[h2]System[/h2]
[h3]Alpha & Omega[/h3]
Two new objectives are infiltrating Lumia Island. Created as a result of Aglaia's Geppetto Project, Alpha & Omega are androids artificially brought to life through the infusion of Vital Force (VF). They still tend to be a bit… unstable and incomplete at the moment. The androids drop Mithril & Force Core, making them important objectives to fight over.

• Alpha
  • 
    Spawns 340s after Game Start (Day 2 Morning)
    
  • 
    Randomly spawns in either Uptown or Alley (Location is announced 1 minute before spawn)
    
  • 
    Skill: Ark Blade
    
    • 
      Swings blades in a semicircle dealing damage and knocking back enemies. Being knocked into walls stuns enemies.
  • 
    Drops Mithril, Recon Drone, and 1 Rare or Uncommon material (Excluding Moonstone).

• Omega
  • 
    Spawns 640s after Game Start (Day 3 Morning)
    
  • 
    Spawns in either Uptown or Alley, depending on where Alpha did not spawn.
    
  • 
    Skill: Ark Blade
    
  • 
    Skill: System Overload (Passive)
    
    • 
      Takes more damage when hit with a skill. (Cooldown 8s)
      
      • 
        Mechanism to decrease difference in objective-farming ability between characters
  • 
    Skill: VF Pulse
    
    • 
      After channeling, releases a surge of VF and knocks enemies into the air, dealing damage.
      
    • 
      Enemies hit lose 30% Attack Power for 5s
  • 
    Drops Force Core, EMP Drone, and 1 Rare or Uncommon material (Excluding Moonstone).

[h3]Acceleration Influx Perimeter[/h3]
All borders between areas now have a Acceleration Influx Perimeter. Acceleration Influx Perimeters now work as a way to evade early-game chasers and reduces travel time between areas without hyperloops.

• 
  Passing through an Acceleration Influx Perimeter will cause it to disappear and increase the movement speed of the subject by 30% for 2s.
  
• 
  The movement speed increase buff will disappear with any action besides moving.
  
• 
  Acceleration Influx Perimeters will reappear after 7s.

[h3]Major Objective Placements & Extended Map Indicators[/h3]
Spawn timers for major objectives have been changed.
The changes can be seen as the following:

• 
  Day 1 length increased (160s → 180s)
  
  • 
    Initial Bat spawns have been pushed back by 20s.
• 
  2 Trees of Life will spawn on Day 1 Night. (Hotel → Hotel, Cemetery)
  
• 
  Tree of Life will no longer spawn on Day 2 Morning.
  
• 
  2 Trees of Life will spawn on Day 2 Night. (Cemetery → Forest, Hospital) (A new Tree of Life has been added to Hospital)
  
• 
  Alpha & Omega have been added. (Alpha - Day 2 Morning, Omega - Day 3 Morning. See above for more info)
  
• 
  There are more Meteorites and they will spawn more frequently.
  
  • 
    A total of 4 will spawn. One will spawn every day/night cycle change starting from Day 1 Night.
    
  • 
    The 3rd & 4th Meteorites spawn 20/40s later than the cycle change due to complications in the code. This will fixed in a future patch.
• 
  Wickeline spawn: (Day 3 Morning → Day 3 Night)
  
• 
  Wickeline no longer drops Force Core.
  
• 
  Wickeline, Alpha, Omega, Tree of Life, Meteorites will be displayed on the Map (M).
  
• 
  If Wickeline or Alpha & Omega are alive, they will be displayed on the map.
  
• 
  Tree of Life and Meteorites will show up on the map if they are collectable.
  
• 
  These features will be implemented in the Match Status / Scoreboard (Tab) map in the future.

[h3]Vision Improvements[/h3]
Vision and Fog of War have been improved more accurately all over the map.

• 
  Vision will now be much clearer than before. Objects such as high walls and trees will now block vision accurately.
  
• 
  The decrease of load on vision should also help improve optimization.
  
• 
  With the increased ability to actively block vision, we're hoping to see more play-making by using vision creatively.

Example 1: Vision behind the tree is now concealed. Example 2: No longer granted vision of Pond Bear Plateau when beneath it.
[h3]HP Bar Color for Team Modes[/h3]
Check if the enemy is alone at a glance.
This will be on by default but can be turned off in the settings. Turning the feature off will only differentiate HP bars between your allies and enemies, like before.

[h3]Hyperloop After-Use Effects[/h3]
Hyperloops are inherently dangerous, but getting absolutely instantly exploded isn't a great feeling. This should make them safer but shouldn't make them overly advantageous.

• 
  After Hyperlooping, the hyperlooper is untargetable and negates all damage for 1s.
  
• 
  After Hyperlooping, the hyperlooper is unable to use any normal attacks, skills, or items and is slowed by 30% for 1.5s.

[h3]Gameplay Main Improvements[/h3]

• 
  Critical Strike Damage: 175% → 165%
  
• 
  Vision Range at night: 60% → 70%
  
• 
  Item Skills have been changed to be Unique Passives.
  
  • 
    Equipping multiple items with the same Unique Passive will result in only one of the effects being active.
    
    • 
      If the effect is the same, the option with the superior stats will have higher priority.
      
      • 
        Equipping an item with Attack Range +1.25 while wielding another item with Attack Range +1 will result in only the Attack Range +1.25 stat being applied.
• 
  Rest Recovery & Recovery Intervals
  
  • 
    Recovery intervals while resting is now shorter and the healing efficiency is increased.
    
  • 
    Recovery Interval: 1s → 0.4s
    
  • 
    HP Recovery per tick : 20 + Level + Max HP 2% → 10 + Level
  • 0.5 + Max HP 1%
    
  • 
    SP Recovery per tick : 15 + Level
  • 0.5 + Max SP 2% → 8 + Level
  • 0.3 + Max SP 1%
• 
  QoL Improvements
  
  • 
    Displays the item currently being crafted in Fast Crafting to reduce accidental crafting.
    
  • 
    Improved visibility items in inventory.
    
    • 
      Unusable items such as ingredients, unequippable weapons, etc will not display an item slot number.
      
    • 
      Slots will darken when the item is unable to be used.
