The Blanko Brawl update is now live! Please review below for the fixes and changes that were made in this update; as well as some new updates to vibes!
Vibes
50 Value Vibe
We’re introducing a new tier of vibe - the 50 value Vibe! Orange in color, you’ll definitely want to target these if you happen to see them in a party!
Solo and Poly Vibes
We’re introducing a new mechanic to vibe collecting! In addition to the vibes we’re all currently used to, Poly vibes, the ones where everyone can collect them, we’re adding Solo vibes to the mix! Solo vibes are vibes that only one Blanko may collect; you’re going to want to go for these guys first! And not to worry, if another Blanko happens to take a Solo vibe before you, or if you’re feeling greedy for other Blankos’ Poly vibes, you can knock ‘em out of them with weapons and skills!
