Change Log

Patch 2.6.0

Buff: increased the Aura-reveal ranges to 64/96/128 metres.

It should be noted that changing Tier III's range from unlimited to 128 metres is not a nerf:
With the rare exceptions of some corner-to-corner distances on the largest Maps, no two points are further apart than that distance and the 128 metres will suffice.

Trivia

On the Developer's old website, Empathy was featured with a different flavour text: "Just stay there. I'll come for you!"
Up to its buff in Patch 2.6.0, the unlimited range of Tier III was actually just a very large number in code, specifically 9,999,999 centimetres (nearly 100 kilometres or 62 miles).
This was changed to a much more reasonable 128 metres, which covers nearly all Maps just fine, as such large numbers tend to cause performance issues.

Name Trivia

Empathy is the ability to understand and share the feelings of others, making it an essential human trait.
