Flow: Virga Shaft
  • Fixed the issue where Flow: Rising Slash was activated instead of the skill when pressing RMB after Stratus Shift to the left.
 
Wind Shear
  • Fixed the issue where the Damage Reduction was applied lower than intended on hits.
 

CONTENTS

Stat application method for the Arena of Solare has been revamped.
 
Now stats are applied at 100% instead of the previous 50%. 
This means that the stats from skills and exclusive gear will be more fully reflected, allowing your character's traits to stand out more, and giving you more freedom to tailor your equipment settings based on your playstyle.
 
Additionally, damage dealt to enemies will be amplified, reflecting the increased stats, allowing you to inflict more damage than before. To ensure the damage isn't excessively high with the new stat ratio, gear stat balancing has been adjusted to maintain an appropriate level of damage.
  • Changed stat application ratio and exclusive gear/crystals in the Arena of Solare as below.
    • Increased the application of Character's AP, Damage Reduction, Accuracy, and Evasion from 50% to 100%.
      • As a result, AP, Damage Reduction, Accuracy, and Evasion based on character's skill and equipment is more significantly reflected.
    • Changed the enhancement level of all defense gear from TET (IV) to PEN (V).
    • Changed the Caphras Enhancement level of all defense gear to Lv. 7 based on PEN (V).
    • Changed the HAN Combined Magic Crystal - Hoom/Macalod to Ultimate Combined Magic Crystal - Hoom/Macalod.
