Jutsu

Updates to Combat Tempo: We have been reviewing combat over the past 2 weeks and have observed that many players are auto-defaulting to stall, DR, and utility spam + poison tactics because damage ramping requires too much setup. In an attempt to bring back easy-to-setup burst and speed up battles, the following changes have been implemented:

Damage Increases

• Double-tagged DI jutsu have been reverted back to 35% + 35% to speed up burst potential.
• All Bloodline and normal 60AP jutsu have received a +5% DI buff.

  Note: Some jutsu have not received this +5% DI. These are part of a wider review of that specific Bloodline's total power budget, which will be addressed in future updates.

• Added a new jutsu: Blazing Reprisal.

Bloodlines

Blue Blade Eyes

• Quintessential Flake Ground: Added + Move.
• Blade Resonance Seal: Removed Buff Prevent, Increase Taken, and Damage.
• Arctic Frost: Converted to Pierce + Stun.
• Sapphire Command: Converted to Increase Taken + Decrease Damage Given.
• Blue Crimson: Move removed; Wound added.

Shiroi Youso

• Wind Release: 35% increased damage given + 35% decreased damage taken + movement.
• Fire Release: 35% increased damage given + 35% increased damage taken + 35% afterburn.

Injected Jutsu

All injects are losing their second effects and becoming single-effect only, adjusted as follows:

• Great Fire Annihilation: 45EP damage + 30% wound
• Great Vacuum Bullet: 40EP damage + 40% lifesteal
• Planetary Devastation: 40EP damage + 30% DR
• Voltari: Unchanged
