II. ADJUSTMENTS
1. Hero Changes
Following our changes to Dual Blades, your basic skills took you into stealth after 1.2 seconds. This plus changes to the skill bar made it difficult for Dual Blades players to use their well-honed combos properly. Among these, the close-range [Skylark] and [Butterfly] skills almost felt weaker than before as they became more difficult to combo together. Whereas the [Bo-Shurikens] and [Great Thunderbolt] skills became easier to combo properly as they tend to be used at greater range. So we're making the following changes to hopefully remedy these new issues.
￮ You no longer enter stealth after the [Skylark] and [Butterfly] skills end.
￮ You still enter stealth for 1.2 seconds after the [Bo-Shurikens] and [Great Thunderbolt] skills end.
2. Unit Changes
The Chevaliers with their crossbow retinues are too strong in the current meta. They're able to use [Lance Thrust] at long range to have their retinue deal high damage, all the while the Chevaliers themselves stay well clear of the battle. This goes against our idea with this unit, which was to have them work together with their retinue. Plus, as crossbows are able to interrupt cavalry charges, there's no real counter to this style. So, we're making the following change:
￮ The Chevaliers must now be closer to enemy units in order to use their [Lance Thrust].
III. BUG FIXES
￮ Fixed an issue where the [Nodachi]'s health steal wouldn't work in some situations. The Nodachi's health steal is capped at 100%.
￮ Fixed an issue where the character creation would sometimes fail.
￮ Fixed an issue where the crowd-control effect removal skills [Rolling Escape], [Light-Footed] and [Dune Blast] would also remove bleeds and poison.
