"Season 3 IGNITION" Balance Adjustments
Effective Date
March 8 (after maintenance) (PST)
Adjustment of Existing Units
Adjustment Details
Pale Rider
Since the Season 2 update, the number of units wielding shields has increased, leading to a lower win rate for Pale Rider and more situations in which it cannot take down its opponents. We have increased the number of rounds in Pale Rider’s magazine and enhanced the minimum damage of its hand grenade to give it the power it needs to defeat these tough opponents. We have also increased the rate at which its Repair Pod can heal damage, allowing it to better sustain itself in longer firefights. Bullpup Machine Gun ↑Magazine Capacity: 24 → 30 Repair Pod ↑Amount Repaired per Second: 120 → 200 ↑Cooldown: 16 sec → 12 sec Hand Grenade ↑Minimum Blast Damage: 150 → 200
Zaku II [Ranged]
Similar to Pale Rider, Zaku II [Ranged] has suffered from the increase of shield-wielding units. With Unicorn Gundam's passive skill buff (listed below), we feel Zaku II [Ranged]'s issues will be further exacerbated. In order to combat these issues, its magazine size will be increased and the cooldown time for the Smoke Discharger will be lowered. Zaku Machine Gun ↑Magazine Capacity: 28 → 30 Smoke Discharger ↑Cooldown: 15 seconds → 13 seconds
Gundam Barbatos
Long Sword ↓Stun Time on a Direct Hit: 1.5 seconds → 1.2 seconds
This adjustment will make it harder for players to land the Mace (Smash) after a direct Long Sword hit.
Methuss
Repair Cable ↓Amount Repaired per Second: 100 → 80
The amount of damage this unit deals has never been high, but the amount of repair it does has always been extremely high. This unit has been especially effective in high-rating matches so we decided to tone down its healing a bit.
Twin Shot ↑Bullet Size: 1 → 5
Asshimar
Asshimar's performance and win rate have increased greatly since the last update. In order to keep Asshimar closer to expectations, we will decrease its magazine size while maintaining its Napalm Grenade numbers. We also feel that Asshimar's survivability was high due to its mobility, so its HP will be decreased slightly. Lastly, the amount of points required to activate its G-Maneuver has also been increased. Unit ↓HP: 1,000 → 900 Large Beam Rifle ↓Magazine Capacity: 33 → 27 Punch ↓Number of Points Required: 6,900 → 7,800
DOM Trooper
DOM Trooper has been a tournament mainstay with its high usage rate, win rate, and K/D rate since Season 1. We will adjust some of its numbers while maintaining its HP in order to balance it out. Giga-Launcher DR1 Multiplex (Projectile) ↓Minimum Blast Damage: 150 → 120 Giga-Launcher DR1 Multiplex (Beam) ↓Damage: 50 → 44
GM
Our intention in the last adjustment was to make GM strong against melee units, but it has become strong against all unit types. We will return GM's HP to the previous amount while modifying its Shield Bash numbers and giving it a 50% damage reduction while the skill is active. This should maintain its prowess against melee units while not causing it to become overpowered against other unit types. Unit ↓HP: 900 → 800 Shield Bash ↑While Shield Bash is active, GM takes 50% less damge. ↓Cooldown: 4 seconds → 6 seconds
Marasai [UC]
Marasai [UC] has a low win rate and usage rate. In order to strengthen its combat ability, its main weapon's damage output has been increased. Since this will cause its Sea Serpent (Ensnare) combo to do too much damage, the damage of the Fedayeen Rifle (Beam Blade) will be reduced. Fedayeen Rifle ↑Damage: 227 → 240 Fedayeen Rifle (Beam Blade) ↓Damage: 300 → 260
Unicorn Gundam
Psycho-frame Resonance ↑Added an effect that grants armor (up to 100) when HP is at its maximum.
This adjustment has been made to make the Unicorn Gundam more effective when it has a team around it.
Nu Gundam
Though Nu Gundam's usage has been mid-tier, its win rate has been low. In order to increase its performance, we will buff its Fin Funnels. And in order to help it get more Fin Funnel stacks, Nu Gundam's HP will also be increased. Unit ↑HP: 1,200 → 1,300 Fin Funnels ↑Damage: 50 → 60 ↓Cooldown: 7 seconds → 8 seconds
Hyperion Gundam
Beam Submachine Gun ↓Magazine Capacity: 40 → 32
Hyperion Gundam has had a high win rate. It is meant to be a defense-focused unit, but its damage numbers have been on par with offense-focused units. We will maintain its defensive powers while attempting to lower its offensive capabilities.
Matchmaking/Rating Adjustments
We will take into account how much impact a player has on a match when adjusting their ratings. We will continue to monitor the effects of this function and make periodic adjustments as necessary.
There has been a recurring issue in which players leave matches, causing their teams to lose or for the match to result in a low contest, disrupting gameplay for others. In order to discourage this, we have increased the rate reduction penalty for players that leave mid-match and cause their teams to lose. We have also reduced the rate reduction for the remaining players on the leaver's team. However, players who were in the same party as the leaver will have their rates reduced as usual.

Notice: Suspension Lift for Certain Player Accounts
Hello from the GUNDAM EVOLUTION team!
First off, we'd like to thank all of our pilots for playing GUNDAM EVOLUTION and for helping us to continually improve the game and community. As many of you know, it is our utmost priority to promote safe and fair gameplay for all of our pilots. In order to accomplish this, we established a Monitoring Team that operates 24/7 in order to issue suspensions to players who cheat or participate in malicious conduct, such as online harrassment or inappropriate use of the chat feature.
However, there are times when our team makes mistakes. This notice is to inform you that some of the accounts we had mistakenly suspended have had their suspensions lifted. We would like to thank our pilots for their grace and patience as we continue to work to refine our monitoring and cheat detection systems.
Number of Suspended Players whose Suspensions have been Lifted
41 Players
Suspension Lift
February 15, 2023 21:00
Suspension Lift Details
In the GUNDAM EVOLUTION team, we are working to take appropriate measures against cheating and misconduct in order to provide a healthy gameplay experience for all players.
However, we have had a few issues in the cheat detection and verification process. As a result, several player accounts have been mistakenly suspended. We have lifted those suspensions, and we offer our heartfelt apologies to the players affected by this mistake. We are working to identify the cause of these faulty bans, and we thank you for your patience and understanding.
We will also be sending a compensation item to the players affected by this issue. If you have created a new account and prefer for compensation to be sent to that account rather than the banned account, please [contact us] so we can send the item to your preferred account.
We once again apologize for the inconvenience. We will be reviewing our monitoring system to ensure this does not happen again.
Thank you all, and we hope you continue to enjoy GUNDAM EVOLUTION.
