Debugging Hero News

[p]Map Clear Reward Reroll Feature Added[/p][p][/p]

• [p]You can now refresh the reward list up to 4 times.[/p]
• [p]Reroll charges are restored by defeating bosses.[/p]

[p][/p][p]Normal Monster Adjustment[/p]

• [p]Reduced Strength stats for mid-to-late-game monsters and increased their damage multipliers.[/p]

[p][/p][p]In the later stages, monster stats were disproportionately high compared to variable cards, which significantly reduced the usefulness of debugging.[/p][p]To address this, Strength stats have been lowered while maintaining overall damage by increasing the damage multiplier. This enhances the impact of Strength debuffs.[/p][p]Additionally, when using a Hypnosis Coin to convert late-game monsters into allies, their high damage multiplier will allow for better scaling potential.[/p][p][/p][p]Boss Monster Adjustment[/p]

• [p]Simplified the stat increase algorithm upon phase transitions.[/p]
• [p]Reduced damage multipliers and increased Strength stats for early-to-mid-game bosses.[/p]

[p][/p][p]Previously, when a boss changed phases, stats increased based on the following conditions:[/p]

1. [p]If a specific stat had been heavily reduced by debugging, it would increase significantly.[/p]
2. [p]If not, all stats would increase evenly, with the total amount being greater than in case 1.[/p]

[p]This system was intended to reward targeted stat reduction, but due to a lack of explanation, many players misunderstood it as the boss simply "undoing your debugging," causing frustration.[/p][p]This update removes condition 1, so stats will no longer spike back after heavy debuffing.[/p][p][/p]

[p]QoL Improvements[/p][p][/p]

• [p]The difficulty selection UI has been improved.[/p]
• [p]After completing the tutorial, the game now automatically transitions to the difficulty selection screen.[/p]

[p][/p][p]Item Adjustments[/p][p][/p][p]Mana Buckler[/p][p][/p]

• [p]An item removed in the demo version has been reintroduced with a new effect.[/p]
• [p]When Kirara reflects an enemy projectile, a portion of her \[Durability] is directly added to the projectile’s damage.[/p]
• [p]This also applies to projectiles reflected through the Mirror Shield ability.[/p]

[p][/p][p]Ribbon[/p]

• [p]Increased the shared Positive Debugging rate for allies. \[Base: 20% → 30%][/p]

[p][/p][p]Piercing Arrow[/p]

• [p]Added a Debug Value Amplification effect for all projectiles.[/p]

[p][/p][p]Throwing Daggers[/p]

• [p]Changed the effect so that Kirara now throws daggers when performing a normal attack, instead of during a dash.[/p]

[p][/p][p]Swift Potion[/p]

• [p]Removed the Attack Speed Debugging amplification effect that was previously granted through item upgrades.[/p]
• [p]Added a new effect that reduces Kirara’s dash cooldown.[/p]

[p][/p][p]These changes aim to buff underused items and expand viable build options by introducing synergies between items.[/p][p]Below is a sample gameplay video showcasing a projectile-focused build using the reworked items.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p][/p][p]Bug Fixes[/p]

• [p]Enemy projectiles are now forcefully removed when a boss clear cutscene begins,[/p]
• [p]resolving an issue where lingering projectiles could damage the player during cutscenes.[/p]

QoL Improvements

• Added explanations for Debuggable Stats.
  

New Items

Added 3 enhancement items that only appear when you own certain prerequisite items.

Core stats such as Strength and Durability generally scale along a diminishing curve.
Some of the new enhancement items directly add a portion of the stat value to damage, creating a linear growth pattern. This is expected to enhance late-game value for builds that use these items.


Grenade Shards

• Appears when holding Holy Grenade.
  
• Increases the area of Kirara and allies’ explosion attacks, and directly adds a portion of Kirara’s Strength to the damage.
  

Manual: Sword Wave

• Appears when holding the Basic Sword Manual.
  
• Charged attacks additionally launch a projectile slash.
  

Sword Manual: Strength

• Appears when holding the Basic Sword Manual.
  
• Charged attacks directly add a portion of Kirara’s Strength to the damage.
  

Bug Fixes

• Fixed an issue where, if a boss phase transitioned during a Game Over (due to allies or traps), the player could start at the beginning of the stage while still holding variable cards.
