[Updates] Patch Notes - August 23, 2023

Sorceress

• Bugfix Fixed the issue where the appearance of the cloak looked unnatural when wearing Orzeca’s Rose armor. 🔗

Berserker

Dev Note We sought to make improvements to the arsenal of skills the Awakened Berserker could use in PvE. The most common combo made use of [Seismic Blast], [Flow: Split Shot], [Flow: Scatter Shot], [Flow: Slugfest], [Titan Blow], [Flow: Ancient Wave], and while said skills were on cooldown, Berserkers could only use [Blasting] - [Ground Lifting] repeatedly. Today's update takes the somewhat lackluster [Flow: General Disarray] skill and brought new life into it as [Flame Pummel], which we hope will be used a major skill for PvE situations, and relieve Berserkers from having to repeat [Blasting] - [Ground Lifting] to deal more powerful combos.

Corsair

Dev Note We sought to further accentuate the Awakened Corsair's ranged-focus gameplay as opposed to her more melee-centric Main Weapon skills. With this change, we focused on improving [Wave-breaker Patraca] as a skill for Corsair to keep her opponents at bay, and added the new [Entangling Vortex] skill. These improvements allow her to increase the gap between her foes to even greater range, and we also added the [Surface-slicer Patraca] skill with its Knockdown debuff that can come in handy even when [Wind-piercer Patraca] is on cooldown.
