The Nemesis Update

• Movement speed while charging Tentacle Strike Tier 3 increased to 4.0m/s (was 3.8m/s).
• Shattered S.T.A.R.S. Badge effect duration increased to 60 seconds (was 30 seconds).
• Iridescent Umbrella Badge effect duration increased to 30 seconds (was 15 seconds, but was erroneously displayed as 12 seconds).
• Ritual of The Nemesis reduced to reaching maximum Mutation Rate one time (was 4).

Dev note: The Nemesis came out in a good state, but has been underperforming slightly in higher skill brackets. These players tend to hit Mutation Rate 3 more often, so a buff here should give him a slight boost at that level of play. Additionally, we have buffed two addons that were underperforming to make them more viable, and made the associated ritual less of a pain to complete.

• Various bug fixes and improvements to address performance issues on the Family Residence, Sanctum of Wrath and Midwich Elementary School.
• Blood Lodge, Dead Dawg Saloon and The Game maps are re-enabled.
