<Adjustments>
1. Some of Rifleman’s Talents have been adjusted. Original talents "Break the Surface" and "Honor Badge" have been added to the Rifleman's Core Talents. Previously, damage bonus provided by the Honor Badge was too unstable. These adjustments will provide Survivors of different levels with a more stable damage bonus, and slightly increases mobility and special bullet damage.

The Heavy Weapon Bonus from original talents "Sniper Expertise", "Let the Bullets Fly" and "Infectious Ammo" has been added to the Sniper's Core Talents.
