    • Having 15-24 points = 15x Jewel of Harmony.
    • Having 5-14 points = 10x Jewel of Harmony.
  • Unlimited rewards, based on personal character score.
  • In order to get your reward you'll have to type /weeklyimperial during a week, for the previous week reward (if you are eligible).
  • Note: This reworked rewards will start after this week, so current week still runs on previous system.
     

Dynamic Characters Balance tweaks

This is the last tweak for this edition that does involve council feedback and that is still aiming for the "characters power periods".

On the last stage (25rr) there will be a full rework of characters made by us from scratch (with 30rr stats), each class vs each class, where the final result will be a 40~60% chance to win with any char, ofc with small differences.

This will also apply to the "hunt power" of most chars, they will be normalized on 25rr stage to be closer in terms of hunt time, with smaller differences between them.

This will be done in order to prepare for END-GAME, where everyone should have equal chances to have fun and continue fighting.

There may be only small tweaks made by us (anytime we would consider) after the 25rr stage, depending on how characters will evolve during the last 5 resets unlocked by quests.

This are the changes from this patch:

• [UPDATED] Global PvP damage raised with 12%.
• [UPDATED] Duel damage rate increased from 65% of normal PvP damage to 75% of normal PvP damage.
• [UPDATED] Gens damage rate increased from 53% of normal PvP damage to 65% of normal PvP damage.
• [UPDATED] Illusion Temple damage rate increased from 62% of normal PvP damage to 70% of normal PvP damage.
• [UPDATED] Chaos Castle damage rate increased from 58% of normal PvP damage to 66% of normal PvP damage.
• Note: The initial PvP damage rates were set for early game & early mid-game, where nobody have W3, ddi, etc. in order to prevent PvP being only one-shots. Now we raise it to a normal value so characters can still die when they fight, even with w3, ddi, etc.

DL

• [UPDATED] Fire Burst AoE increased from 4 to 7.
• [UPDATED] PvM damage increased with 15%.
• [UPDATED] Speed gained from AGI raised from AGI/35 to AGI/28.
• Note: Since last nerf of DL he is on a bad spot on PvM due to how his skills work. Now he finally has a good PvM AoE skill to use and a more decent Hunt power.

RF

• [UPDATED] Replaced Beast Uppercut weapon skill with Killing Spree weapon skill.
• [UPDATED] Reduced Killing Spree damage with 20%.
• [UPDATED] Reduced Chain Drive damage with 5%.
• Note: We do have a problem with VRF Hunt power, which is way better than it should be. This is mostly caused by using his weapon skills instead of the skill he's designed around (Chain Drive).

MG

• [UPDATED] Increased PvP damage with 4%.
• Note: Small PvP buff.
