Patch 26.17 - ARAM Mayhem 26.17 - Fighter Augments, ADC Tuning, and Bugfixes
Stay up to date with the latest League of Legends ARAM: Mayhem changes, including champion balance updates, augment modifications, and gameplay adjustments for each patch.
Highlights
- Two more fighter Augments arrive: Ultra Hydra and Upgrade Death's Dance, giving fighters more ways to sustain themselves and swing a teamfight.
- High-frustration ADC Augments were tuned: Critical Missile lost its fourth missile, Tripleshot now prioritizes nearby enemies, and Double Tap moved from Gold to Prismatic.
- Six Mayhem bugs were fixed across Squishy Slappy Grab, Stuck In Here With Me, Echo Cast, Archmage, Combusting Interest, and High Roller, and the Augment pool was adjusted so champions see better-fit options.
General Changes
Fighter Augments
Riot added Ultra Hydra and Upgrade Death's Dance so fighters have more ways to stay alive in the middle of a teamfight and convert completed Hydra items or Death's Dance into bigger payoffs.
ADC Augment Tuning
Critical Missile can now fire at most three missiles, Tripleshot targeting prefers enemies near the main target, Double Tap is now Prismatic, and Upgrade Infinity Edge no longer grants critical strike chance. Upgrade Ravenous also cleaves minions and its Ravenous Hydra life steal rose from 18% to 20%.
Bugfixes
Fixes cover Squishy Slappy Grab refreshing immediately after Sion died, Stuck In Here With Me triggering after Mordekaiser's (R) ended, Echo Cast clones aiming the wrong way after reconnect, Archmage putting ammo spells on cooldown, teammate burns granting gold after Combusting Interest, and High Roller failing on certain champions.
