Damage now falls off sooner.
High Caliber: Reduced headshot multiplier, eliminating the possibility of a 3-hit kill.
Submachine Guns
Mobility is the primary strength of SMGs, speeding across the map to engage or disengage quickly. Some of the close-range SMGs were performing quite well, while others struggled to compete with the rest of the category. This week’s balancing pass levels the playing field between SMGs.

Firebreak
Purifier has been restored to its former glory.
