The patch brings a range of gameplay improvements, such as new weapon and armor balancing, reduced enemy health and shields, and improved jump mechanics. Let’s take a closer look at the changes.
Improved stability
In order to improve the overall game experience, several stability and performance improvements have been implemented with this patch, including improvements on all platforms (PC, Playstation 4 and 5 and XboxOne and Series X/S)
The following areas are now more stable:
– World events
– Campaign story cutscenes

– Online connectivity speed and stability during multiplayer sessions.
Additionally, several bug fixes were included in this update in order to reduce the risk of crashing during various situations. The developer also addressed some minor graphical glitches that were present on certain occasions in rare cases. Finally, some miscellaneous UI tweaks were implemented as well.
Added new content
New content has been added to this guide that provides further information about the four roast color categories and the various common roasts associated with them. Additionally, specific names of roasts for each of the color categories have been included to help provide a better understanding of the differences between them. The purpose of this guide is to assist in selecting a perfect roast based on personal preference and other factors such as geographic location
World Tier Changes
The November 16th patch for Outriders brings with it a number of changes to World Tiers. These changes include an increase to World Tier difficulty, tweaks to enemy scaling, as well as a new World Tier 15. Additionally, there are a few bug fixes and changes to weapons and loot. Let’s dive in to see what the patch includes.
Increased World Tier progression
World tier progression has been increased from 15 to 30, offering looters a much wider range of items to discover with the last few tiers providing some of the most rare and valuable loot. This increase in tiers provides players with more options in terms of their character build and should open up new strategies for taking on difficult endgame content.
Players must now progress through various levels of difficulty in order to access higher World Tiers, which can give access to better gear and more powerful enemies. Additionally, there is a scaling system that adjusts your character’s power level depending on which world tier you are playing in. This means if you are playing at a higher world tier than your item level suggests, the game will adjust your stats accordingly so that you remain competitive while still giving players an incentive to pursue better equipment rewards.
Players will also be able to receive exclusive rewards once they reach certain thresholds within each World Tier, including unique cosmetics and powerful legendary items!
Added new World Tier rewards
In addition to the existing rewards, we are proud to announce the addition of brand new World Tier rewards for players in our most recent update. These reward tiers will provide players with additional items for completing challenging content and making their way through more difficult tiers.
Players can now earn a number of items including rare materials, powerful weapons, and even wingsuits upon reaching World Tiers 12 and 14. Each tier contains three usable rewards, two being static and one that is rotating between different selections every week.
Static rewards include classic legendary items such as the Crocodile Shotgun or the Icarus LMG while the third is often rotated out depending on what is offering at the time. This creates a wide variety of options and allows players to play different strategies according to whatever is available at that moment.
These new tiers are an excellent way for players to gain access to some of the game’s rarest loot and also offer previously unavailable opportunities for those who have already maxed out their characters. With more rewards come a greater number of new challenges that require quick strategy formulation in order to reap them all!
Class Changes
Outriders patch update 117 has brought with it a variety of class changes. This update focuses on improving class balance, as well as fixing some bugs. Players will see changes in the Pyromancer, Technomancer, Trickster, and Devastator classes. Let’s take a look at what these changes entail.

Improved class skills
Enhanced class skills are an important aspect of any educational program, allowing students to better understand and apply course content. Class changes can range from minor adjustments to major paradigmatic shifts. Minor changes may include revised course material such as updated texts or additional lectures, while more significant modifications could involve complete curriculum redesigns.
When considering the benefits of improved class skills, it is important to recognize the need for increased student engagement and responsibility. Course-wide revisions may result in new expectations and requirements for student participation in order to ensure a successful learning experience. These adjustments could include increased reading assignments, group activities, or discussions in class or online forums.
By tailoring your classes to the needs of your students, you can ensure that lessons become more relevant and engaging for all participants.
