Maintenance
Date: December 5, 2024
Developer Notes
The previously announced Exascale Armor set effect improvements will be carried out in this patch.
For 'Compute' (red), we identified problems with stacking and maintaining the buff effect. We want to mitigate this issue by relaxing the conditions.
'Cycle' (blue) will be changed to have an even reset chance on both buffs to improve the usability. Also, to minimize shortcomings from this set, we also increased the skill damage effect.
Lastly, 'Restore' (green), which we received the most feedback about, will be changed.
The existing cooldown decrease for skills in Transcendence slots was affected by cooldown acceleration, causing unintended disparities in balance due to differing characteristics i.e. casting speed.
We reworked the effect so that cooldown acceleration will not be effective. At the same time, usage will be limited to 5 skill casts every cycle. We also changed it to set the cooldown to 0.5s each time it procs and added a buff that increases action speed to make all classes more capable of using their skills as quickly as possible.
We are working on additional improvements regarding the armor. For the time being, a color change ticket will be sold in the Cash Shop.
We will also be giving them out through events.
Exascale color change tickets will only work if all circuit amplifiers have the same color. Please note that only the color will be changed, and not the imbued stat.
The Winter Update will start with a Hyper Punch Master Event after maintenance.
The last scheduled update is the balance patch on March 27th.
Regarding balance, we've received some feedback expressing regret about how things are handled.
However, we don't care considering the current update cycle, new mod skills and raid, it's difficult to bring a balance patch forward in the schedule.
Since we cannot implement it now, there will be a free job change event that was not originally planned.
When the balance patch is finally released, we will hold another job change event.
