First off, we designed her Lv. 56 Rabam skills to be comboable with other skills. Her Lv. 57 Rabam skills to each have Frontal Guard and Super Armor, respectively, designed to add some utility to bolster her stability when necessary. Last but not least, her Lv. 58 Rabam skills include [Spirit Sparks], which helps her melee defenses with Frontal Guard and HP Recovery, and [Soul Charm], which can be useful when used as Maegu re-enters the fray thanks to the HP Recovery effect.
Her Prime skills include [Prime: Fan of Flames], a ranged attack that reduces your enemy's Movement Speed and can keep them at bay, and [Prime: Nukduri Dance], which deals melee area damage with an AP increase buff that can be used in all directions.
With the additions of Rabam and Prime skills, we've reduced the damage of [Foxspirit: Tag] and [Lurking Claws] for PvP. Since Maegu is gaining new melee skills to her arsenal, we decided to implement such adjustments to balance her strengths in both ranged and melee combat.
Last but not least, we have removed the illusory double that ""charges forward"" for [Foxflare], [Petal Play], and [Flower Shroud]. Thanks to her doubles that can spawn front, back, and even to the sides, Maegu has been regarded to be in the top tier for PvP, so we decided to add some limitations to the number of skills that spawn these doubles.
We are continuing to test and observe Maegu's gameplay for PvP internally, along with analyzing various data we've accumulated from the game. We will look to see if today's changes were either too extreme or too lax, and we plan to make further changes if deemed necessary.
- Added Rabam skills.
- You can learn the first Rabam skill at Lv. 56, the 2nd at Lv. 57, and the 3rd at Lv. 58.
