WTF is about all i can say. Didn't document the change and it was a fucking brutal nerf.  Terror is dirt now.

Zeal will still work like normal in EIR by the way.  I copied all the abilities into my own versions for instances like this when we may want to keep the old versions...

What exactly was the nerf to zeal?

[DBSights]

Attack speed bonus was reduced significantly.

Reload speed from 75% reduction to 25%.

And FL-, you rock man. this new zeal is pathetic...

It's only for that last single man.

I think it's a smart change.

The machine-gun firing shrek was a little ridiculous.  It was often a smart strategy to lose a bunch of your squad to get that insanely quick firing grenadier with a shrek.  I remember I took out 2 shermans with a gren team once.

This is a great change IMO.  It stops people from wanting to kill their own troops, and removes a situation that is kinda stupid.

You mean like that video where a single Zealed grenadier took out an entire base (HQ, triage, barracks, WS, SD, MP, FD, 2 MG nests) in two minutes flat?
