4. Adjustment to Rewards Earned Based on Abyssal Arena/Redeemers Damage Contribution Penalty, as Well as Redeemers Progress
|
Developer's Notes The situation where players obtain the reward stats based on Redeemers battle progress that wasn't applied in NA/Europe has been addressed. Players will obtain CRIT RTE +4 upon completing 5% of a Redeemers battle, and a minimum damage contribution for Redeemers battle and Abyssal Arena has been set. Since some time will be required to get used to Redeemers battles if a player has the Rookie Redeemers effect activated, we made it so that there will be no penalties for Rookie Redeemers in consideration of their potentially low damage contribution. We apologize for not applying the changes more quickly, as there was a need to consolidate and review the overall minimum amount of play to obtain a play reward, considering that each player has their own unique style and environment. |
▶ The minimum damage contribution penalty for Abyssal Arena has been changed.
- A contribution penalty will be applied if the total damage dealt to the boss monster is under 3% before obtaining the final reward.
- The reward will be the same as the previous raid's and normal battle's penalty rewards when the contribution penalty is applied.
> Obtain Core x1, 20% Gold, 20% EXP, and 1 AP.
▶ When the of Abyssal Arena reward is obtained has been changed to when the battle is complete.
- Previously, rewards were provided immediately for each floor, but this has been changed to be provided at the end of the battle.
> Gold, AP, EXP, Path Transformation Points, etc fall under this category.
- If you leave or run out of time in the middle of battle, a penalty may be applied based on the total damage contribution up until the current floor.
▶ A minimum damage contribution penalty has been added to Redeemers battles.
- A 2% minimum damage contribution condition has been applied.
- The following penalty will be applied if damage contribution is less than 2%.
> The target player will be counted as failing the battle, will not have their departure count decreased, and will not receive any rewards.
> The battle can be completed without the penalty above when the Rookie Redeemer effect is applied.
▶ The reward stat order based on Redeemers progress has been changed as follows.
- Sea of Reflection and Dark Side of the Moon
