PSE Burst Readjustments  (NEW)

  • Players have lamented over the recent changes made to PSE Bursts. This adjustment seemed to counteract the effects of a bug known as "Exit Bursting" but it appears this correction has affected regular PSE Bursts as well. Though they will continue to prevent the bug from occurring,  they have decided to shorten enemy respawn times under PSE Bursts. They will continue to watch the situation and make even more adjustments if necessary.
