Riven Tides Patch 1.26.0 Expands Coastline, Reworks Weapons Economy, and Buffs Bettina
Patch 1.26.0 for Riven Tides adds a new coastline area and ARC Turbine enemy, introduces new loot and items, and launches a sweeping weapon-economy overhaul including repair-on-upgrade and revamped weapon durability. Durability changes reduce average spawned weapon durability (50→30), grant 25% repair on upgrades, and adjust durability loss by rarity, while knockouts cut durability loss by 50%. Bettina is buffed (higher base damage and ARC armor damage, lower fire rate, refined dispersion) and a new Tactical Mk.3 augment joins the roster; numerous bug fixes, balance tweaks, map updates (Blue Gate, Buried City, Spaceport, Dam Battlegrounds), and QoL/performance improvements accompany the patch. Known issues list remains for rare edge cases.
