From now on, Silver will be integrated. By integration, we mean that Silver will no longer be stored "separately".

Before, you could store Silver in your Inventory for every character you have created and with storage as well. After this update, Silver will be completely unified to "My Silver" and everything will be integrated regardless of which character you log in to or which Storage you use.

Silver being stored separately brought some inconvenience to some contents (i.e. when trying to recover your horse with a character that has no Silver, moving around Silver to use the Transport system, etc). We hope Adventurers continue the journey pleasantly since this improvement will be applied during this update.

※ Please note that the change won't apply to Central Market since it operates differently.

• Integrated Silver in your character inventory within the Family and Storage to "My Silver".

• Unified Silver displayed in your Inventory and Storage into one in the following UI:

• Added so a confirmation notification displays again when purchasing an item that is over 30,000,000 Silver in NPC Shop.
• Removed Silver displayed in Storage.
• Fixed so "My Silver" is used when transporting items from Storage.
• Fixed so Silver will be collected to "My Silver" instead of Storage when collecting Silver from the Horse Market and Rental Market within the Stable.
• Fixed so Silver will be collected to "My Silver" instead of Storage when collecting daily wages and wages from Guild.
• Change the message that displays when pressing the Collect Silver Reward button from the Black Spirit's Safe.

• Added so 100 Silver is given when creating a Trial Character.

Warrior

Improved so Warrior Succession can use Prime: Counter in different situations. We have made improvements so Energy Counter is always activated to aim for mid-ranged Floating or making Knockdown combos obtaining Accuracy Rate.
Also, we’ve added Forward Guard to Frenzied Dash so he can dash forward to strengthen the Warrior Succession concept even though he cannot move laterally because he is on Guard.

Main Weapon, Succession

Prime: Counter

• Changed the skill as follows:
  
  • Changed so Counter, Spin Counter and Energy Counter damage are all equally applied.
    
    • Before: Energy Counter damage 1036% x 3, Spin Counter damage 1200% x 4, Energy Counter damage 1200% x 5
    • After: Counter damage 1200% x 5, Spin Counter damage 1200% x 5
  • Changed so it always counterattacks by sending out a stream of energy when Force Slash is learnt.
    
    • (However, it does not apply when Spin Counter is being activated.)

• Fixed the issue of a lower number of mounted last attack hits being applied during Prime: Scars of Dusk.

 

Black Spirit: Prime: Spinning Slash

• Fixed the issue of skill's attack range being narrower than the skill animation.
  
  • Increased attack range accordingly so it matches the skill animation.

Counter, Prime: Pulverize

• Fixed the issue of not comboing with Prime: Pulverize sometimes when learning Counter (I to Absolute).

Ranger

With this update, not only have we improved Ranger’s skill combos, but we’ve also enabled her to now take a more proactive approach to counterattacking while evading enemy attacks in combat. While still weak defensively, we made it so that Ranger can utilize the windows of Invincibility granted from her skills while waiting for an opening.

While we removed the ability to attack instantly on collision with Flow: Rushing Wind, we added the Invincibility effect while moving with the skill, thus enabling the Ranger to quickly approach the enemy, ignore their attacks, and deliver a counterattack of their own. Also, Spirit’s Haven was integrated into Flow: Rooting, changing it from a stationary skill to now grant Invincibility when performed and removed the collision detection during the skill. We hope to see Spirit’s Haven become a more important skill to help the Ranger secure more advantageous terrain.

Guardian Wind was changed so that it can be used as a normal skill instead of having to be comboed after a specific skill. The Down Attack debuff has been removed, but its overall damage dealt has increased. Though Guardian Wind does not grant any defensive effects, it is a skill that can inflict powerful ranged damage from a distance, so we hope this skill will be useful to keep enemies at bay. Finally, the Vine Knot skill has been improved to be more easily comboed with other skills. Currently the most popular combo involves using this skill with backward Waltz of Wind, but after this update, you will now be able to combo Vine Knot with other skills such as Nature's Tremble and Wind Blade, thus creating more diverse choices.

Main Weapon

Absolute: Extreme Charging Wind

• Changed the attack damage.
  
  • Attack damage 754% x 11 → 844% x 11

 

Ultimate: Charging Wind, Extreme: Will of the Wind, Absolute: Extreme Charging Wind

Kunoichi

We made changes to the Awakened Kunoichi's flow skills since they felt a bit underwhelming during PvP.

We moved the defensive effects of Sah Spree of Sonan to Flow: Indignation, and now you can combo with Flow skills consecutively to inflict damage while maintaining the defensive effects. Also, now that Flow: Wrath applies the Down Smash debuff, you can string combos by using Lethal Spin Spree, Flow: Wrath, and Flow: Indignation to apply Smash Attack while being protected with Super Armor. We've also made changes to the buffs and debuffs granted by certain skills so you don’t feel forced to use them just to maintain those effects. In addition to that, we've also increased the overall damage of Awakening skills in PvP, so you don’t feel limited to using only Lethal Spin Spree to deal greater damage in your combos.

Main Weapon

Flow: Sky Stepping

Guardian

To retain her trait of dealing powerful, single blows, we’ve adjusted the Awakened Guardian’s overall damage for PvP. Specifically, charging skills such as Dragon’s Maw and Flow: Howling Light were improved to deal damage appropriate to the amount of time required to cast said skills. Also, since you fight without a shield in Awakening, we’ve improved Dragon’s Calling to recover even more HP as you aggressively wield your jordun in battle.

Awakening

Flow: Suppress

• Increased the duration of Super Armor during the skill.
• Changed the Critical Hit Rate buff to now apply in PvP as well.
  
  • Critical Hit Rate +100% (in PvE) → Critical Hit Rate +100%

 

Flow: To Ashes

Hashashin

We sought to bolster the Awakened Hashashin’s capabilities in dealing with multiple opponents instead of one.

First, we changed Sin Splitter by adding a defensive effect but it now no longer applies a debuff in PvP, thereby allowing for the usage of other Core skills.
Collapse was the most used skill after Constriction and Core: Sin Splitter, and so we added an Attack Speed buff to the skill, which now lets your Hashashin deal damage faster with combos that start with Collapse.
We’ve also heard from many Adventurers that they couldn’t fully utilize Dune Slash’s Knockdown debuff for the entirety of its duration due to Flow: Dune Strike’s Down Smash debuff interrupting the flow of the entire combo, so we decided to remove the Down Smash debuff from being applied by Flow: Dune Strike.

Lastly, for Silent Breach, we changed it so that defensive effects now only apply while moving with the skill, and made the skill activate faster, thus changing it into a skill useful to apply surprise debuffs upon unsuspecting foes.

Awakening

Flow: Hourglass of Recall

• Changed to immediately disappear and move to saved location when using the skill with your dual glaives.

Flow: Voracity

Sage

Some skills for the Sage in Succession have had defensive effects changed to Forward Guard, so when using a skill with Forward Guard after using Prime: Rift Chain, both Super Armor and Forward Guard will be in effect for a short time.

The attack damage of some skills have also been increased to make the character more powerful in monster zones, and the convenience of movement skills has been improved with updates in stamina and defensive effects.

Prime: Rift Chain will now use less stamina, allowing it to be used more frequently, and Prime: Spear Bolt has had its dash attack replaced with a longer duration of defensive effects while moving.

Additional changes have been made for Prime: Spear Bolt so that the camera now faces the opponent while moving instead of rotating during skill combos as it did previously. Additionally, the All DP Reduction effect of Realm of Anguish has been changed to Magic DP Reduction. These overlapping damage reduction effects will allow it to now deal even greater damage.

Finally, we have removed the Bound effect from Atomagia and added Forward Guard to Void Gateways. Atomagia used to activate Sage's defensive effects at the same time, and this has been transferred to Void Gateways so that it can be activated more frequently.

The Guild Bonus Payout System has been revampled to make the distribution of bonuses easier and more convenient. Points will be allotted based on guild activity, and bonuses will be allotted based on those accumulated points. (Unlike the accumulated 'Guild Activity' based on your contribution to guild experience, 'Guild Points' are used solely for bonuses and disappear when paid.)

Though there is a default setting for how points are distributed based on Guild Activity, such settings can be changed to whatever fits the guild's preferences. As for guild members, all there is to do in this revamped system is submit a point form based on your accumulated Guild Activity. This will set the incentive level for when bonuses are allotted. However when participating in Node/Conquest Wars, such point forms will be submitted automatically.

We have also introduced the new position of 'secretary', who will be in charge of these applications. The secretary will help the guild leader in making point application management more convenient.

Once all point applications are submitted and managed, the guild masters and advisors will be able to distribute the bonuses right away. For those who have completed special activities in addition to the designated activities, their bonuses can be manually distributed. In this revamped Guild Contribution (Point) System, points can be allotted to all members to be used on special occassions or guild events, or Guild Allowances can be adjusted in bulk?. We hope this will make the guild experience more enjoyable.

Valtarra's Clairvoyance & Memory Improvements

As one of the necessary ingredients to create Odore's Spirit Essence, Valtarra's Clairvoyance has been known for being much more difficult to obtain than the other ingredients. Unlike the other ingredients that can be looted from defeated monsters, this ingredient involves an extra step with the Tanning Life Skill. Not only did this require Adventurers to dabble in both PvE and Life Skill content, but also needed to have a bunch of Gathering Mastery and gear to improve their odds of obtaining the item.

Therefore, to address these cumbersome steps in obtaining Valtarra's Clairvoyance, and in the hopes of encouraging many more Adventurers to rise to the challenge, we decided to lower the difficulty of obtaining Valtarra's Clairvoyance and Memory to levels more similar to the other ingredients of Odore's Spirit Essence.

First off, we've now made it so that you have a low chance of looting Valtarra's Clairvoyance and Memory from defeated monsters. We've also lowered the HP of Ferrina, and, while also making their gathering loot drops unaffected by Life Skill Mastery, we've adjusted the loot drop chance to be close to the previous rate when having up to 2,000 Life Skill Mastery.

Second, regarding how long the [Weekly] Valtarra's Memory quest took to both defeat and tan 3,000 monsters as opposed to other weekly potion quests, we reduced the amount of monsters to 500.

Do note that any Valtarra's Clairvoyance and Memory obtainable from Hunting during events will still be affected by your Hunting Mastery.

• Improved the Valtarra's Clairvoyance and Memory obtainable from Ferrica and Ferrina of Navarn Steppe as follows.
  
  • You now have a low chance to loot Valtarra's Clairvoyance and Memory from defeated Ferrica and Ferrina.
    
    • Ferrica: Valtarra's Clairvoyance, Valtarra's Memory
    • Ferrina: Valtarra's Memory
  • Changed so the drop rate of Valtarra's Clairvoyance and Memory are no longer affected by your Life Skill Mastery.
    
    • The "Gathering Item Drop Rate" effect of life skill tools are still applied.
  • The drop rate of Valtarra's Memory has been increased by 4.3 times.
• Reduced the HP of Ferrina in the Navarn Steppe by 40%.
• Increased the drop rate of Valtarra's Memory by 3.42 times for the following monsters during treasure piece drop events.
  
  • Blue Whale

  • All Hunting monsters in Drieghan
  • All Hunting monsters in O'dyllita

•  Fixed the issue of [Wild] Phnyl chasing the adventurer for a very long distance.

• Changed the number of items required to turn over to Crio in Velia for the Paste Bait knowledge to Discarded Glass Bottle x3 from Seaweed x10.

We give our sincerest thanks to our Adventurers who have been enjoying the pre-season of Node Wars.
