Naraka Bladepoint End Of August Update Patch Notes

Naraka Bladepoint End of August Update

Hero Adjustments

Tianhai

  • Adjusted Tianhai’s jump-and-smash response when activating [Titan’s Call] and all its talents. The trigger is changed from “button press” to “button release,” allowing Tianhai to deactivate the Ultimate without using the jump-and-smash.

Other Optimizations and Adjustments

  • Optimized the display of skill icons such as [Flash: Repeat], [Demonic Strike], and others when they have no uses remaining.
  • Optimized the collision for skills such as [Healing Ray], [Tai Chi Teleport], [Demonic Aid: Teleport], and more.
  • Reworked collision logic for teleport skills such as [Flash], [Flying Edge], and more, reducing issues of being unable to teleport to the intended location due to special circumstances and complex scenes.
  • Slightly expanded the interactive range of the Soul Vessel generated by Tessa’s Ultimate.

Weapon Adjustments

Greatsword and Polesword

  • Adjusted the release method of Congeneric Charged Moves. After a combo, you now need to tap Horizontal or Vertical Strike again to trigger the next Move.
  • Optimized the animations for the movements of Congeneric Charged Shots.

Souljade Adjustments

Dual Halberds Souljade

In-game Adjustments

New Morale Challenge in Capture the Spirit Well

  • Changed the second round of Morale Challenge to Capture the Flag.

Rules: When the Morale Challenge starts, a flag will spawn in the middle of the battlefield. Players have to capture the flag, go to any of their Spirit Well areas, and stay there for 10 seconds to successfully deliver the flag and increase their team’s Morale. The team with higher Morale will win the rewards for that round.

New Custom Settings in Capture the Spirit Well:

  • Total points required to win;
  • Rebirth countdown time;
  • Points gained per kill;
  • Morale Boost toggle;

    • When you release your soul, your Remains location will be marked automatically and will be seen by your teammates. The mark works the same way as destination marks, and can be aimed at or canceled.
  • You can now drag to adjust weapon positions in your Weapon Bag. After dragging, the Weapon Bag’s sorting rule changes to free sorting. Tapping the Sort by Quality button restores it to sorting by quality.

BOT Mode Adjustments

  • Optimized the pace of battle in BOT Mode, slightly reducing the chance of multiple AI opponents appearing simultaneously.
