New Additions and Improvements

Class Changes
 
Ranger
With this update, not only have we improved Ranger’s skill combos, but we’ve also enabled her to now take a more proactive approach to counterattacking while evading enemy attacks in combat. While still weak defensively, we made it so that Ranger can utilize the windows of Invincibility granted from her skills while waiting for an opening.

While we removed the ability to attack instantly on collision with Flow: Rushing Wind, we added the Invincibility effect while moving with the skill, thus enabling the Ranger to quickly approach the enemy, ignore their attacks, and deliver a counterattack of their own. Also, Spirit’s Haven was integrated into Flow: Rooting, changing it from a stationary skill to now grant Invincibility when performed and removed the collision detection during the skill. We hope to see Spirit’s Haven become a more important skill to help the Ranger secure more advantageous terrain.

Guardian Wind was changed so that it can be used as a normal skill instead of having to be comboed after a specific skill. The Down Attack debuff has been removed, but its overall damage dealt has increased. Though Guardian Wind does not grant any defensive effects, it is a skill that can inflict powerful ranged damage from a distance, so we hope this skill will be useful to keep enemies at bay. Finally, the Vine Knot skill has been improved to be more easily comboed with other skills. Currently the most popular combo involves using this skill with backward Waltz of Wind, but after this update, you will now be able to combo Vine Knot with other skills such as Nature's Tremble and Wind Blade, thus creating more diverse choices.

Kunoichi
We made changes to the Awakened Kunoichi's flow skills since they felt a bit underwhelming during PvP.
We moved the defensive effects of Sah Spree of Sonan to Flow: Indignation, and now you can combo with Flow skills consecutively to inflict damage while maintaining the defensive effects. Also, now that Flow: Wrath applies the Down Smash debuff, you can string combos by using Lethal Spin Spree, Flow: Wrath, and Flow: Indignation to apply Smash Attack while being protected with Super Armor. We've also made changes to the buffs and debuffs granted by certain skills so you don’t feel forced to use them just to maintain those effects. In addition to that, we've also increased the overall damage of Awakening skills in PvP, so you don’t feel limited to using only Lethal Spin Spree to deal greater damage in your combos.

Witch
Awakening

  • Fixed the issue of the Black Spirit version of the skill being activated while Gorr is summoned even when the skill was locked.
 
 
Guardian
To retain her trait of dealing powerful, single blows, we’ve adjusted the Awakened Guardian’s overall damage for PvP. Specifically, charging skills such as Dragon’s Maw and Flow: Howling Light were improved to deal damage appropriate to the amount of time required to cast said skills. Also, since you fight without a shield in Awakening, we’ve improved Dragon’s Calling to recover even more HP as you aggressively wield your jordun in battle.
Awakening
Flow: Suppress
  • Increased the duration of Super Armor during the skill.
  • Changed the Critical Hit Rate buff to now apply in PvP as well.
    • Critical Hit Rate +100% (in PvE) → Critical Hit Rate +100%

  • Changed the Critical Hit Rate buff to now apply in PvP as well.
    • Critical Hit Rate +100% (in PvE) → Critical Hit Rate +100%

Dragon's Calling
  • Changed so that the skill recovers twice the HP on hits with your jordun.

  • Changed so that while using the skill, the character follows the camera right before the opponent is impaled.

Dragon's Maw
  • Decreased the total number of times able to charge from 4 to 3.
  • Added the Down Attack debuff.
 
 
Hashashin
We sought to bolster the Awakened Hashashin’s capabilities in dealing with multiple opponents instead of one.
First, we changed Sin Splitter by adding a defensive effect but it now no longer applies a debuff in PvP,  thereby allowing for the usage of other Core skills.
Collapse was the most used skill after Constriction and Core: Sin Splitter, and so we added an Attack Speed buff to the skill, which now lets your Hashashin deal damage faster with combos that start with Collapse.
We’ve also heard from many Adventurers that they couldn’t fully utilize Dune Slash’s Knockdown debuff for the entirety of its duration due to Flow: Dune Strike’s Down Smash debuff interrupting the flow of the entire combo, so we decided to remove the Down Smash debuff from being applied by Flow: Dune Strike.
Lastly, for Silent Breach, we changed it so that defensive effects now only apply while moving with the skill, and made the skill activate faster, thus changing it into a skill useful to apply surprise debuffs upon unsuspecting foes.
Awakening

Monster

Valtarra's Clairvoyance & Memory Improvements

As one of the necessary ingredients to create Odore's Spirit Essence, Valtarra's Clairvoyance has been known for being much more difficult to obtain than the other ingredients.
Unlike the other ingredients that can be looted from defeated monsters, this ingredient involves an extra step with the Tanning Life Skill.
Not only did this require Adventurers to dabble in both PvE and Life Skill content, but also needed to have a bunch of Gathering Mastery and gear to improve their odds of obtaining the item.
 
Therefore, to address these cumbersome steps in obtaining Valtarra's Clairvoyance, and in the hopes of encouraging many more Adventurers to rise to the challenge, we decided to lower the difficulty of obtaining Valtarra's Clairvoyance and Memory to levels more similar to the other ingredients of Odore's Spirit Essence.
First off, we've now made it so that you have a low chance of looting Valtarra's Clairvoyance and Memory from defeated monsters. We've also lowered the HP of Ferrina, and, while also making their gathering loot drops unaffected by Life Skill Mastery, we've adjusted the loot drop chance to be close to the previous rate when having up to 2,000 Life Skill Mastery.
Second, regarding how long the [Weekly] Valtarra's Memory quest took to both defeat and tan 3,000 monsters as opposed to other weekly potion quests, we reduced the amount of monsters to 500.
 
Do note that any Valtarra's Clairvoyance and Memory obtainable from Hunting during events will still be affected by your Hunting Mastery.
