⚙️ Operator Balancing
This patch focuses on quality‑of‑life improvements for several operators, making them more responsive and effective in the field.
🔫 Weapon Buffs
Two weapons received damage increases, directly benefiting their respective operators.
Both weapons were previously considered underwhelming in their damage output. These small bumps could make them more competitive choices in ranked play.
🐛 Bug Fixes
The patch addresses several gameplay and user experience issues. Key fixes include:
Gameplay
- Solid Snake’s OSP Pouch no longer highlights two gadgets as selected
- Prone movement speed restored to correct values
- Wamai’s Mag‑NET no longer catches devices after being destroyed
- Attackers no longer lose drone control during Preparation Phase when spectated
- Ram can no longer hide inside her BU‑GI Auto Breacher
- Gridlock’s Trax Stingers now correctly destroyed by Deimos’ T.R.I.P. Connector
- Flores’ RCE‑Ratero Charge now displays explosion VFX and SFX correctly with the Master Assassin skin
User Experience
- Spectating Solid Snake now properly displays Soliton Radar information
- Rebinding secondary inputs for Switch Ability Mode now works as expected
💬 BuyCarry’s Take: Small Tweaks, Big Impact
At BuyCarry, we’ve always appreciated Ubisoft’s commitment to fine‑tuning Rainbow Six Siege. This patch may look small on paper, but the changes address real pain points.
The Flores buff is particularly welcome. Waiting two seconds after detonating your drone often meant missing the window to push. One second is a game‑changer for aggressive Flores players.
Jäger’s cooldown reduction—while only one second—adds up over a full round, especially when dealing with flashbang or frag grenade spam. And Wamai’s faster deployment means less time standing vulnerable while placing utility.
The weapon buffs are modest, but Caveira and Sens mains will take any extra damage they can get. Every bullet matters in a game where one‑shot headshots dominate.
As always, these adjustments subtly shift the meta. Operators who were slightly out of favor may see renewed playtime.
If you’re looking to adapt to the new patch quickly—whether it’s mastering the new Flores timing or climbing ranked with buffed operators—BuyCarry offers coaching and carries to help you stay ahead of the curve.
