game, there’ll be no major changes apart from some minor adjustments and an Ash buff. Appartently, Respawn decreased the cooldown for Ash’s Tactical: Arc Snare from 25s to 20s.
On the other hand, Ash’s Ultimate is getting buffed. The travel speed is getting increased from 700 to 1200. Moreover, the tether activation delay and snare grow time decreased by about 50%, meaning the Arc Snare will more reliably hit intended targets. To learn more, read the full patch notes below.
