Patch 95.20.KR features Launcher (new Machina specialization), Forest Dragon Nest (Easy), class balancing, and more.

The original patch notes for EYEDENTITY can be found here.

New Machina Spec [Launcher]

New Specialization Line

• “Launcher” is a new first specialization that Machinas can select
• The two second specializations available are “Impactor” and “Luster”

Launcher

• Launcher has an experimental augmentation that utilizes a powerful blaster
• Shoot powerful ranged attacks using the blaster energy weapon

Skill	Icon	Desc
L - Action		Rush at an enemy’s legs, knocking them down
L - Buster		Strike an enemy relentlessly using the explosive force of your blaster
Laser Piercer		Generate intense light and shoot it forward as a beam
Carnival Rush		Gradually gather light energy within your body, eventually striking enemies within a large range with overwhelming force.

Overview of Class and Skills

• Launcher is a Physical Agility class
• Melee strikes use the blaster to power up attacks in fluid combos. The ranged skills enable Launcher to deal broad attacks at a distance, but requires time to charge up
• You can select various sub-triggers to utilize subskill utility. Watch for opportunities to switch between aggressive and defensive gameplay
• Use Illusion Fist during any skill to cancel that skill and use it immediately

Focus and Core Skills

• [L-Action] starts melee combos and has low cooldown. Quickly surprise the enemy, using [L-Action] and [L-Buster] to follow up.
• [Laser Piercer] is a skill that fires a piercing laser beam. Charge it up and fire it forward after a short delay. [Carnival Rush] is a souped up version of [Laser Piercer] with a long delay, but greatly increased range and damage

Impactor

• Impactor is a close-ranged class that specializes in light elemental physical attacks
• Utilize your resource, Pulse and Intense Pulse, to enhance your skills

Skill	Icon	Desc
Pulse		Stacks of [Pulse] are generated at a certain rate when primary skills hit. After a certain number of stacks, your movement speed is increased
Intense Pulse		Consume [Pulse] to convert to [Intense Pulse]. Super armor is increased while [Intense Pulse] is active. [Intense Pulse] is consumed by [Intense Shocker] main skills
Domination		Smash enemies from the air, damaging them
[Awakened] Limit Runner		Fly into the air, gathering energy, and deliver a powerful kick to the enemy. Obtain 20 [Pulse] upon hitting the skill. After using this skill, gain absolute critical strikes on skills for 5 seconds.

Overview of Class and Skills

• Impactor is a close-proximity class that scales off of agility and light attack
• When you convert Pulse to Intense Pulse, you can use Intense Shocker which consumes Intense Pulse as a resource
• [Intense Shocker] is activated after using main skills as an EX passive. It reinforces all skills, not just certain skills, but increases chargeup times but allowing you to exceed the damage of the original skills.

Focus and Core Skills

• Understand the flagship mechanics of acquiring, converting, and consuming [Pulse] and [Intense Pulse]. Figure out the proper usage of these resources to unlock maximum potential
• [Domination] can be used to finish combos for [Stunt Rush] and [Illusive Fist]. Reduce the execution time of skills to drive the attacks at the enemy
• Awakening Passive [Limit Runner] can be used to immediately acquire [Pulse] stacks and grant unconditional critical strikes

Luster

• Luster is a secondary DPS and buff class that specializes in magical light attacks
• Use [Luminance] stacks to enhance your skills and buff effects

Skill	Icon	Desc
Eternal Light Quartz		Use rays of light from your blaster to grant beneficial effects to allies. Does not affect enemies. Increases all elemental attack. Eternal Light buffs stack with other class buffs
Eternal Light Soul		Gather light energy and grant allies beneficial effects. Does not affect enemies. Increase physical and magic attack. Reduce all incoming damage. Recover HP for every successful attack (max 500k). Eternal Light buffs stack with other class buffs
[Awakening] Flood Trick		Place a strengthening pad while dodging backwards. The board itself has no effect, but if you hit [Eternal Light], the Eternal Light buff effect is applied to a wide area
Countdown		Count down, absorbing power. During the countdown, light attack is increased, and when certain skills are used, a wing extends from behind you and attacks enemies. Each wing’s attack has the skill’s attack power

Overview of Class and Skills

• Luster is a secondary DPS and buff class that scales with INT and magic damage
• Use [Luminance], acquired from main skills, as a resource to enhance your buffs
• [Countdown] allows you to deal damage on your own
• This is a class that requires you to constantly attack to maintain buffs

Focus and Core Skills

• Each buff has a unique activation condition and the one you use will vary depending on the situation
• [Eternal Light Quartz] after acquiring the Awakening Passive has a short duration and slightly weaker buff effect, but can also be used offensively. However, since it consumes Luminance, it should be used to benefit allies and attack enemies (T/N little iffy on this translation)
• [Eternal Light Soul] has a long duration and strong buff effects, always available for allies. After acquiring the Awakening Passive, it will consume the maximum stacks of Luminance to transform it into the ultimate buff [Eternal Light Explosion]
• [Awakening Passive] When [Countdown] and [Castia] are used together, another buff will be applied to your offensive skills

Developer’s Comments

Dragon Raids are the highest difficulty 8-person content, and requires individual players all having the skills and gear to clear. However, it is difficult to reach these standards, and the burden of entry is very high.

In this Lite difficulty, I want to adjust the mechanic failure penalty so that more players can access this content.

Mechanics that immediately result in death have been nerfed, and the debuff effects that overly burden the healers have been removed.

The users who feel the psychological burden when challenging top content now have an opportunity to improve understanding of mechanics and how to defeat the dragon.

• Tortree’s deadly poision and Aux’s deadly poison damage reduced
• [Drought] status from spring removed(?)
• Damage of deadly toxic waves during nighttime reduced
• Damage from mushrooms explosion reduced
• Reduced damage taken from failing to block Hierendel’s attack

Nest Rewards and Weekly Clears

• All difficulties share reward limits and clear counts
• Example: If you receive Gate 1 rewards on Lite, you will not get any Gate 1 rewards on Normal
