[Update] Hero Series Vol.2 Unlocked & 15 Tasmon Redrawn

🎉 Headline features

Hero Series Vol.2 - Shiva, the Frostbloom Spear Princess / Fenrir, the Verdant Gale Wolf-King Knight

Two new heroes are waiting for you, both in their fallen form. Just like Vol.1, it is a seven-rank journey, and at the end one of them joins you as a partner.

• You can challenge it after you clear Torment. Until then it is visible but locked
• Your partner joins as a Rare on Normal, and as an Arcana on Death
• Conquer all seven ranks and you get a homecoming illustration unique to that hero
• Hero numbers start from 1 for each hero. Shiva No.0001 and Fenrir No.0001 each exist only once in the world (Vol.1 numbering continues as before)

Both Vol.2 heroes come with a new mechanic. Each one changes how damage reaches you, and neither works like any of the existing 16.

• Shiva - Part of the damage you take is frozen and dealt in pieces over a few seconds (the total is unchanged)
• Fenrir - Damage that pierces the shield is split evenly across the whole party instead of landing on one member

Starter Pack: Parchment & Woodcut is now on sale

This pack is the only one that unlocks hero content on top of the cosmetics.

• In Hero Series Act 2, you can also take the hero you did not choose as a partner
• Switch that partner between Normal / Fallen / Awakened
• Bulk-craft the gear in your storage by choosing a rarity and a level
• Contents: the title "Woodcut Pioneer" / the "Parchment & Woodcut" theme + 6 background colors / Astral Coin ×2 / Divine Coin ×1

⚖ Balance changes

Signature skill of the Rare hero partner

The signature skill of a partner recruited on Normal (Rare) is now half the power of one recruited on Death (Arcana). They used to be identical, which made the Rare partner far stronger than its grade. The mechanic, cooldown and passives are unchanged.

Daily Boss

• Now once per day (it used to be once in the morning and once in the afternoon)
• Rewards are now eggs and memorial coins only - no gear or evolution stones

The last four difficulties - act boss ATK and HP

We have retuned the ATK and HP of the act bosses in Inferno / Apocalypse / Armageddon / Oblivion - lower attack, thicker health. The point of the change is a long fight you settle into, not one that ends in a single hit.

🔧 Bug fixes

Battle

• never triggered again once it had fired, as long as you kept farming the same stage
• Simply reordering your party fully healed and revived fallen members. A reorder alone no longer restarts the battle
• The Daily Boss started with the HP and the fallen members carried over from your previous battle
• Setting 🔁 (repeat) on an Act Boss lost the whole setting once your key expired

Heroes and engravings

• A one-of-a-kind number (engraving) could get stuck on "waiting to be issued". If the request fails, it is now picked up again automatically along with the 5-second autosave, and the reason is shown on screen while you wait

Screen

• Updates on Trial in Suggestions showed "Tallying votes" while the vote button was not yet clickable. It now says when voting opens
• Etching now shows on screen that Max HP % has a cap
• Skill names in the battle effects stayed in Japanese in English and Chinese (evolved hero skill names)

🧭 Quality of life

• The Tasmon box can now be filtered and sorted by class. You pick role, then class. Only classes you own are listed, so the list stays short early on
• Characters are drawn larger inside the portrait. The window size is unchanged - only the artwork is scaled up
• Evolution stone crafting can now be repeated in bulk (×1 to ×20). From the second craft it picks materials from your items automatically, and stops when you run out
• The mission "Go Further" (etching / storage / item expansion) was moved to the end. It used to appear before Etching was unlocked, which left you stuck
