[Updates] Patch Notes - April 19, 2023

Warrior

Dev Note For Warrior Succession, we've reduced the inconvenience of having to use Prime: Heavy Strike until the final hit, while also allowing other skills besides Prime: Heavy Strike to deal enough damage. Previously, the last hit of Prime: Heavy Strike did not activate smoothly and could not combo into other skills, making it somewhat difficult to use. To address this, we've improved it so that even if the skill continues until final hit, you can now combo into another skill and maintain the flow of combat.

Archer

Dev Note To enhance the Archer class's unique concept and appeal, greatbow and crossbow skills have seen an overall improvement with today's update. The Archer has had some inconveniences, such as skills affected by terrain, a lack of ways to deal with approaching enemies, and low accumulated damage of combos in PvE.
