Class Skill Balance

Last week we made a major class balance update, but one skill was left out of the overall plan due to challenges of implementation. We intended for Shadow Arts to increase robot damage, which isn't something that any cores or skills have been able to do up until now. This is due to the complexity of the caculations for robot damage versus other gear categories. However, after a week of struggle, it appears to finally be working. This change should be an interesting benefit, especially focus Bounty Hunters. It also opens the possibilty of adding new cores that can debuff or buff robot damage in the future.

• Bounty Hunter
  • Shadow Arts: Removed increased block chance, increased sidearm damage, and increased auxiliary damage; added effect that increases robot damage. The robot's base damage will increase by twice the skill value %. So a robot that has a base 175 damage will increaes by 20%, granting a bonus 35 damage at max level.

Core Fixes

• Frost Revenants Retribution P/E: Can no longer be removed by buff-removing skills like Azrael's Torment.

Cyber Wolf Distribution

This week we were able to distribute another batch of Cyber Wolf items and styles! The collection is nearly complete, but there are a few items that are still being refined, specifically the travel forms. We certainly hope you enjoy the items you've received so far and find them worth the wait!

The following is a list of the distributed items plus the minimum Gifting scores for receiving each item.

• 200,000 Gifting Score and Up
  • Cyber Wolf Armor
  • Cyber Wolf Armor CC
  • Helm 741
  • Helm 742
• 225,000 Gifting Score and Up
  • Savage Cyber Wolf Armor

New Cyber Wolf Styles

If you're browsing the style shop, you'll notice that styles 745-762 are available for purchase! These are based on the Cyber Wolf armors but they looked so cool, we wanted to share them with everyone, while still retaining a few exclusives for the Gifting tiers.
