Warzone Pacific October 6 patch notes: UGM-8 nerf & bug fixes
Raven Software brought a new Warzone update on October 6 that nerfed the UGM-8 along with a few other weapons, while also addressing some frustrating bugs. Here are the full Warzone October 6 update patch notes.
Warzone Pacific players have been exploring the changes that arrived in Season 5 Reloaded and it was confirmed that this would be the last major update of the game before the release of Warzone 2.0.
However, Raven Software wanted to implement a few weapon balance updates and bug fixes ahead of the sequel’s arrival. The October 6 update brought notable changes, and we’ve got the full patch notes.
Weapon nerfs in Warzone Pacific October 6 update
Four guns received nerfs in the October 6 update, starting with the UGM-8 which had its minimum damage reduced from 22 to 21. The weapon was already nerfed in Season 5 Reloaded but experts like JGOD still consider it meta.
The Lienna 57 LMG’s upper torso damage multiplier was brought down to 1.0, and its minimum damage was decreased to 24. The Gorenko Anti-Tank Rifle received a nerf to its bullet velocity and the Armaguerra 43 SMG had its minimum damage reduced in this Warzone update.
