Igniting enemies with Incendiary Chaingun grants 50 overhealth.

Developer comment: Mauga has been underperforming for a while now so we're putting some power into perhaps his most engaging ability, Overrun.

Developer comment: Cardiac Overdrive is Mauga's primary tanking ability that keeps him in the fight, but the previous duration was difficult to counter. It is now a more potent effect with a shorter duration to increase the importance of choosing both the right moment to use it as Mauga and when to try mitigating against it as an enemy.
