Character Balance Adjustments
Maximus
- Ironblood Retribution damage reduction: 100 → 60
- Roar of Conviction cooldown increased: 4.5s → 8s
- Ultimatum of the Hero Assembly central stun duration reduced: 3.5s → 3.25s
Comment:
We are softening Maximus’s sustained dominance through Roar of Conviction and reducing the frequency of guaranteed kill opportunities via Ultimatum of the Hero Assembly and Ironblood Retribution.
Shifu
- Dragon Kick damage increased: 125 → 150
Comment:
Shifu’s overall performance looks stable, but we wanted to slightly boost his damage output to compensate for some shortcomings.
Akira
- Slot Change
- Ghostwalk assigned to the Shift slot
Comment:
We’re adding the sword skill Guihaeng to allow Akira to lead battles more aggressively.While this skill requires high mastery to use effectively, players who master it will gain flexible mobility and wide-area crowd control for dynamic plays.
Al-Manat
- Hashashin cast delay reduced (before and after attack).
- Hashashin damage reduced: 360 → 270.
- Throwing Daggers damage increased: 75 → 80.
Comment:
Currently, Al-Manat struggles to act independently and relies heavily on team setups.We’ve reduced the Hashashin animation time to shorten opponents’ reaction windows, allowing Al-Manat to seize initiative and create opportunities even when infiltrating alone.
For Hashashin, we want to reduce the hesitation—“Is it okay to use now? Will it land? What if it misses?”—so you can cast it more decisively. At the same time, we’re dialing back the outsized reward relative to its hit difficulty. Because Al-Manat’s kit tends to burst then pause, we’ve slightly reinforced the downtime with Throwing Daggers to stabilize her combat flow.
Rei
- Arctic Spike charge damage reduced: 320 → 310
- Arctic Spike charge time reduced: 1.6s → 1.4s
- Glacial Explosion charge time reduced: 1.6s → 1.4s
- Frost Armor duration reduced: 1.25s → 1.0s
Comment:
We’re rebalancing Frost Armor, which showed too high efficiency, while shortening charge times to make the overall tempo feel smoother.
Electra
- Condemnation of Desire grab duration reduced: 0.3s → 0.2s
Comment:
We aim to maintain Electra’s crowd control potential but reduce the excessive suppression from multi-chain grabs.
