New BTG features, quality of life changes, Raven, Silver Hunter, and Defensio PvE balancing, bugfixes, and more!
[PvE] Class Balancing
/\c81\Silver Hunter
Some fixes and some QoL to a forgotten class. The Falcon change is very superficial, it's made to just make the Falcon a tiny tiny bit more useful. It basically went from completely useless to "eh, it's kinda something but not really worth still"
[Insight] now allows you to hold LMB to chain into [Tornado Shot Instant]
[Tornado Shot Instant] now allows you to press Jump to use [Swift Evasion]
[Falcon] special attacks now deal light elemental damage
/\c64\Raven
Continuing on from the previous patch with more adjustments to partially revert the class.
Changing the spread to reward good [Guillotine Cross] usage/bubble management and fixing a few more issues that the class had. This also made [Open Edge EX] much much more reliable to hit and reduce the cooldown of your Key Skills. [Class Mastery II] got reverted to the old version pre-rework because it flows better now. At the same time, these changes also make [Rain of Death] and [Umbra] more useful in rotation.
[Chain Punisher]
- Damage decreased: 8296% --> 6660%
- [LMB] follow-up attack animation reverted to old slam down animation
[Guillotine Cross] damage increased: 21958% --> 27447% [Class Mastery II]
- PATK decreased: 40% --> 30%
- When [Dead Fall] is used, [Rake] is enhanced to [Rake Instant] and when [Dead Fall] hits enemies, [Rake Instant]'s cooldown is reset
[Awakened Dead Fall] now allows you to press S while casting to move backward before lunging forward
[Open Edge EX] now spins a chain around you rather than sending a projectile forward
/\c78\Defensio
[Awakened Beyond the Wall] damage reduced: 9621% --> 7697%
[Awakened Taunting Blow] damage reduced: 15166% --> 12132%
[Awakened Taunting Blow Instant] damage reducedD: 8627% --> 6902%
[Class Mastery III] Lariat damage reduced: 800% --> 640%
[Trick] NEW: generates 5 Steam upon successfully iframing an attack with [Trick]
