Rainbow Six Siege just made major changes to its balancing with Year 6 Season 2 North Star, but the new update on its test server fixes some bugs that the new season introduced, and we’ve got the patch notes below. In particular, it smashes two bugs that cause pretty significant gameplay effects for Doc and Warden.

Apparently, if Warden walks over the same hatch that a defender is reinforcing, this causes the reinforcing animation to be canceled. Obviously, this isn’t ideal behavior, so this hotfix rectifies that issue. Also, if an operator is being healed by Doc’s Stim Pistol while affected by Lesion’s GU, it removes the effect of the GU, and that’s also been fixed.
