NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Update – August 19th , 2022

Dear players,
The servers of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT will be suspended for maintenance from 08/18/2022 23:00 (UTC) to 08/19/2022 03:00 (UTC). We suggest that you log out in advance and enter the game again after the maintenance.
The details for this update are as follows:

Brand-new content!

Ⅰ.New Map: Holoroth
5 Regions: Plumed Castle, Mehtaab, City of Tang, Empyreal Village, and Yushan Ruins.
(Yushan Ruins is unavailable now: In northwestern Holoroth sits the inaccessible Snowy Peaks that have been ice-bound for years. But something abnormal is plotting inside Snowy Peaks these years, evident in the abrupt cracks on the ice. Perhaps the ice will melt soon.)

1. Brand New Mechanisms
Thorny Roller: Maintains cyclic motion, knocks players airborne once touched and deals a huge amount of damage.
Trap Clip: Interact with it to set a trap. Deals a small amount of damage to enemies stepping on it and bans Grappling Hook and Tracking for a certain time.
Spikes: Knocks players airborne once entering the trap and deals damage. There is a cooldown.
Cactus: Activated by player attacks, deals ranged damage to nearby players and knocks players hit to a far distance.
Firefly Cage: Interact with it to absorb Rage. It can be interacted with multiple players simultaneously and has an upper limit for a single absorption. Upon being drained, it will enter a CD.
Frost Moth: Activated by player attacks, releases ice mist in a wide range and freezes enemies within.
Sand Konjac: Activated by player attacks, releases dust in a wide range and blind enemies within.
Falcon Statues: Keep updating four statues in the Salvation Podium until they face their respective correct direction, in which case mysterious treasures will appear.
Campfire: Interact with it to disperse the Chill brought by the Snowstorm.
Rising Wind: Strengthens the jumping ability of players within range.
Ghostly Hand: Silences the objectives attacked by it for a while.

2. Weather System
In the game, Snowstorm, Sandstorm, and Ghostly Mist will be triggered in random areas at a random time. More advanced Troves will appear in areas affected by weather events.
Snowstorm: Occurs only in the cloudy environment. In a Snowstorm, players affected will gain Chill, forcing players into Heat Loss and reducing Rage constantly when the gauge is full. You can disperse the Chill by getting close to the Campfires marked on the map. New Troves will appear in Snowstorm areas and disappear after the weather changes.
Sandstorm: Occurs only in the cloudy or dusk environment. During a Sandstorm, a large amount of Rising Wind will appear in the area. New Troves will appear in Sandstorm areas and disappear after the weather changes.
Ghostly Mist: Occurs only in the cloudy or dusk environment. During a Ghostly Mist, a large number of Ghostly Hands will appear in the area. New Troves will appear in Ghostly Mist areas and disappear after the weather changes.

3. Regional Gameplays
1) Sliding on the Ice: When Sliding on the ice in Snowy Peaks, players' speed and max sliding distance will be greatly boosted. Enjoy your wild journey in Yushan!
2) Ecosystem: Embracing complex terrain, Holoroth has abundant species. Sand Pears that have two efficacy is an easy-to-find specialty here. You can also pick the Snow Lotus, an antidote to numerous poisons. But icecones may fall from nowhere, so be cautious. The snow caps on pine trees fall from occasionally, and squirrels keep hoarding food in the tree. In the desert, which seems to be desolate and uninhabited, there roam scorpions and lizards.

4. Map Selection
In the Herald's Trial, Quick Match, and Bot Mode, players can choose a specific map or any map to match;
//Players selecting the "Any Map" can be matched with players choosing a specific map, making the matching more effective.

5. New BGM
1) New Combat BGMs
All 5 main regions in Holoroth will have characteristic and exclusive combat BGMs. The new combat BGMs are still designed on the main idea of "Unfettered" as the old ones did. With the improvisation of locally featured instruments, we hope players can obtain an immersive gaming experience on the new map of Holoroth.
2) New Final BGMs
All 5 main regions in Holoroth have new BGMs exclusive to the Finals. Moreover, the 5 main regions in the Morus Isle also have their Final BMG renewed. The Final BGMs are played during the 6th and 7th corruption spread to generate passion in players fighting in the Finals.
3) New Combat BGMs Triggering Mechanism
Optimized BGM mechanism for frequent switching between combat and normal states. This smarter BGM triggering mechanism will enhance your combat experience.

II. New Crossover Hero: Ziping Yin
Gifted and selfless, she gives her all in healing and treating anyone in need.
Such is her medical skill that you'd be forgiven for thinking just her presence alone can heal the sick, or return the fallen from their eternal slumber.
Ziping's gentleness and lively nature belied her strength: for here she stood, unflinching and unwavering though her family and the entire nation were under threat.
"Saving a single life is one thing. To save everyone, however... Yet no matter how tough, I'll do what I can!"


(The third F skill and V ultimate variants are not yet available in this version. Once available, complete hero's Cultivation Quests to unlock. Unlocked automatically if you've already completed the required Cultivation Quests.)

III. New Season: Dawn
The Season 4 [Ordeal] will come to an end on 08/19/2022 00:00 (UTC). Meanwhile, the rank of this season will be settled and the new season [Dawn] will be open. Players will be able to claim the rewards after the update of the new season.

Hero Adjustments
Ⅰ. Temulch
1. Temulch's [Zephyr Wisp] and all his Talents will get into blue Focus while summoning Zephyr Wisp. The stagger time of blowing the enemies is now always 3s and not determined by the number of remaining wisps.
2. Temulch's [Zephyr Prison] and all his Talents can now block the enemy's skill lock, including [Binding Prayer] and [Backstab].
3. Decreased startup frames of Temulch releasing Ultimate in the air and on beams to be consistent with the startup frames when on the ground.

II. Valda Cui
1. Adjusted Valda Cui's [Nether Nightmare: Bind] startup frames from 3.2s to 1.6s. Adjusted the max duration of the Sea Dragon from 20s to 12s, during which Valda Cui can hurl unlimited water spears. All water spear attacks during this Ultimate are ranged strikes.
2. Valda Cui's [Nether Nightmare: Bind] now binds the enemies with [Dragon's Coil] for 1.8s, and the binding is unbreakable. The enemies will be bound at a 1.5m height rather than 3.5m, allowing them to be hit by melee attacks. Enemies are immune to [Dragon's Coil] for 3s after unbinding.
3. Adjusted horizontal strike Damage Multiplier of Valda Cui's [Nether Nightmare: Bind] water spear from 0.72 to 0.25, vertical strike Damage Multiplier from 4.65 to 2, with its startup and recovery frames shortened, keeping the same feel as the horizontal strike.
//Dev Note: The special mechanism of Valda's ultimate makes it difficult to cooperate with other heroes except Tianhai and Viper Ning. Thus, we lower the height of Dragon's Coil in [Nether Nightmare: Bind], so the bound enemies can be attacked by weapons on the ground. Meanwhile, use of water spears is also optimized, which can hit the enemies simpler. Hope this can bring more lineup alternatives with Valda Cui.

Optimized enemy animation of taking damage when [Stunned].

Weapon Adjustments

Optimized charging animation for Dual Blades when moving.

III. Musket
1. Increased speed of Musket shots for different states, including equipping Sunwing Shot.
2. Musket's Damage Multiplier has been reduced from 2.4 to 2.15.

Ⅳ. Pistol
1. Increased speed of Pistol shots for different charging states.
2. Increased hit range of Pistol shots.
3. Adjustments to Damage Multipliers:
Pistol's horizontal strike Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 0.4 to 0.32;
Pistol's charged strike Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 0.84 to 0.68.

V. Cannon
1. Canceled explosion range damage decay. The adjustments include:
Central explosion Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 3 to 2.15;
Middle Circle explosion Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 2.25 to 2.15;
Outer Circle explosion Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 1.5 to 2.15.

//Dev Note: The experience of using ranged weapons varies greatly between players. We expect to improve it for all players by increasing the overall hit rate while limiting weapons performance by reducing the damage.

I. Move Souljades
Optimized special effect of [Focus Slide].

The damage and healing effects, etc., inflicted by the adjusted circle still come from Kurumi.
The extra effects of Kurumi's healing circle when affected by different elements are as follows:
- Fire circle: Enemies in the circle will lose health continuously, and their healing will be reduced by 50%. After leaving the circle, the debuff will last for 5 seconds (the damage will be greatly reduced compared to when they were in the fire circle).
- Poison circle: Enemies in the circle will lose health continuously. After enemies leave the circle, the debuff will last for 5 seconds (the damage and the duration will be greatly reduced compared to when they were in the poison circle).
- Wind circle: Enemies in the circle will restore their Energy slower. After leaving the circle, the debuff will last for 4 seconds.
- Water circle: Allies that enter the circle for the first time will gain an extra healing effect.
- Ice circle: The circle will regularly make ice storms, which can freeze enemies.
//Dev Note: After being summoned out, Kurumi's healing circle could be changed occasionally in unexpected situations, which sometimes resulted in the loss of urgently needed healing effect. Therefore, we made the basic healing effect to teammates of the circle unchanged even though it's affected by different elements, and added extra effects to create uniqueness according to different elements.

Dear players,
The servers of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT will be suspended for maintenance from 06/22/20 23:00 (UTC) to 06/23/2022 03:00 (UTC). We suggest that you log out in advance and enter the game again after the maintenance.

The new weapon Dual Blades will be available. Come and try it out for yourself!

II. Omni's Nightmare is back once again.
1. Choose your Faction
You can choose your preferred Faction before each match, influencing who is assigned to each side.
2. In-game Content
1) Spirit Echoes: Heroes can now gain up to two passive buffs in the form of Spirit Echoes. These include 'Golden Rattan', 'Light's Rage', 'Lethal Armor', 'Copper Ward', 'Explosive Shot' and 'Beckon'. Evil-Ents may choose two from 'Hook Axe', 'Enrage', 'Split Axe', 'Eagle Vision', 'Miasma Rattan' and 'Eternal' to replace their default skills, ultimates or moves. (Check the Narakapedia for details.)
2) Check Faction info for the current match and allocate your Spirit Echoes during preparation.
3) Rattan is found around the map, but only grows near Soul Lanterns. Evil-Ents can damage Soul Lanterns to remove the Rattan, yet heroes can repair the Soul Lanterns in turn, allowing Rattan to respawn once more.

4) Heroes now have gold Focus during the last second they submit Rattan.
5) Soul Lanterns can be repaired by multiple players at once, speeding up their repairs.
6) Ballista spawn at random spots along the tracks. Heroes must spend 10,000 Dark Tide Coins to unlock them before they can be used, however.

8) The 'Nearby chat' voice channel has now been replaced with 'Faction chat'. Team chat has been added for those players who join the match as a party. Toggle Open Mic or switch voice channels in Settings - Audio.

IV. New Event [Sunwing Solstice]
The world bristles with Yang energies as the Summer Solstice arrives.
It's unknown when it first appeared, but out on Morus Isle, there stands a Solstice Altar.
A most peculiar sensation, as if one's inner Yang energies were reaching out toward the altar, overcame all heroes who approached its location.
And once the Solstice Altar was activated, Plumes were found scattered across Morus Isle.
The people came to realize that, once taken to Sunwing's Rest, these Plumes were absorbed into the air around them. Not only that, however. Sunwing's Rest itself began to change slowly as it absorbed them...

5. Event rewards are granted once players reach a set score total. The point maximum is 3,000, granting all event rewards once reached.
6. Every [Plume] submitted increases the Total Points figure by 1, and once it reaches its maximum, all players will be rewarded 1 [Fortune Treasure].
*Note: Remember to claim your rewards before the event ends, or you'll miss out.

V. Map Updates
The winds of change continue to blow, and dark undercurrents sweep Sunwing's Rest.

Hero Adjustments
//Dev Note: In the month-and-a-bit since the Ordeal season began, we've been hard at work analyzing NARAKA's ever-growing game data. We've also received loads of great player feedback—thanks again for your continued support!
Our analysis showed us that the hero skills and ultimates are dealing more damage in battle than we'd anticipated, meaning combat would often be over in a flash. We don't want teams wiped out just because a player unleashed their skill/ultimate at an inopportune time. Yet simultaneously, we don't want players' hard work and advantages to be for nothing just because we've changed up a strategy.
With this in mind, we've adjusted skill and ultimate damage for most heroes. We hope this will serve to improve the strategic environment in-game, and also that it'll give rise to new and exciting lineups and battle strategies too.

Ⅰ. Yoto Hime
1. Adjusted her ultimate [Ominous Blade] and all its variations. The basic Damage Multiplier of its slashes was reduced from 4.5 to 2.6 for the 1st slash, 3.2 for the 2nd slash, and 3.8 for the 3rd slash.
2. Adjusted extra slashes of her ultimate [Ominous Blade: Combo]. The Damage Multiplier was reduced from 2.25 to 1.6.
//Dev Note: After recent adjustments to the mechanism of Yoto Hime's ultimate, the hit rate of its slashes has been improved. To balance the Hero, we adjusted the Damage Multiplier slightly.

Ⅱ. Matari
1. Increased the single moving distance of her Skill [Silent Flutter: Rapid Flash] from 6m to 9m.
2. Added a new mechanism to her ultimate [Unseen Wings] and all its Talents. Now when Matari is in stealth, [Silent Flutter]'s CD will be reduced and the moving distance will be increased and be with the [Backstab] status.
[Backstab]: An enemy within the range of [Silent Flutter] in front of Matari will be locked. When the enemy is locked, Matari can use [Silent Flutter] to teleport to the target's back and launch a special attack.
3. Reduced max rage needed to cast her ultimate [Unseen Wings] and all its variations by 20%.
//Dev Note: Before these adjustments, Matari's ultimate [Unseen Wings] could increase her fighting capacity in open battles only to a limited extent without effective deterrence. Therefore, we added the [Backstab] mechanism to improve her offensive capability and give her a competitive edge after casting the ultimate.

III. Takeda Nobutada
1. [Demonic Strike]’s base Damage Multiplier during [Demonic Aid] has been reduced from 0.5*2 to 0.4*2, and [Airborne Strike] base Damage Multiplier reduced from 1*2 + 1.5 to 0.5*2 + 1.5.

2) [Demonic Aid: Teleport] base Damage Multiplier has been reduced from 1.5 + 0.5*6 + 3 to 1 + 0.3*6 + 2.2.
3) [Demonic Aid: Teleport] attacks now restore the attacker's health by 30% of the damage dealt.

IV. Tianhai
1. Tianhai's ultimate [Titan's Call] and all its variations' base Damage Multiplier have been changed.
1) Skills' base Damage Multiplier (when Tianhai hasn't grabbed an enemy) has been reduced from 4.28 to 3.75.
2) Skills' base Damage Multiplier (when Tianhai's got a single enemy in his grasp) has been reduced from 4.28 to 3.75.
3) Skills' base Damage Multiplier (when Tianhai's got two enemies in his grasp) has been reduced from 12.5 to 10.
2. Tianhai's ultimate [Titan's Call] and all its variations’ base Health and Armor Conversion Multiplier have been changed.
1) In Solos, Tianhai's base Health while in Vajra form has been increased from 1,900 to 2,300 and his Armor Conversion Multiplier from 0.6 to 0.8.
2) In Duos, Tianhai's Armor Conversion Multiplier while in Vajra form has been increased from 0.8 to 0.9.

V. Yueshan
Yueshan's ultimate [Troop Decimation] and all its variations' base Damage Multiplier have been changed.

II. Map Updates
There's something off in the Sunwing's Rest recently. Check it out now!

Hero Adjustments
I. Justina Gu
1. Justina Gu no longer gains rage when ice fog is active after casting ultimate [Arctic Wraith·Frostwind].
//Dev Note: Justina Gu casts [Arctic Wraith·Frostwind] more frequently than expected during a long-lasting battle, so we have limited her rage gains within some time after casting the ultimate.
2. Adjusted the initial skill [Ice Core]. It no longer negates physical strikes during the startup frames (0-1s), but Justina Gu gains a 70% damage reduction. After the startup frames, Justina Gu's physical immunity will resume. Other features of [Ice Core], such as active interruption, focus, restoration, etc., have not been adjusted.
//Dev Note: [Ice Core] used to have restoration capability and 5-sec physical immunity—way too overwhelming than the other two skills. The long duration of immunity can leave the opponent in an awkward predicament. Therefore, we have shortened the duration and granted damage reduction to Justina Gu to improve the combat experience for both parties.

II. Yueshan
1. Slightly adjusted Yueshan's startup frames (increased from 0.7s to 1.1s) when casting the ultimate.
//Dev Note: Even with extremely low remaining HP after taking heavy damage, Yueshan may still cast the ultimate, perform the transformation, and fully restore HP, which can be quite frustrating for the opponent. Also, Yueshan's transformation startup frames are way shorter than Tianhai's. As a result, we have increased Yueshan's transformation startup frames by 0.4s.

III. Wuchen
1. Adjusted the Focus level during the charging stage from golden to blue for [Spirit Blades] and [Spirit Blades·Shield].
//Dev Note: The maximum charging time of Wuchen's skills is relatively long. With golden focus, Wuchen can gain a huge advantage. Therefore, we adjusted the focus level to clarify these skills' roles.
2. Reduced Wuchen and allies' damage reduction from 90% to 70% when Wuchen uses ultimate [Tai Chi Rift] to teleport allies.
3. Increased the required rage limit by 25% (to be the same as most heroes) for unleashing ultimates [Tai Chi Rift] and [Tai Chi Rift·Switch].
//Dev Note: After casting [Tai Chi Rift], Wuchen recovers its rage a bit too fast. Therefore, we have raised the rage limit to slightly slow down his ultimate’s pace.

IV. Tianhai
1. Adjusted the counter rage of [The Divine Bell: Counter] from 0-0.7s to 0-1s. In another word, Tianhai can now counter during the whole process of casting [The Divine Bell: Counter]. A successful counter can be immediately followed by a Counterstrike Combo.
2. Tianhai can now cancel the Divine Bell by dodging, jumping, or crouching within 0.4s after casting [The Divine Bell: Counter] and [The Divine Bell: Blast]. And the clash stagger time has been extended from 0.8s to 1.1s.
3. [The Divine Bell: Blast] can now knock away enemies that are using a golden focus (weapon moves).

V. Viper Ning
1. Ultimate [Twilight Crimson: Unchained]'s ending strike can no longer be negated by dodging.

VI. Takeda
1. Increased the range of the first hit after the grab in [Mythic Grab] and [Mythic Grab·Defend] slightly, and they can now interrupt enemies in blue Focus.
2. [Mythic Grab] and [Mythic Grab·Defend] are no longer interruptable by weapon moves while Wuchen is grabbing a blade. Also, Takeda can perform assault moves more conveniently now after a grab.
3. Increased the catch range of [Mythic Grab·Defend].
4. Optimized the aiming performance by adding an aiming window to [Demonic Aid: Teleport] to show the aiming lock-on area.
5. Increased [Demonic Aid: Teleport]'s maximum aiming distance from 20m to 25m. Improved its strike range.
6. [Demonic Aid: Teleport]'s damage resistance of ultimate Focus will last till the final slash. And it won't be interrupted by wind pressure.

VII. Other Adjustments
1. Adjusted the duration of all heroes' ultimate canceling (holding) to 0.25s.

Weapon Adjustments
Ⅰ. Adjusted Damage Multiplier in Unarmed Status:
Vertical strike 1st stage Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 2.79 to 1.13
Horizontal strike 1st stage Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 2.32 to 1.12
Airborne Vertical strike stage Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 2.58 to 1.88
Sprint Horizontal strike Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 2.54 to 1.10
Crouch Horizontal strike Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 2.81 to 1.56
Sprint Vertical strike Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 2.07 to 1.13

II. Longsword
Added the second-stage to the charged attack.

Ⅲ. Greatsword
Optimized the range of the slide horizontal strike.

IV. Dagger
1. Slightly reduced startup frames and increased strike range for charged horizontal strike [Uppercut Rush].
2. Canceled Dagger Dash golden focus. Adjusted the invincible duration of Dagger Dash to the same as the dodge while using other weapons.
//Dev Note: Since the time of the golden Focus and the invincibility time of the Dagger Dash completely overlap, the golden Focus is actually not needed during the invincibility period. After the golden Focus is removed, the information expression will be more accurate.
3. Dagger Dash can no longer pass through the Tide Traps generated by [Haze].

Souljade Adjustments
I. Dagger
Added the Dagger Skill [Pride's Fall]: Added the second-stage move to Daggers' charged horizontal strike. And the final hit can recover yourself (65% of the damage values)

II. Ranged
Added [Switch·Dazzle]: Switching to a ranged weapon while carrying out a melee attack unleashes a special move (Morus' Blessing weapons excluded). The drop of [Switch·Bow] and [Switch·Cannon] will be paused. Their effects have been merged into the new souljade [Switch·Dazzle].
III. Special Souljade
While being attacked by [Starfall], you can no longer use Grappling Hooks. And the special camera will no longer be triggered.

IV. Souljade Performance
Optimized the notification effects for the completion of charging for Katana technique [Soul Slash], Greatsword technique [Earthshaker], and Nunchucks technique [Dragon Roar].

Match Adjustments
I. Controller Adjustments
1. Optimized the target-switching and lock-on canceling mechanic when the controller is in the lock-on status.
1) When locking on a target, push the right stick to switch target immediately.
2) If the right stick is pushed toward where there are no targets, the lock-on status will remain unchanged. Press the lock-on button again to cancel the lock-on.
2. Optimized map cursor interactions.
1) Optimized the absorption performance when moving the map cursor.
2) Optimized the cursor performance when moved to the edge of the zoomed map.
3. Optimized the order of preset controller settings.
1) The [Default] controller preset will now be renamed to [Classic]. The button layout preset remains unchanged.
2) Previous preset order: [Default], [Shooter], [Warrior], [Swordsman], [Custom]. New order: [Warrior], [Classic], [Swordsman], [Warrior], [Custom]. (This change to the preset order won't change saved button layout presets.)

II. Environment Adjustments
Added a number of Fireflies to the hidden cave.

III. Mechanism Adjustments
Shortened the cooldown for the mechanism in Forbidden Seals from 180s to 90s.

IV. Omni's Nightmare
The Omni's Nightmare mode of Custom Room has been temporarily unavailable for the current version due to gameplay adjustments. See you next time!

V. Dynamically-opened Regions Adjustments
Expanded the dynamically-opened regions and increased the number of high-resource areas.

Out-Game Adjustments

Feature Optimization
I. Shader Warmup
After the update, the shader warmup will perform automatically when entering the Lobby.

Shader warmup technologies bring this process forward to the login stage, which can significantly reduce stuttering and improve the gaming experience.
