Urna de almas Mecánicas 1

\[ Urn / King of the Hill ]
Unstable Rift no longer requires an Urn delivery to trigger the start of the event. It now has a variable start time of +/- 1 minute. There is a global announcement 25s before it spawns. 60s before that there is also an in-world only visual effect to let you know which lane it'll randomly spawn in.
Unstable Rift bounty increased by 35% (to account for the 35% loss with no urn runner bounty, overall objective bounty is unchanged)
Unstable Rift no longer grants +1 permanent buff to each player (there is also no +3 buffs to the urn runner)
Urn running is now its own objective. Spawns on either end of the map (where the previous neutral pickup locations were), and gets delivered to the opposite end. Spawns at 10/15/20/25/etc.
Urn cannot be manually dropped. It gets dropped when you get hit with a light or heavy melee, are stunned or are killed. It stays where it drops and does not walk back home.
Urn runner can no longer parry
Urn is deposited immediately at the drop off point.
Urn bounty when deposited is worth 250 + 70/min for just the urn runner. Still has the comeback bounty component. Upon deposit all of the souls are released as orbs into the air (if another ally secures the orbs, they share the bounty with the urn runner).
Urn runner gets +4 permanent buffs on deposit
Urn is now louder when it talks and is easier to hear by nearby enemies
After 3 Minutes from spawn the Urn will start walking very slowly on his own towards the deposit location
This spawns the Urn

General 36 changes 6 5

King of the Hill objective has been rethemed and renamed to "Unstable Rift"
Unstable Rift spawn interval increased from every 6 minutes to every 7 minutes
Unstable Rift comeback bonuses (resists in the area, extra comeback bounty, and trailing/leading team claiming timer) now all scale linearly based on the amount of NW they are trailing (scales from no bonus at 0% NW behind to full bonus at 15% NW behind)
The team that secures the Unstable Rift now also has a wave of 5 Rift Troopers sent down from the rift location. When trailing, spawns up to 12 troopers instead (using the same linear ramp from 0% NW to -15% NW)
Rift Troopers drop no souls when killed
Any players in the Unstable Rift Zone are now revealed on the minimap
Urn runner's passive bonuses while holding it now scales based on how behind you are, rather than being on or off (same as the Unstable Rift 0%-15% NW linear scaling). Bonuses are the same as the previous urn runner bonuses.
There are two debug commands you can use to test these out
citadel_force_spawn_idol
citadel_koth_dev_test_spawn
This moves your hero and spawns the Unstable Rift in the early warning state then quickly transitions to the 25s broadcasted timer
