S21 - Valkyrie Tactical Bug [ Edited ]

[Midnight9746]

I had noticed while playing today that Valkyrie's tactical wasn't recharging properly.

What's suppose to happen:

- If you use some or all the fuel in Valkyrie's jetpack, it will start to slowly recharge after a few seconds

What's happening now instead:

- If you jump, the fuel will stop recharging, resetting the clock until it can be recharged again. I've also had noticed that getting on ziplines or doing anything that makes Valkyrie leave the floor can also stop the tactical recharge, but its less likely to happen than it does with jumping. Sometimes moving can stop the recharge as well.

Here's what it looks like:



Apparently this has been going on since the launch of S21, as it was talked about on Reddit 3 days ago:

Am I missing something in the patch notes, but I have been looking back and haven't seen anything about Valkyrie being nerfed with jetpack fuel charging, but when I sprint it doesn't recharge unless I stop and run normal. Has this always been a thing and I have just not noticed? I can't find anything about this.

im not a valk player but wouldn't you agree that since those evac towers were introduced she basically became irrelevant?

Not saying I'm happy about the mobile evac towers, and yes, they undercut her value. But in the scheme of things she's still one of the most over-powered legends on the board, especially taking individual playstyle into account.

@EA_Pulsar Hey, I am sorry I have seen this in Trello however is there any chance of knowing the ETA when the bug fix might arrive like could be some date if possible?

[EA_Pulsar]

I wish I could provide more details, but at this stage, we do not know when we will receive an update on this.

Nope. If you are trying to escape the firewall, she is still a much swifter option than an evac tower.
