addedFeatures(Devs) Added Global Cooldown Setting We’ve implemented a new Global Cooldown setting that allows us to apply cooldowns to all Jutsu after casting one jutsu. The mechanic is similar to the existing End Cast / Self-Stun mechanic. However, unlike Self-Stun, this cooldown only prevents the immediate casting of another Jutsu. Players will still be able to move, perform melee attacks, charge chakra, and take other actions during this brief window. This change is intended to gradually shift the meta away from instant Flicker + multi-Jutsu burst combinations. While these combos can feel powerful and satisfying to execute, they are extremely difficult to balance - particularly when certain masteries are combined. Individually, most masteries have a limited number of instant-cast Jutsu, but when mixed together, they can create burst chains that are nearly impossible to balance effectively. Our goal with this adjustment is to create a healthier, more sustainable combat environment while preserving the fluidity and responsiveness that makes combat engaging.
