Agent buffs and nerfs
- Several agent classes have also been tweaked, mainly the Sentinels.
- The ability of Sentinels to affect the game once dead is now gone as their utility gets deactivated the moment they die.
- Killjoy has also been made more stationary with her Alarm bot and Turret now forcing her to be within 40m or they will de-activate. When the player leaves this zone and re-enters these will come back online.
- To counter-act this nerf, the cooldown period for her to pick up her abilities has been reduced.
- Cypher has had similar changes on his post-death ability.
- Flash bangs' effective time is now increased with enemy players will stay blinded for longer.
