Combat Mechanics
1. Lyca – Keeper of Glades
– Fixing the description error of the Nova Fall skill to make sure it aligns with the skill’s actual effects
2. Thoran – The Fallen King
– Optimizing the description of his Resurrection skill. The actual effect remains consistent with the original.
3. Shakir – Furious Howl
– Optimizing the landing tile selection logic of his Ravaging Claws Ultimate during auto-cast. Shakir will no longer land on top of an enemy before being pushed aside in a fixed direction.
4. Talene – Resurging Flame
– Fixing the issue where the Divine Conflagration Ultimate would not properly benefit from her Ultimate Power attribute.
– Optimizing the target tile selection logic of her Divine Conflagration Ultimate during the Dream Realm battle against Skyclops. After the adjustment, Talene will be able to eliminate the Skyclops’ summons more efficiently.
– Optimizing Talene’s preview animation in her display interface.
5. Ludovic – Wreathed Eternalist
– Optimizing the target tile selection logic when repositioning the everbloom field with the Ethereal Blooms skill. The field will now prioritize covering the weakest ally while covering as many enemies and allies as possible.
6. Satrana – Ember Enchantress
– Fixing the issue where her “Ignite Passions” skill would sometimes fail to ignite enemies who can revive, such as Thoran.
7. Granny Dahnie – Forest Guardian
– Fixing the issue where her Haste would reduce the control duration of her Threshold of Jade Ultimate’s on enemies.
8. Viperian – Shadow Serpent
– Fixing the issue where Viperian would burn more HP than usual when creating Darkvipers with the Spiritual Viper Ultimate due to certain Battle Drills mechanics.
Bug Fix
1. Fixing the issue where Power values would appear abnormally high in certain modes after entering some modes, such as Trial of Abyss. After this fix, your Power may seem lower than before in some modes, but this is only a display adjustment, your actual stats remain unchanged.
2. Fixing the incorrect order in which some recruitment results are shown. This fix does not affect your actual recruitment results.
Honor Duel Adjustments
1. Increasing the strength of some Epic Equipment. Please check in-game descriptions for details.
2. Using an Artifact that benefits only a specific hero will boost that hero’s chances of appearing in the store.
