[h3]

■ Major Fixes and Improvements [/h3]


- Added Trio Mode in the main lobby.




[h3]■ Hero[/h3]


| All

- Added Passive skill for all heroes.

> You can check out the passive skill information at the top right of the hero selection screen and at the bottom left of the screen upon entering the battlefield.


[Dev Note]

Since the beginning of Shadow Arena, passive skills were special traits that were unique to each Heroes. However, without playing, let alone the skills being difficult to grasp, the features in the skill description were listed in a lengthy and disorganized way.

To resolve this, we made improvements so that passive skills of each Hero can be checked immediately as well as add new passive skills that fit accordingly to the Hero’s trait. We will continue to monitor the changes that occurs with the addition of new passive skills and make further improvements.

> Changed the following skills to be used in the aiming direction while moving in a diagonal direction.

Ataraxia



| Garden of Roses (R)

- Changed so Garden of Roses can be destroyed in parts.

- Increased the duration of Garden of Roses from 7 sec to 10 sec.

[Dev Note]

Ataraxia's Garden of Roses was a skill that could trap enemies, yet it was difficult for the inflicted opponent to deal with this skill. There were also many situations where opponents were confined to a specific location in the rose garden which resulted in unfair deaths for them. To resolve this, the structure of the garden will be divided into sections so that it can be destroyed in parts.

Jousting



- Improved to quickly charge and perform basic attacks upon performing basic attacks after using passive skill Relentless Assault.

- Improved the interface at the bottom of the screen upon entering the game.






| AI Bots

- Improved so Jordine AI bot could counterattack the Shield of Heidel skill.




[h3]■ Deathmatch[/h3]


- Improved so Equipment/Consumable slots are differentiated in the Point Status.

- Added chests that contain consumable items in the Arena.
> Treasure chests appear on the field 30 sec into the game.

> Obtainable items from treasure chests: Flame Bomb, Freeze Bomb, Water Bomb, Matchlock, Elixir of Thorn, Mysterious Kettle, Explosive Trap, Sandwich, HP Potion



- Added new Arenas (What Plantation, Heidel).

> The new arenas can be checked at a set probability upon entering Deathmatch mode.

[Dev Note]

The new Deathmatch arena, Wheat Plantation and Heidel, will have slightly different rules from the existing Deathmatch. First, the flow of the arena system will not be applied and normal monsters or treasure chests will appear so players can obtain drop items. Additionally, if you respawn, you will naturally leave the battle area, so in the preliminary stages, battles will be held in smaller-scale engagements in the outskirts of the region, and in the latter half, you will have to bear the risk of being inflicted fog damage when you die. We look forward to the various situations to occur on the new battlefield





Wheat Plantation




Heidel






- Adjusted the difficulty of Promotion Match

- Changed the Promotion Match conditions to the following.

[Dev Note]

During the testing period of pre-season, the promotion match being burdensome and stressful was a common opinion among players. As a result, we have alleviated the conditions of promotion match at lower tiers.






[h3]■ Additional Fixes and Improvements [/h3]


- [Lahn] Fixed an issue where getting hit caused you to fly away abnormally when hit with Nimbus Stride (R).
