In the announcement about the armor penetration changes impacting Hulkling and Valkyrie, it was stated that Hercules was impacted as well and that he would receive a buff to restore his previous performance, like the other two Champions.
I understand that Valkyrie and Hulkling were just released as 7-stars in the Banquet event, so it was urgent for Kabam to fix them, while nobody really cares about a 6-star-locked Hercules in 2026. However, his buff was planned for March, and the month is now over. Do we have an updated timeline for that?
Also, since the March update (at the beginning of the month), Hercules has been bugged. We know that his Feats of Strength grant him armor penetration, and after the previously mentioned issue, he no longer increases the damage he deals after reaching the critical point (usually 4 or 5 Feats of Strength, depending on the opponent).
Since the March update, his Feats of Strength haven’t increased his damage at all. Kabam was made aware of the bug in this thread:
https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/412007/hercules-damage-after-updateMike even stated that the bug was fixed, but it clearly isn’t (I really don’t know why he would say that when anyone can test Hercules in any fight and see that this is not the case).
Are we at least going to get a fix for this bug? Or do we have to wait for the general buff?
