[Update 3/5]

Stamina Usage -> ST Reduction
-Fixed the status influence list.


Greeting From Onigiri Service Team.

Specification changes to Battle Mounts will be implemented during the maintenance on 3/5/2026 JST.[hr][/hr]
[h2]Changes to Status Specifications[/h2]
Currently, Battle Mounts have primary stats: Pow, Vit, Wis, Mnd, and Dex.
By allocating status points to these, secondary stats such as P. Atk are affected.

The following changes will be made to these stats. In addition, the UI of the Partner Panel will be adjusted accordingly.

■Removal of M. Atk and Renaming of P. Atk
Currently, M. Atk does not affect the damage dealt by Battle Mounts.
Accordingly, M. Atk will be removed, and P. Atk will be renamed to Attack.

■Removal of Cooldown Cut
Since Battle Mounts skills do not have cooldown times, Cooldown Cut is an unused parameter.
Accordingly, Cooldown Cut will be removed.

■Changes to Wis (Renaming and Affected Parameters)
Currently, increasing Wis raises M. Atk and Critical Rate.
With the removal of M. Atk, the following changes will be made:

・Wis will be renamed to Sense.
・A new secondary stat Critical Force will be added and will increase based on Sense.

■Changes to Mnd (Renaming and Affected Parameters)
Currently, increasing Mnd raises Cooldown Cut.
With the removal of Cooldown Cut, the following changes will be made:

・Mnd will be renamed to Talent
・The display of the secondary parameter ST Reduction will be added, and it will increase based on Mnd

ST Reduction has existed internally and previously increased based on Vit, but with this update, the primary stat affecting it will change.

■Addition of Atk Spd Display
The secondary stat Atk Spd will now be displayed.
P. Atk Spd has existed internally and previously increased based on Pow and Dex.

The above changes can be summarized as follows:



[hr][/hr]
[h2]Removal of Type[/h2]
Currently, the type listed in the Partner Panel for Battle Mounts is always shown as obedient, making it an unused parameter.
Therefore, the type display will be removed.

・The purgatorium treasure NPC is only available when the purgatorium dungeon is available, and the items

[h3]・Battle Mounts Status Reset Available for Free for a Limited Time![/h3]

[hr][/hr]
・As part of strengthening the Main Quest progression flow, the following quest will be added:
「Find Amaterasu」
　This quest will become available after clearing the quest [Go to Kyoto] and will continue to appear until certain designated quests are completed.

[hr][/hr]
[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]
・For the Vanguard Swap Character Houou, a note will be added to the Vanguard Ability unlock screen because the display of the required Awakening Lv was difficult to understand.
　The unlock condition for Houou’s Vanguard Abilities is that “the Awakening Lv of any one Style has reached the required condition.” However, the Awakening Lv displayed at the top of the Partner Panel shows the total Awakening Lv of all Styles combined, and only the required Awakening Lv was displayed in the condition field. As a result, the requirements were not clearly communicated.

・Fixed an issue where the values shown as being added when allocating stats for Battle Mounts did not display the correct increase amounts.
Please note that the actual values applied after confirmation were correct.

・Fixed an issue in the Growth tab of the Partner Panel where the Awakening Lv display was not updated immediately after increasing the Awakening Lv using the [Awakening Lv Unlock] button.
　Please note that the updated value was correctly reflected in the Awakening Lv Unlock window.

[hr][/hr]
[h2]Others[/h2]
【Important】 Notice Regarding Customer Support Handling:
In response to the issue where the Awakening Lv display for Houou was difficult to understand, players who increased Houou’s Awakening Lv between 2/19/2026 JST after maintenance and 3/5/2026 JST before maintenance will be eligible for a rollback of the Awakening Lv unlocked during this period, as well as a return of the items used for unlocking.
If you wish to request this rollback, please contact us via the inquiry form and include the [target Style] and the [date and time the unlock was performed (approximate time is acceptable)] within the eligible period, and clearly state that you are requesting a rollback.Please note that when performing the rollback, the skill slot status and the number of skill edit uses will be reset. Skill levels will remain unchanged.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.
