We increased the spin attack speed of Awakening Kunoichi's "signature skill," Lethal Spin Spree, thereby increasing its utility, while also improving the skills it can be comboed from and into. While we've made slight tweaks to her skill damage, we hold high expectations that the changes mentioned above will greatly improve her speed and flow of skills in battle.
Also, we have enhanced Awakening Kunoichi's uniqueness by improving her skill effects. We received feedback from our previous update that only Succession saw updates to the skill effects, so we hope these changes will be pleasing in the eyes of our Awakening players.

We also revamped their resource costs (MP and Stamina). First, with the addition of Super Armor to Prime: Air Strike, we changed its resource from MP to Stamina, while Unveiled Dagger was changed from consuming Stamina to MP. Second, we reduced the Stamina cost for Prime: Twilight Dash, from 300 to 200, which we felt more appropriate for the distance traveled by the skill. Last but not least, we changed how Prime: Nocturne and Prime: Kamasylvia Slash activate by transferring a portion of the command inputs from the former skill to the latter, thus improving the utility of using both skills depending on specific situations.
● Prime: Kamasylvia Slash

For Awakened Lahn, we further polished her skills for PvP. First off, we had reduced the somewhat excessive attack range of her Awakening's "signature skill" Soul Raid and increased its cooldown, but with feedback stating that it was difficult to maintain the current skill with this increase, we decided to reduce the cooldown by 2 seconds. To help Lahn up her combat game, we added an Evasion Reduction Rate -6% debuff to Tailspin, while also changing Earthly Pain's All DP -15 debuff to -20. Lastly, taking Blood Moon Twist's slow cast time into consideration, we decided to make the skill comboable after Bloody Stride and Flow: Vice to increase its utility.
● Eye of the Phoenix

● Soul Raid
- Changed skill cooldown from 17 sec to 15 sec.
● Tailspin

The new crossbow skill Sunfall fits the Archer's class theme. Using this skill allows your Archer to activate seeds of light in the air, which turn into light-forged arrows (summons) that rain down upon your foes. While not dealing massive damage, we hope this skill will help supplement your damage when used with desperation moves in high-end zones such as Quint Hill.
- Changed so skill commands can be locked.
* When Flow: Grand Bloom is locked, Full Bloom will toggle.
● Full Bloom
