(2) Descendants
- Viessa/Ultimate Viessa
ㄴ Fixed an issue where Viessa's passive skill 'Ice Sphere' regenerates even when attacking while mounted on a vehicle
| # Designer's Comment - Currently, when a toggle-type skill is active and the player mounts a vehicle, skill casting ends. The baseline for buff skills that grant status effects over a duration was to maintain those effects when mounting a vehicle. - However, while it was intended for buffs with granted status effects to remain active upon mounting (e.g., Bunny's ‘Lightning Emission’ skill), having new stacks of those buffs added while on a vehicle was not in line with our baseline. - In Viessa's case, continuing to attack while mounted after "Ice Sphere" has already been applied was considered normal behavior. However, we have determined that new "Ice Sphere" instances being generated again while on a vehicle is inconsistent with our baseline. - This situation had existed previously, but we have confirmed that simply moving while mounted allows players to continuously eliminate surrounding enemies, resulting in efficiency beyond our intended scope. We plan to address the related behavior to align it with our baseline. Going forward, skill behavior while mounted will be applied under the same consistent standard. |
(3) Equipment & Modules
- Improved the explosion effect that occurs when using "Exterminator".
(4) Party
- The Recommended Party and Quick Join matchmaking rules have been improved as follows.
