Developer’s Notes (Chaos Mage)

General

  • Although Chaos Mage was one of the first Awakening classes, most of her skills were useless, so we prioritized revamping her. This should not affect her DPS, but rather make her easier to play.

Removed Force Mirror Dependence

  • She had SP restrictions because of her reliance on Force Mirror from the War Mage tree.
  • As such, we changed the base Force Mirror and added its debuff to Gravity Blast EX.
  • In addition, we are planning to revamp Force Shield and Force Mirror for War Mage.

Adjusted Skill Positions

  • We have adjusted the cast locations of skills like Gravity Blast, Triple Orbs, and Black Hole.

Increased Control of Balls of Gravity

  • Gravity Rush and Focus Gravity were awkward skills that relied on Balls of Gravity and cooldowns.
  • We reduced their cooldowns and increased the Balls of Gravity duration, so that you can use your Awakening actives whenever you want.
  • We have also added an Awakening for Gravity Trap, which increases the duration of Balls of Gravity, and gives you more options for using your Awakening actives.

Improved uncommonly used skills that are clearly Chaos Mage skills

  • Summon Comet and Meteor Storm were not previously a part of her Awakening, so we have added an Awakened Meteor passive for the both of them.
  • This is intended to fill in the rotation gaps when Fast Forward is on cooldown, and increase the usage of Meteor Storm.

Developer’s Note

  • Since Dragoon requires both of these skills for her Class Mastery III and Awakening, we lowered the level limits to relax the SP requirement.

Lancer

Erratic Power

  • Changed from a toggleable buff to a durational buff.
  • Final Damage increase changed from 20% to 25%.
  • Developer’s Note: The Labyrinth update had many loading screens, so the Erratic Power buff would constantly disappear between loading screens. As such, we made it a regular buff rather than a toggleable buff.

Stab Tug

  • Aggro ability increased.
  • Damage increased from 2936% to 2940%.
  • Developer’s Note: This was intended as an aggro skill, but its effect was too minimal, so we increased its effectiveness.

  • Enemy is blown away.
  • Damage increased from 2612% per twirl to a flat 6251%.
  • Developer’s Note: This skill had a long cast time and low utility, so we have reduced the overall cast time.

Martial Spirit

  • No longer shares a cooldown with Stalwart Spirit, and both skills can be active at once.
  • Developer’s Note: Since the offensive and defensive buffs shared a cooldown, you could only use one of them, which made the other one useless. In addition, since Stalwart Spirit is a defensive buff, it restricts your movement, which is difficult to deal with because of boss patterns in nests. As such, we separated the two skills.

Stalwart Spirit

  • No longer shares a cooldown with Martial Spirit, and both skills can be active at once.
  • Previous effects changed.
  • Reduces damage taken by 20% for 10s.
  • Instantly recovers 10% HP.

  • Damage increased by 100% on accurate hits.

Twirling Thrust EX

  • Reduced number of twirls, and added a whirlwind that pulls in enemies.
  • Damage increased by 20%.
  • Developer’s Note: Dragoon has limited mobbing ability, so we have changed this skill to allow for this.

  • Visual effect changed.
  • Delay added before and after the skill.

Class Mastery II

  • Damage increase changed from 15% to 20%.

Class Mastery III

  • Removed Vulnerable effect for Forward Pierce.

  • Damage increase changed from 13% to 15%.

[Awakened Passive] Spinning Takedown

  • Effect added to aid in the correct timing.
  • Additional hit changed to a rainbow color.

  • Removed 25% chance to increase damage by 3000%.

  • Cooldown 10s
  • Developer’s Note: We have made these changes because it previously did not match the flow of gameplay.

Evil Punisher

  • Skill removed.
  • Developer’s Note: This skill is great against large bosses, but its damage is inconsistent. In addition, all of the Evil Spirits must be hit to activate the buff, which causes deviations in DPS. As such, we have replaced the skill with a new one called “Over the Rainbow.”

Over the Rainbow

  • Skill added.
  • Charges forward with some invincibility frames. Can be used on the ground, in the air, or after Bifrost.
  • Damage 6778%
  • Invincibility 0.65s

Bifrost

  • Damage increased from 18300% to 25540%.
  • Invincibility time of 0.5s during the jump added to tooltip.
  • Developer’s Note: The skill is often cancelled by enemy attacks during the jump, so we have added some invincibility.

Valkyrie

[Awakened Passive] Stalwart Spirit

  • 1% HP recovery every 2 seconds changed to 1% HP recovery every second.
  • Developer’s Note: This patch focuses on Dragoon, and we will address Valkyrie skills, specifically Stalwart Spirit, in subsequent patches.
