Despite releasing in 2017, For Honor still has a healthy amount of players regularly logging on to battle it out in multiplayer matches. What\u2019s more, is that Ubisoft has introduced new characters into For Honor through updates to expand the game\u2019s roster. For Honor\u2019s 2.37.1 patch notes are here detailing the new Egyptian Pharaoh hero The Medjay, along with chances to the out of stamina system and various bug fixes. For Honor Update 2.37.1 patch notes First up, the patch notes detailed the new hero The Medjay, giving information on his backstory as well as his combat abilities and performance. The Medjay\u2019s character difficulty will be \u2018hard,\u2019 and has a transforming weapon and dual fighting styles. The Medjay uses a fan axe that can be used as both a polearm which has good melee range and as a pair of dual-wielded axes. Additionally, update 2.37.1 improved the \u2018Out of Stamina\u2019 state, in that stamina pause no longer applies to players who are in the OOS state. Additionally, stamina is now fully refilled when getting up from the Unbalanced state. According to developer comments, this is because \u201cPreviously, players in the OOS could conceivably be forced to stay in that state until killed.\u201d So by removing Stamina Pause while in OOS state, players should now be able to get out of OOS more reliably. Players interested in reading the full patch notes can find them below: NEW HERO \u2013 MEDJAY When his friend Bolthorn stole the Scarab Bracelet from the desert kingdom, Neferkha knew what would happen next. He left his homeland to chase the Raider, following the relic\u2019s trail of waste and death to its heart in Valkenheim. There Neferkha found Bolthorn, a cursed shell of his former self. An epic battle ensued \u2013 with Neferkha ultimately besting his friend. Rather than killing the Viking, Neferkha spared his life and removed the Bracelet to lift the curse. Having witnessed the relic\u2019s destruction, Neferkha had realized the jewel belonged to a different time and place; it was simply to dangerous, even for himself, the last heir of the Pharaohs. The Medjay left Valkenheim so it might begin to heal. He became a mercenary to buy his way back home, where he would return the Bracelet to its resting place. Difficulty: Hard &#8211; Weapon Transform &#8211; Dual Fighting Styles &#8211; Good Melee Range in Staff Mode &#8211; Special Capabilities Unique dual utility feats &#8211; Unstoppable infinite chain in Staff mode &#8211; High aggression and speed in Axes mode &#8211; Stays in current mode when hit, unlike other multi-mode heroes &#8211; IMPROVEMENTS Match End Flow All screens shown after completing a match have been redesigned for improved legibility, clearer progression information, and with less disruptive animations so it is quicker to reach the options for the next match. &#8211; NEW OPTION: Deactivate the Parry Flash Indicator (in Arena, and all Custom Match Game Modes) Players can now deactivate the Parry Flash Indicator, which usually flashes at the correct timing to Parry an attack, in the Arena as well as during Custom Games. &#8211; This option appears in the Arena under \u201cArena -> Arena Settings -> Parry Flash Indicator\u201d, and in the Custom Game Match under \u201cCustom Game -> Game Mode -> Parry Flash Indicator\u201d &#8211; Developer\u2019s Comment: Competitive players in the Dominion Series have been requesting this option for some time. Adding this option is meant to reduce the efficiency of players who have exceptional reaction times and to limit certain kinds of cheats. We specifically add this as an Option only in Custom Games and Arena so that competitive play can intentionally remove the parry flash to improve the level of offense in their games. Normal matchmaking games continue to have the Parry Flash to help players learn the sense of timing to Parry attacks. Out Of Stamina (OOS) State is now less punishing Stamina Pause no longer applies on players who are Out of Stamina &#8211; Stamina is now fully refilled when getting up from the Unbalanced state &#8211; Developer\u2019s Comment: Previously, players in the OOS could conceivably be forced to stay in that state until killed. If your opponent had a quick Dodge Forward Bash attack, they could continually bash you to keep your stamina from ever refilling, while slowly killing you and limiting your options. By removing Stamina Pause while OOS, you should be able to get out of OOS more reliably, which should be less frustrating. Similarly, we\u2019ve now given back full Stamina whenever you get up from the Unbalanced state. The intent is that if you\u2019ve been unbalanced, the opponent should have a single good opportunity for a punish, but not more than one. Out of Stamina punishes are typically the highest damaging punishes available \u2013 while we want players to have an opportunity for a big punish when their opponent overextends, the reward could be larger than intended when the opponent remained Out of Stamina and could be unbalanced for another large punish. This change should address this concern and make becoming Out of Stamina less frustrating. Improvement to Targetable Feats thrown at a Locked target who is Dodging or has the Stealth feat active Targetable Feats are no longer affected by Stealth and should correctly track opponents who have the Stealth feat active &#8211; Targetable Feats now track Dodging opponents better, especially Grenade-type feats, which could be thrown off-target by a large amount. &#8211; Developer\u2019s Comment: We\u2019re changing how Targetable Feats interact with Stealth and Dodging opponents to make the feats more consistent. When an opponent had Stealth active, Targetable Feats would miss at moments where they did not feel like they should (ie. Your opponent was walking sideways). This makes the Feats more consistent in their tracking of Stealth opponents and no longer have Stealth be a hard counter to Targetable Feats. Similarly, some Targetable feats, such as Grenade-type feats, had a tracking issue when used against a Dodging opponent, where they would land in unexpected locations. With this change, they should land as expected at the opponent even if they Dodge. Targetable Feats are still able to be Dodged, but the result of the feats should be more consistent with the anticipated behavior.
