The changes to Vladyn are mostly tweaks to his guns. The Chakram weapon has been a tricky situation. First it was way too strong then it was nerfed into oblivion so we decided to get back to the drawing board. The chakram was entirely replaced with a new gun weapon "Doombringer".
Gildas changes were aimed at bringing up her early game and toning down her late game slightly.
This update also brings new content with the addition of Arena Mode!
