- [p]CET: 08:00–09:00[/p]
- [p]UTC: 07:00–08:00[/p]

- [p]Asia Server Integration[/p]
- [p]The KR/JP and CN/Asia servers will be merged into a single Asia server to improve matchmaking quality.[/p]
- [p]After maintenance, players from KR/JP and CN/Asia will be automatically transferred to the Asia server. No action is required.[/p]
- [p]Weapon Balance Adjustments[/p]
- [p]Zen’s Primary Weapon - Mk14[/p]
- [p]Rate of Fire (RPM): 250 → 300 (Increased)[/p]
- [p]Wood Material Penetration: 0.9 → 0.8 (Decreased)[/p]
- [p]As a result, wooden materials will now be destroyed more quickly when fired upon with the Mk14 compared to before.[/p]
- [p]Karnival's Primary Weapon - AKM[/p]
- [p]Damage: 47 → 42 (Decreased)[/p]
- [p]Karnival’s Secondary Weapon: Sawed-Off (shotgun) → Makarov (pistol)[/p]
- [p]The AKM still eliminates enemies with four body shots, but AKM combat now also has a higher chance to cause DBNO (downed) situations. The AKM also has reduced wall penetration efficiency.[/p]
- [p]Zen’s Primary Weapon - Mk14[/p]
- [p]Shooting Stability Adjustment[/p]
- [p]Weapon sway caused by stance transitions (standing/crouching) has been adjusted by general weapon type, increasing by approximately 17–38%.[/p]
- [p]Repeated stance switching during combat may feel less stable.[/p]
- [p]Matchmaking Wait Time Improvements[/p]
- [p]Additional improvements have been implemented to reduce matchmaking wait times.[/p]
- [p]If a match is not formed quickly, the system will now expand the player search range more efficiently, shortening the overall time required to find a match.[/p]
- [p]Maintenance may end early or be extended depending on circumstances. Any changes will be announced via an update to this notice.[/p]
