Roze skin nerfed again in Warzone Pacific Season 3 Reloaded
The Warzone Pacific Season 3 Reloaded update has brought another nerf to the controversial Roze skin in an attempt to fix its glaring visibility issues.
Warzone features a variety of different Operator skins for you to equip, and the infamous Roze skin has received criticism for its frustrating visibility issues, with players calling for the skin to be removed.
While the Operator Skin wasn’t removed, it received a nerf back in Warzone Season 4 to help counter this problem. Now, the developers have nerfed Roze again in Warzone Pacific Season 3 Reloaded.
The Warzone developers implemented various balancing updates in the Season 3 Reloaded update, including buffs and nerfs to various weapons, as well as a brightness adjustment for Roze’s skin.
The outfit’s brightness has been increased by 70% to match the new lighting improvements on the Caldera map. This change is meant to ensure that her outfit remains perfectly visible during intense gunfights.
Raven Software stated in the update patch notes: “Just like our Weapon balance, we are very conscious that our Operator meta plays an equally important role in the second-to-second gameplay health so this change was necessary.”
Roze’s completely black outfit frequently blended in with the shadows in certain areas on the map, making it impossible to see. This would give any players who donned the Operator Skin an unfair advantage.
For this reason, the skin had previously been dubbed as ‘pay-to-win,’ so it’s understandable why the developers took the opportunity to make some visibility adjustments in Season 3 Reloaded.
