This is the A.V.A Global PD.

As previously announced, today we will be introducing the weapon content that will play a pivotal role in Operation: JADE STORM.

Before issuing operational orders, let's take a look at the new weapon items prepared to enhance the execution of your operations.

1. New Special Weapons

- New operational special weapons will now be deployed in accordance with operational orders.

[Windburst Grenade]

The Windburst Grenade is a special weapon designed to defend against smoke grenades that can cause confusion on the battlefield.

It was created to help you overcome difficult situations where your vision is obscured by smoke right in front of you.

If you use the Windburst Grenade on a battlefield where smoke is spread, the smoke at that location will disappear.

However, if you throw it while smoke is still being generated, it may briefly dissipate before the smoke rises again.

This is intended to provide a more realistic and dramatic effect.

The Windburst Grenade is a new special weapon that deals damage upon explosion and temporarily dissipates smoke through strong wind pressure.

The new special weapon is scheduled to be available for acquisition during operations.

2. New Operation Weapon

[Combat Bow]

The highlight of this operation, A.V.A Global, will feature a new type of weapon called the bow.

The bow will be applied as the primary weapon for the Sniper class and has been designed to feel like a sharpshooter.

Its actual performance possesses a charm distinct from firearms.

The Combat Bow is planned to be crafted for mercenaries who successfully complete this operation.

Given the challenge you took on to complete the mission in this operation, acquiring this weapon is expected to be difficult for the time being once the operation concludes.

The bow features the ability to switch between two types: standard arrows and bomb arrows, and offers both normal and aimed shots.

Additionally, to enhance the feel of the bow, a charging shot has been implemented, which is expected to provide greater damage and speed.

3. Operation Item Concept

[Operation : JADE STORM New item]

As previously announced, Operation: JADE STORM has adopted a green hue as its unique color, symbolizing Jade, a precious gem of the Asian continent.

Since our factions are organized into the fictional EU and NRF, we plan to express a tactical and rugged hunting camo that matches the color schemes of each point.

We ask for your continued interest as highly attractive weapon designs and concepts will be applied.

4.Operation Weapon Content]

[Changes to the weapon modification system]

We plan to change the weapon modification system starting from the time Operation is implemented.

A new Operation tier will be added; while Operation tiers will provide the same performance as the current Unique tier, they will be categorized into groups.

Furthermore, we plan to change the allocation of weapon skin modification points.

The Modification Point system is as follows:

Base Weapon: 2 points

Regular Weapon: 3 points

Epic Weapon: 5 points

Premium Weapon: 6 points

Season Weapon: 6 points

Operation/Unique Weapon: 7 points

The existing point system will be changed, and the new Operation grade will be provided in the same format as the Unique grade.

Performance enhancements will be implemented through the strengthening of existing Modification Points.

We are currently conducting continuous testing and monitoring the balance, and we will provide detailed information via an update announcement once
