Notes

• The update notes erroneously refer to the Dartling Gun as the "Dartling Gunner" and the COBRA as the "Cobra Monkey" (its internal name).
• The update notes claim that Ice Shards no longer receives pierce buffs from Monkey Fort and MIB Call To Arms specifically, but it also cannot receive pierce buffs from powers.
• The update notes erroneously list Apache Dartship's machine gun cooldown as changing from 0.16s to 0.32s instead of 0.016s to 0.032s.
