[aom] Age of Mythology: Retold Update 18.50572 [more Japanese nerfs, Chinese buffs]
(www.ageofempires.com)
Boit titled his video about the patch "The Age of Norse-ology is over! The time of the Kuafu begins!" I'm mainly interested in ranked balance, so my summary ignores the single-play campaign and Gauntlet mode changes, but:
- All general-purpose infantry made weaker against pierce
Greece:
- Various myth unit buffs
- Hero buffs vs myth
Eggy:
- slingers made slightly more general-purpose
- spearmen slightly less general
Norse:
- Major eco nerf
Atty:
- Cheiroballista -1 base range, but +1 range for each line upgrade (so +2 range when fully upgraded)
China:
- fire archer range reduced
- unique heroes nerfed against human, but stable against myth
- kuafu 15->10 favour
Japan:
- Kamaitachi (the razor-weasels) +30 food, reduced special attack area, increase hack armour
- Jorogumo (the spider-ladies) buff armour & health
- Yumi archer frame delay reduced (I think that's what this says, essentially?)
- Dojo units give less bushido
- shrine gives more base favour, but less favour from food
