Here are the notes for Hotfix 1.2.11

• Fixed a crash which could happen if a player joined a mission while a projectile was traveling in the air.
• Fixed an issue where the Veteran “Onslaught” talent did not affect melee attacks.

• Achlys Mk VII Twin-Linked Heavy Stubber: decreased time to fire first shot from 0.22s to 0s, improved deploy speed, reload speed, movement speed while firing, tighter spread while braced, even tighter spread while braced + crouched.
• Fixed a bug where Hand-cannon weapon blessing effects were applied globally.
• Fixed an issue with the physics of the Death Korps of Krieg Upperbody.
• Reduced the Ogryn Lorenz Mk V Kickback minimum pellet count from 16 to 12
  Dev note:
  “Minimum pellet count” is a way to make sure that an enemy hit by a few pellets of a shotgun attack will still react by counting it as having been hit by more pellets than it actually was. The overall maximum damage and shot spread of the Kickback are not affected.
