General

The repair threshold for all phalanx turrets was changed from 50% to 100%. This means if the turret is destroyed, it needs to be brought to full health to be active again.
The overhead map and mini-map have been updated.

Dahaka
Dahaka now has the additional walls that Zurvan received, but with a different yet similar flow.
Note: there are no shields protecting the superstructure.

There is now a single capture point within the interior of the Amp Station superstructure.
The Spawn Control Unit is now located in the left courtyard building, where one of the generators used to be.
This building is protected by shields that only allow ally infantry to pass.
These shields are powered by a generator in the right courtyard at it’s normal location.

Zurvan

Some tweaks were made to the Zurvan facility. The largest change is the main spawn room was moved to the opposite side of the superstructure.
Attackers tickets will be reduced by 50% and Defenders tickets will remain the way they are now. This will make capping faster for an attacker.
Currently, the two shield generators need to both be brought down to gain access to the interior by removing two shields in the rear of the superstructure. This has changed slightly. There is now a single shield operated by both generators. The generators must both be repaired to an active state (50% health) to restore the shield.
The back door shield generator (the one inside the CC room) has had its health increased by 50%.
