June 28th (after maintenance)

Overall

• Units with single-shot ranged attack for their main weapon have had difficulty hitting enemy units, resulting in a lower win rate. Therefore, we will enlarge the size of the bullet slightly to make it easier to hit the enemies.
  ・The specific values of the adjustments are listed in the relevant unit sections.
  
• Compared to mobile fighting units, units that can use shields have only one boost step, making it difficult for them to manage their boost gauge in enemy territory and causing them to be destroyed by the enemy more often than not. Therefore, we will adjust the balance of boost gauges and boost steps for some units that can use shields in order to reduce the difficulty to operate them.
  ・Specific details of the adjustments will be described in the relevant unit sections.
  

[h3]Marasai [UC][/h3]

The size of the bullets has been slightly increased to make it easier to hit with the main weapon.In addition, we have adjusted the attack animation of "Fedayeen Rifle (Beam Blade)" to a sweep instead of a thrust to make it easier to hit.

Fedayeen Rifle
↑Bullet size: 5 → 8
Fedayeen Rifle (Beam Blade)
↑Change of attack motion
・Change from thrust to sweep.
・The hit box is now larger to the left and right, making it easier to hit the opponent.

[hr][/hr][h3]Gundam[/h3]

The size of the bullets has been slightly increased to make it easier to hit with the main weapon.

Beam Rifle
↑Bullet size: 5 → 8

[hr][/hr][h3]GM[/h3]

The gauge recovery start time after a boost step will be slightly accelerated to improve the mobility of units that can use shields. The boost gauge recovery speed while using shields will be made the same as the normal speed as well.In addition, the size of the bullets has been slightly increased to make it easier to hit with the main weapon.

Unit
↑Time to start the gauge recovery after a boost step: 0.5 → 0.33
↑Boost gauge recovery speed while using a shield: 45% → 100%
Beam Spray Gun
↑Bullet size: 5 → 8

[hr][/hr][h3]Sazabi[/h3]

The gauge recovery start time after a boost step will be slightly accelerated to improve the mobility of units that can use shields. The boost gauge recovery speed while using shields will be made the same as the normal speed as well.In addition, since its main weapon is more specialized for melee than other shield units, we will lower the damage of it and lengthen its cool down as well since the impact of the gauge adjustment on mobility will be far greater for it than other units.

Unit
↑Time to start boost gauge recovery after boost step: 0.5→0.33
↑Boost gauge recovery speed while using a shield: 45%→100%
Beam Shot Rifle
↓Damage: 26 → 24
Beam Tomahawk
↓Cooldown: 7 → 9
Homing Boost
↓Cooldown: 8 → 10

[hr][/hr][h3]Hyperion Gundam[/h3]

The gauge recovery start time after a boost step will be slightly accelerated to improve the mobility of units that can use shields. The boost gauge recovery speed while using shields will be made the same as the normal speed as well.In addition, we will also adjust the HP and the defensive performance of the "Armure Lumiere" to reduce the impact of the improved mobility and the impact on its current win rate.

Unit
↓HP: 1000 → 900
↑Time to start the gauge recovery after a boost step: 0.5 → 0.33
↑Boost gauge recovery speed while using a shield: 45% → 100%
Armure Lumiere
↓Barrier durability value: 2000→1500

[hr][/hr][h3]Gundam Exia[/h3]

In order to balance the mobility of this unit, the boost step recovery will be fine-tuned to slightly increase the difficulty of disengaging battles without using skills.

Unit
↓Time to start boost gauge recovery after a boost step: 0.8 → 0.95

[hr][/hr][h3]Gundam Barbatos[/h3]

In order to balance the mobility of this unit, the boost step recovery will be fine-tuned to slightly increase the difficulty of disengaging battles without using skills.

Unit
↓Time to start boost gauge recovery after a boost step: 0.7 → 0.95

[hr][/hr][h3]Guntank[/h3]

The Guntank's ability to contest with mobile units will remain the same, but its HP will be reduced so that it won't be too strong against ranged units.

Unit
↓HP: 1200 → 1100
Bop Missile
↑Fire rate of the Focus Fire: 0.12 → 0.1
This will fix an unintended adjustment made during the 5/25 updates.
Charge
↓Effect time: 2 → 1.4
Launch Core Fighter
↓Amount of points required to activate: 7300 → 7800

[hr][/hr][h3]Turn A Gundam[/h3]

We will decrease the magazine size for the "Beam Rifle" and lower the units HP to make it harder to achieve Moonbeam Butterfly, since the units win-rate is still very high.On the other hand, the amount of points required to activate the "Moonlight Butterfly" will be reduced so that the above changes don't cause Turn A to not get its G-Maneuver at all.

Unit
↓HP: 1,100 → 1,000
Beam Rifle
↓Magazine ammunition: 12 → 10
Moonbeam Butterfly
↑Amount of points required to activate: 9,700 → 9,000

Beam rifle
↑Bullet size: 5 → 8
Fin Funnel
↓Nu Gundam will no longer accumulate Fin Funnel marks on invincible units.

[hr][/hr][h3]Asshimar[/h3]

In order to make it easier to engage in battle, the cooldown of Asshimar's skills will be reduced. Damage numbers will be adjusted to make sure Asshimar isn't overpowered.

Napalm Grenade
↑Cooldown: 12 → 10
↓Damage: 22 → 19

[hr][/hr][h3]Methuss[/h3]

The cooldown of the "Gun Turret" will be extended since the current cooldown was allowing the Gun Turret to be placed constantly.

Gun Turret
↓Cooldown: 9 → 12

[hr][/hr][h3]GM Sniper II[/h3]

In order to differentiate it from Gundam Dynames, GM Sniper II will be changed to be able to snipe in the air allowing it to better utilize the Jump Booster.Additionally, the survivability of sniping will be improved, since the win rate of sniper units were trending low.

Unit
↑HP: 800 → 900
↑Number of boost steps: 1 → 2
↑Hovering behavior has been changed so that the unit can stay in the air, similar to Asshimar

[h2]Adjustment of the position of repair packs[/h2]

• The position of the repair packs have been adjusted for easier acess when in battle.
  

[h2]Thermal Plant (Domination)[/h2]

• Some of the shapes of the ceilings have been adjusted because there were many cases in which flying and units with blink skills were getting stuck.
  
• The shape of the high ground in target area B has been adjusted to make it easier to climb with blink skills.
  

• Model Adjustments
  ・The model of the areas set to be impassable was quite small in relation to the collision, so the shape of the model was adjusted.
  　※The collision itself has not been changed.
  ・The collisions have been fixed for places that the units should be able to be on top of but could not.
  

[h2]Buried City (Head Quarters)[/h2]

• It seemed difficult for some attackers to return to the respawn point during the core phase, so the operation and shape of the shutter gimmick have been adjusted to allow the return to the respawn point a bit easier.You can ride the upper surface of the shutter gimmick to be raised near the respawn point, during the core phase.
