Confirmed Version 1.0.0b change
The official Version 1.0.0b hotfix says the frequency of Falcon’s sound effects was reduced. Falcon is named with Good Boy in the patch and is associated with Ranger in the project catalog. This is a specific audio change. It does not announce a damage, cooldown, range, target-selection, or Critical change.
Do not infer a mechanical buff or nerf from an audio-frequency line. Patch notes should be read at the level of detail they actually provide. The live ability description is the correct source for effect text. This page preserves the hotfix without expanding it into unsupported strategy advice.
What remains unverified
The Version 1.0 release says Ranger fights with animal companions, but it does not name Falcon or provide a current ability tree. The 1.0.0b note does not describe Falcon’s tags, rank requirements, branches, or numerical effect. No such detail is invented here. A current tooltip or first-party note is required before the record can grow.
When you verify Falcon in-game, retain its exact text, tag, version, and observed behavior. Keep a later mechanical update separate from the audio correction. That distinction matters when comparing old builds or replaying a video from another patch. It is the basis of a maintainable ability database.
Build interpretation boundary
Ranger’s official introduction includes Critical, Luck, and ally-healing support. Those broad character facts do not prove how Falcon interacts with them. Do not treat Falcon as a required Crit tool, a healing tool, or a guaranteed damage source without current evidence. A real build recommendation needs the specific ability text and a repeatable run context.
This page is indexed for its official, versioned hotfix fact. It stays concise because the evidence is concise. Readers can see exactly what changed and what has not been verified, rather than being given a fictional complete guide.
