REPORT CLASSIFICATION: CRITICAL BUG

Stratagem beacons bounce unpredictably off surfaces instead of landing where thrown

FILED: Jun 12, 2026

VOICES CAST

▸ PROBLEM STATEMENT

Stratagem beacons frequently ricochet off walls, rocks, and other map surfaces and end up far from the intended target. Because stratagem placement is a core tactical mechanic, erratic beacon physics turn deliberate plays into coin-flips and routinely cause self-damage or wasted cooldowns.

▸ PROPOSED CHANGE

Make beacon physics predictable: dampen or remove the random bounce when a beacon contacts a surface so it settles at or near the point of impact. Players should be able to place a stratagem with intent and trust where it lands.

▸ AMENDMENTS

Suggest a sharper version of this issue. Proposals become candidates the community votes up or down — the highest net one is merged into the proposed change when voting closes. Buried suggestions drop off.
