We are making adjustments for Leaders and Assists to provide more fun and balanced gameplay experience. The main focus of this patch is centered on Leaders that can be used more effectively, now with new stats, against characters with too much damage. Changes in EP costs, attack speed, and damage will help provide a more balanced and exciting experience in Power Rangers: Legacy Wars.
