Sorceress

Dev Note For Sorceress Succession, we've reduced the high PvP damage concentrated in Prime: Black Wave so you can no longer stack damage too easily with a single skill.

Sage

Dev Note Sage Succession can use Prime: Rift Chain to vanish completely from an enemy's sight and reposition. Combined with Super Armor, this allowed Sage to maintain defensive effects through most actions while looking for CC opportunities. To introduce more risk when Prime: Rift Chain is on cooldown, we changed Dimensional Compression's defensive effect from Super Armor to Forward Guard.

• Rework Dimensional Compression (Main Weapon, Succession) Changed the defensive effect: Super ArmorForward Guard 🔗

Drakania

Dev Note Drakania Awakening has been adjusted to balance the overpowered Dragonblood: Tip of the Scale and further define the roles of her Hexeblood and Dragonblood skills. Previously, Dragonblood: Tip of the Scale combined wide-range Knockdown with Drakania Awakening's mobility, which led it to function as an engage AoE CC skill that could also bypass opponents' Forward Guard. Accordingly, we've reduced the effectiveness of Dragonblood: Tip of the Scale. Dragonblood skills have been adjusted to maintain defensive effects and focus on patiently looking for openings. In contrast, Hexeblood skills have been adjusted to use quick actions to apply CC to a small number of enemies, then commit to fast, heavy damage in exchange for taking on greater risk.
