Mystic
- Rework Martial Spirit Shard For Mystic after Succession, we have focused on expanding the use of certain skills and on decreasing the burden that the Martial Spirit Shard creates on your play. Based on our Mystic players' opinion that skills such as Prime: Hidden Claw, Prime: Fist Fury, etc., are underused, we have adjusted these skills so that they could be more useful when advancing or retreating. Also, we have decided to decrease the number of Martial Spirit Shard spent for Crouching Wolf to allow stronger combos since the skill required too many shards when the process through which the character builds up and uses the Martial Spirit Shards by connecting the skills quickly is important for Mystic.
- Buff Crouching Wolf will be enhanced after succession.
- QoL You can use 10 Martial Spirit Shards to increase your attack speed by 20% for 10 sec. when using Succession: Crouching Wolf.
- QoL You can now activate Flow: Prey Hunt when you have 10 or more Martial Spirit Shards and activating it will consume only 10 shards.

Lahn
- Buff Bridled Despair Based on the various opinions of our players, we have upgraded the awakening of Lahn. Especially, there were many requests on improving her attack speed or attack range. So we have revised the left and right attack ranges of Bridled Despair and enhanced the connection to other skills after using Tailspin and Flow: Vice. In the case of Lahn after succession, we have decreased the PvP damage and the block effect (e.g. super armor) of her main skills. For now, Lahn after succession has the upper hand in various PvP situations thanks to her mobility and stability, so we have made adjustments to allow other characters to cope with her. However, some of the content that was released through the Global Lab two weeks ago was changed.
- QoL Deadly Dance You can now use Deadly Dance in combo faster after the second hit of Tailspin.
