Descendant Rebalance/Improvements

(1) Serena

  • Transcendent Module: Archangel

ㄴ Common Changes

ㆍ Updated the tooltip to display the Critical Hit Rate Increase per skill in a way that reflects how it is actually applied.

ㆍ Critical Hit Rate Increase → Final Critical Hit Rate Increase

ㄴ Sacred Strike

ㆍ Changed the skill's Aim and Fire method to ground-targeted.

ㆍ Increased the Final Critical Hit Rate Increase.

ㆍ 20% → 100%

Content Improvements

(1) Equipment & Modules

  • Updated the Trigger Module "Supply Fortress" to also recover Rounds when using Barrier type skills and improved the Rounds recovered from 5% → 7%.

(2) UI & UX

Module slots that were previously locked until the required Mastery Rank was reached have now become always visible, and a required Mastery Rank Info tooltip has been added to those slots.

  • Updated the Onslaught completion count displayed per player in the Onslaught intro scene to show the combined total of Onslaught completions across all Stages.

(3) Miscellaneous

  • Fixed an issue where auto-targeting the Vulgus Drop Pod with a Weapon or Skill would target the lower part, causing problems due to terrain elevation differences.

Bug Fixes

(1) Descendants

  • Fixed an issue where the phrase "Cannot be acquired by any means other than the skill effect." was missing from the skill summary descriptions in all languages except Korean.

ㄴ "Law of the Battlefield" from Serena's Transcendent Module "Battlefield Nun"

ㄴ "Holy Fire" from Serena's Transcendent Module "Archangel"

  • Fixed an issue where "Extinguish" from Blair's "Truly Deadly Cuisine" failed to recover HP.

(2) Equipment & Modules

  • Fixed an issue where Thunder Cage effects would stack in Onslaught.

(3) Content

  • Fixed an issue where the "Recovery" category of the Inversion Reinforcement Effect was incorrectly displayed as "Assistance."

  • Fixed an issue where the tooltip content for the "Void Axium" and "Axium Mining" Missions in Axion Plains was displayed incorrectly.

(4) Monsters

  • Fixed an issue where Void Intercept Battle: Extreme "Frost Walker" would not face the Descendant after using certain skills.

(5) UI & UX

  • Fixed an issue where the remaining time for the Accelerate Research Event was displayed abnormally when 1 day or less remained.

  • Fixed an issue where the "Bastion of Immortality" Mission name was displayed incorrectly under "Infiltration Operation: Axion Plains" in the "Weekly Content" section of the Descendant Mission Board.

  • Fixed an issue where the "Bastion of Immortality" Mission icon was not displayed when checking the map in Albion.

  • Fixed an issue where "Bastion of Immortality" was not displayed in the Acquisition Info in the Library.

  • Fixed an issue where Trigger Module Loot J and K could not be set as Target Rewards.

(6) Miscellaneous

  • Fixed an issue where changing a preset within an Operation Zone after a Mission ended would cause the player to be moved to Albion.

Thank you.
