Riot Games is changing the way Hero Augment Armories work in Teamfight Tactics Monsters’ Attack!<\/em>, providing players with tailored reroll options that could destroy the Set Eight meta if left unchecked. <\/p>
Scheduled to drop into live servers on Feb. 8, Patch 13.3 will fundamentally change how Tacticains play TFT<\/em> Set Eight. The update contains a massive change to Hero Augments<\/a>, giving players up to four rerolls. Stage 2-1 options will remain mostly random, as players can easily transition toward a Hero Augment build that early in the game. And for Hero Augments that drop at Stages 3-2 or 4-2, the options presented to players are tailored, essentially giving Tacticians exactly what they want as a Hero Augment heading into the late-game stages.<\/p>
The system change to Hero Augments can open the door for balance issues, which is why game designer Stephen \u201cMortdog\u201d Mortimer and the TFT<\/em> balance team are focusing heavily on Hero Augment balance<\/a> for Patch 13.3. <\/p>
“We’re going to have a big emphasis on Augment balance moving forward,” Mortdog<\/a> said<\/a>. “And it’s going to be our responsibility to make sure there are a lot of viable choices.”<\/p>
