Update 0.9.8: Major Balance and Parity Updates

IPS-N EVERY
The Every has undergone the fewest changes of the updates frames, with the majority of the update revolving around buffing Mech Care Kit and reworking Carbon Spear Mod.

• Mech Care Kit
  
  • Now grants both effects:  Clears all burn, grants Overshield, and grants resistance to Burn while you have this overshield.
  • Gained the Shield Tag
• Carbon Spear Mod
  • Now grants +1 Threat and Thrown 5, but is affected by Engagement penalties.

SSC ADMIRAL
The Admiral was a long and somewhat bloated mess that granted too many effects at once.  Now, it has fewer options to choose from, but also allows you to more easily take advantage of them.  The new Nanite Chrysalis now really allows the Admiral to be the Support/Striker it was meant to be.

• Nanite Chrysalis Update
  • Movement, Damage, and Defense profiles consolidated into new Float and Sting effects
    • Float:  Pushes allies out of danger and grants explosive overshield.
    • Sting:  Grants movement while attacking, bonus damage, and flight.
  • Overdrive Die now Ticks up whenever you hit with an Energy weapon, but maxes out at 3 ticks per round

• New LL1 Weapon: Plasma Disc
  • Main Melee with AP, Thrown 5, and Reliable 1

SSC HERCULES
The Hercules mainly needed some nerfs to its systems, since they granted too much value too freely.

• Guarded Stance gains Heat 2 (Self)
• SSCS: Counter Attack now only allows you to Ram or Grapple the triggering character
• SSCS: Blitz Attack wording updates

HORUS DEVA
Big Explosions.  That is all.

• New Core Power
  • Turns all ranged weapons into Blast 1 Weapons or Increases their existing AOE at the cost of hea
• Micro-Sun Wheel
  • Now costs less heat to fire in both profiles to accommodate for new core power

HORUS SPHINX
The Sphinx has undergone some pretty major reworks, primarily to its traits and core passive.  It lost its Integrated Weapon, but gained a new and easier way to gain Overshield just by attacking.  Now, the Sphinx's license gear encourages it to stay close to allies.

• Traits and Core Passive
  • Gains Soft Cover while it has any overshield
  • Gains Overshield 4 whenever it hits a character within Range 3 with an Attack
• Gained a Heavy Mount
• Hardlight Projector
  
  • Charged as a Quick Tech
  • Grants a reaction to reduce the damage to an adjacent ally by 1d6
• Lightspeed Dash
  
  • Now allows you to Boost when an allied character is attacked by a marked enemy.
• New LL3 Weapon: Hardlight Khopesh
  
  • A weapon that can be unloaded to grant Overshield and Knockback

HA CYRUS
I don't quite remember when the Cyrus's core passive got updated so I'm just going to assume I did it now (I'm very good at this lol).
The Cyrus's old core passive granted too many benefits, and it was just far too bulky compared to other dedicated hackers and defenders.  It's new stats better reflect its versatility as both a hacker and tech defender while keeping the majority of its defining features.

• SOBEK-Class NHP Rework
  • Now Swap between forms as a Full Tech
  • Restrained mode keeps its aura of Difficulty for tech attacks against it and allied characters
  • Unleashed mode loses the tech attack reroll, but retains its +1 to tech attack and the "crit" effect.

HA YIFANG
The Yifang was in a weird spot, as it always had options outside of using its grenades to attack. This granted it too much power for its intended game plan.  As such, it lost its Heavy mount, but retained its versatility and power with its free action Grenade toss and new license gear.

• Protean Grenade Launcher
  • Now a Heavy Launcher with Range 10
• Grenadier Trait
  • Now no longer forces you to target different characters with the thrown grenades.
• LL1 Weapon: Belt Loaded Grenade Launcher
  • A Non-Loading version of the GMS RPG, with some Burn to pack a little extra punch.
• LL3 Weapon: Incendiary Mortar Rack
  • New Limited 3 Aux Weapons that deal very decent damage in a blast.
