Patch OB 0.6.3 brings an end to Frostfall and Hunt Pass Season One, revises the hammer's primed attack, and eradicates a few more bugs.
FROSTFALL AND BEYOND
There may still be snow on the ground in Ramsgate, but Frostfall has finally come to an end. Tomorrow marks both the end of the holiday and the conclusion of our first-ever Hunt Pass. It’s been amazing to see so many Slayers running around in their Silver Nikola gear, and we want to say thanks to everyone who participated in, completed, and shared their feedback on the Hunt Pass.
If you haven’t done so yet, you can join the conversation on either the official Dauntless forums or the /r/dauntless subreddit. We’ll be doing a lot of data deciphering in the next few days as we plan, adjust, and build the forthcoming Hunt Pass Season 2. We’ll share more in the weeks to come.

BALANCE CHANGES
- The hammer’s primed attack damage is now scaled by ammo quality. Having blue ammo grants a 25% increase to the damage bonus from primed attacks.
