Rainbow Six Siege: Para Bellum patch notes
R6FIX
- We will now be using R6FIX to manage bug reports for both Live and Test Servers.If you encounter a bug, please navigate to https://r6fix.ubi.com/ and submit your findings today.
GLAZ OTS-03 RATE OF FIRE
- The rate of fire for Glaz’s rifle was increased from 220 RPM to 235.
- He was slightly buffed to account for other changes that are coming in Operation Para Bellum.

- Claymores can be placed closer to walls and objects in the environment.
- Claymores are now less picky about the slope of the ground it is being placed on.
- Pickup is slightly easier to do from different heights.

DROPSHOT
- We will be making some changes to the way dropshotting works. Starting with Para Bellum, it will not be possible to go prone from a standing position without been taken out of ADS.
GRENADE THROWBACK
- We have removed the ability to throw grenades back at enemies. This feature did not perform as we had intended, and was prone to collateral damage as a result.
