# RUNDOWN: MOBILE TASK FORCE

This update is a relatively small one that comes with an alternative but much faster method of earning Void Cores. RUNDOWN: MTF is a high-intensity dash to seize an abandoned Void Core shipment left behind at a refuelling depot. Blood Youkai make their appearance here, and can become a far more dangerous threat when mixed with other anomalies. Incoming hordes are more frequent, no other artifact types can spawn on this RUNDOWN type, and no FIRE EXITs or ESCAPE SHAFTs are present. You must make it to the train and escape on it, or die trying.

Get in, get out. Mobile Task Force Nine-Tailed Fox has entered the facility.

--- --- ---
# LIGHT BLEEDING REWORK

Light Bleeding no longer deals any damage. Instead, it now deals -10% HIT CHANCE and ACCURACY, and -20% ATK.

--- --- ---
# .36 Cal Freeman Revolver

Requested by Arasaka, this 4-shot .36 Cal is a high-damage, high-accuracy 1-handed pistol with an extended Point-Blank range. Found in the hands of the aristocrats of a Crusade planet, this little pistol can do wonders in the hands of a skilled gunslinger. Those shot by the pistol will also suffer 0.3s of PANIC, preventing them from firing so long as the user is constantly pouring fire an an enemy. It's qualities are boosted by its quick-release cylinder; an advanced mechanism for its time, relying on switching dedicated .36 Cal Freeman Revolver Cylinders.

--- --- ---
# Focus Pistol Revisions

- Black Gambit revised - No longer has any focus mode abilities. Can still be "manually aimed" but this does not confer any bonuses. Re-upped capacity to 5rnds. Damage increased to 65. Crouching no longer boosts hit chance. The gun needed more time to be revised as its's original form was too blatantly overpowered, but its' 3.2.1 form was simply not as appealing. We also know full well that nobody actually used the ricochet function. It was too gimmicky compared to its excessive base killing power and high accuracy. In conjunction with the Six-Shooter revision, the Black Gambit establishes itself as a fast-firing but inflexible revolver.

- Magnificent Six-Shooter revised - Replaced the double-damage aiming with a PANIC shot, inducing PANIC in enemy infantry regardless of if the shot hit or missed. This was revised as it meant that the Six-Shooter was *too* good at sniping with its insanely low miss chance. While it was eventually superseded by the old Black Gambit in terms of being overpowered, it was still in hindsight somewhat poorly-designed and rushed. With the revisions done, no more FOCUS guns will be making their appearances, at least not for a long while, to prevent diluting the actual uniquity of each special weapon. The Six-Shooter's Panic Shot encourages the actual "focus" part, where properly taking time to get the upper hand on the enemy can give the user a better chance at survival should he be unable to kill as effectively.

# BoredKappa's COPSC Highres

Additional highres artwork have been applied to the COPSC weaponry.

--- --- ---

Trinkets/Attachments:
- Suppressors no longer disable "gunfire noise", as this would prevent the proccing of useful trinket effects.

Equipment/Items:
- Firebombs - Updated description | Now causes PANIC | Reduced base damage per second from 100 to 25.
- M86 Flashbang - Revised effects. Now only STUNS for 3s, but also causes 6s PANIC - May affect other mechanics that rely on flashbang code.

- Automated Sentry Guns can now be recrafted at a Munitions Workbench for 10x Weapon Parts each.

- Added .36 Cal Freeman Revolver Cylinder - Ditto.

Ranged Weapons:
- Weatherby Savage Series 2 - Added LIGHTWEIGHT module.

# WEEK 1.5 v3.2.1 PATCH

Now, onto the actual update itself. If you're here to see the DEVELOPMENT ROADMAP, that will be above this secondary ping post.

--- --- ---

# Suppressor Reimplementation:

These attachments now return to the regular GIC Loot Tables - Afflicts hit targets with SUDDEN-STRIKE, granting subsequent shots +50% DMG. If the target is not hit again for 0.25s, the target becomes RESISTANT to SUDDEN-STRIKE for 480s.

--- --- ---

# PANIC SYSTEM:

Smoke Grenades now deal a special PANIC debuff which only affects enemy infantry. When enemies are in a PANICKED state, they will not use their firearms and gain +25% movement speed. This system is a prototype for future expansions into the Gas Grenade weapon category for items such as Tear Gas and Mustard Gas. The panic system implemented here is only in its earliest stages and will be expanded upon to grant more tactical options in the future such as with LMGs, trinkets, and enemy infantry interactions depending on their rank i.e Recruits or Veterans.

- The Dark One that eternally chases the player after finding the Void Core has had its' damage reduced from 24% to 10% per hit.

Dungeons:
- Afflicted Colony - Removed "Letheia" graffiti due to not having any real relevance to the planetary story.
- Khurtovynan Prison Complex no longer regenerates on a return trip to the same location.

Warrior's Flowers can now be turned in for money.
- Undercolony Black Market - Fixed incorrect values for Mil-Grade PCBs.
- Esther's old Incentive quests are now "abandonable", however I doubt this will do anything as quests don't seem to update after they're generated. Refer to Rylasasin's pin in the Help Channel if you still have carry-over planet incentives from Esther.
- High-Velocity Bullets (7.62x51mm NATO, 7.7x56mm .303, etc) now have longer penetration range (damage range after piercing before becoming a miss shot) and now inherit 35% instead of 20% of the initial bullet's damage.
- Shotgun Slugs now deal heavy bleeding.

As a reminder, players should update the mod manually by forcing the steam auto-updater to actually update as the auto-updater can be extremely delayed in actually pushing the content to players. One should first verify their game integrity and/or restart their Steam program. If this fails, one should instead unsubscribe then resubscribe to the mods as needed.

FURTHERMORE

Due to the versioning on the Main Menu Title Splash, players should be aware to check for the current version their own game is running.

The current version is v3.2.1

NOT v3.2.0 (this was the previous version)

Thanks to our new patron: Arasaka!

- Fixed incorrect ammo requirements for the MG2750 Drum Mags and DCMK51 200rnd Boxes. Added recipe to craft 200rnd MG2750 Box Mags.
