CalamityStealthEagle EyeSmitePatch History
Ultimate damage reduced
Adjusted the early and late-game damage of enhanced Basic Attacks
Crowd Control Effects Adjusted
"Dian Wei's skills allow him to clear enemy crowd control effects. We've reduced his own crowd control effects to give the enemy a chance to escape from his attack range."
Standardized enhanced Basic Attack mechanic.
The enhanced Basic Attack's dash prevented Dian Wei from fully utilizing his Attack Range advantage and would even put him in danger in some situations. Hence, we have improved this mechanic so the dash effect remains the same without a target.
Added a dash to his Skill 1 and reduced the extra true damage from his Ultimate
Dian Wei's high Attack Speed and recovery allow him to fight for sustained periods of time. However, without a dash, it's difficult for him to chase and approach enemies who have movement skills. That's why we decided to add a dash to his enhanced Basic Attack while making a minor adjustment to the extra true damage dealt by his Ultimate.

Background Story
“The beast within me has awoken!”
Wild and tenacious yet also a kind soul, Dian Wei the berserker had always lived a conflicted life. Born with ferali blood, he found it difficult to control the animal within, and the conflict between the beast and his gentle nature caused him a great amount of pain. Things only improved when he encountered Little Lute, a young girl whom he felt he truly wanted to protect. From then on, he was content to shackle himself with heavy armor and become a trapped beast. This is both his punishment and his atonement.
