Reign of Nether RTS

⚖️ Balance ⚖️

ℹ️ This patch nerfs each faction's primary ranged units, reducing their damage by 25% to compensate for the invulnerability frame rule that was changed in 1.5.1 (which allows all units to take unlimited damage sources per tick). Before that change, ranged damage was spread across a few units and after it, single target ranged damage from masses of ranged units became overwhelming strong.
