Change to Harmful Immunity – No longer interrupts Harmful effects on the target on application. Still makes the target immune to any new Harmful effects being applied during its duration.

Golden Hammer – May only be used once per battle

Stasis now removes Harmful effects on application as part of the status effect.

Change to Speed Increase/Decrease

We have made an update to the way our combat approaches Speed Meter Increase and Speed Meter Decrease in most cases.

Now, if a character’s ability states: “Increases/Decreases Speed Meter by X%” (or increases target’s speed meter, or this character’s speed meter, etc.) then the Speed Meter adjustment will be done via an Effect applied to the character. The effect has no duration, just immediately adjusts the speed meter on application. Speed Meter increase is applied through a positive effect in our system and Speed Meter decrease is applied through a harmful effect in our system.

This means that:

• Speed Meter Increase
  • Counts as application of a Helpful effect. It doesn’t remain on the target for a duration so wouldn’t be counted for any abilities that rely on # of Helpful effects for mechanics.
  • Should be blocked by Helpful Immunity. If a character is inflicted with Helpful Immunity, attempting to grant bonus Speed Meter to that character should fail.

• Speed Meter Decrease:
  • Counts as application of a Harmful effect. It doesn’t remain on the target for a duration so wouldn’t be counted for any
    abilities that rely on # of Helpful effects for mechanics.
  • Can be resisted. This effect application now should go through the effect Tenacity/Potency check.
  • Blocked by Harmful Immunity – Speed Meter Decrease should not be able to be applied to a character that has Harmful Immunity

These changes should not affect abilities that grant a character an “extra turn” such as Shan Yu’s “Now It’s Your Turn” or Empereror Zurg’s “Zurg Vision”. They should also not affect the Speed Meter increase that Raid NPCs gain from their Sorcereous Strength passive (e.g. Speed meter gained from Sorcererous Strength passive should not be blocked by Helpful Immunity).

Magic Increase/Decrease

Ability Magic Increase and Decrease effects from abilities now goes through the effect system.

Ability Magic Increase effects from abilities are now considered as Helpful effects. Increasing a target’s Ability Magic will be blocked by Helpful Immunity.

Ability Magic Decrease effects from abilities are now considered as Harmful effects. Decreasing a target’s Ability Magic will be blocked by Harmful Immunity.
