Black Ops 6 & Warzone March 11 update patch notes: D1.3 Sector buff & Superi 46 nerf

The latest Black Ops 6 update buffs the D1.3 Sector to encourage players to use other ammo types and makes a few minor weapon-balancing changes in Warzone.

Season 2 Reloaded introduced the D1.3 Sector, a rechambering blade launcher. The unique weapon is one of the best secondary weapons in multiplayer because, without a magazine equipped, it does 150 damage per shot from any range.

However, it’s not worth using Explosive Blades because of their small blast radius, and Ricochet Blades suffer massive damage drop-offs of 150 to 75 per shot.

With or without a magazine attachment, the weapon struggles in Warzone. Luckily, the devs noticed the discrepancy and responded accordingly. In addition, this update makes a few other buffs and nerfs worth noting.

Here are the complete Black Ops 6 update patch notes.

Events  

TMNT Event

• Adjusted the end date to March 20th at 10 AM PT.

Weapons: Multiplayer & Zombies

D1.3 Sector

“Our initial design for the D1.3 Sector Ricochet Blades revolved around quickly launching many high-speed blades, meant to perform best blind firing into enclosed spaces. We have been following your feedback and agree that, in practice, the use cases for this ammo type are too low. The Ricochet Blades will now do 100 damage to enable one-hit kills, and to compensate we are lowering the fire rate and projectile speed. We think the popularity of this ammo type will see some new interest with these changes and look forward to seeing more of your cross-map killcams in MP.”
