The servers of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT will be suspended for maintenance from Mar 29th, 2023 at 23:00 (UTC) to Mar 30th, 2023 at 03:00 (UTC). We suggest that you log out in advance and enter the game again after the maintenance.

The details for this update are as follows:

I. Limited-time Event: Illume Project 2674

Event time: Mar 30th, 2023 - Apr 26th, 2023 at 20:00 (UTC)
In the year 2674, mega-corporations have developed into financial behemoths that rule over all of Astra. What does the future of our world hold in store?
1. During the event, head to the Club in Astra to accept quests and obtain Energy Cubes. Every day, up to 3 quests can be accepted from the 8 quests.
2. Gather Energy Cube to receive loads of event rewards, and unlock the plots in Illume Project 2674 event.
3. Quests cannot be accepted once the event is over. However, you can still unlock story plots with your Energy Cubes.

I. Akos Hu
1. During [Feral Frenzy] and [Feral Frenzy: Grab], Akos Hu can now perform Tiger Leap by Jumping or Double Jumping without sprinting first. The maximum height of the Tiger Leap is also increased.
2. Enriched the movement performance of Tiger Leap.
3. Adjusted the airborne Horizontal Strike during a Tiger Leap. It can now interrupt the attack of enemies under Tiger Leap status.
4. Increased the effective range of the 3 consecutive tiger strikes under the ultimate [Feral Frenzy].
5. Purple Focus Pounce will no longer trigger the Stone Form of Greatsword.
//Dev Note: Before the adjustment, Akos Hu had to sprint to Tiger Jump, and a Double Jump would cancel it, resulting in great restrictions on Akos Hu's actions during combat. We want to free him from these restrictions so that he can unleash the true power of "The Rebel Claw." We will continue to monitor the combat experience of Akos Hu and his opponents.

II. Justina Gu
1. Increased the duration of [Arctic Wraith] and [Arctic Wraith: Blizzard] from 20s to 30s.

III. Wuchen
1. After casting [Tai Chi Rift], the special effect of a successful Teleport is enlarged in height.
//Dev Note: Currently, Wuchen's Ultimate [Tai Chi Rift] brings a high fault tolerance to the team, which becomes more important in matches that require higher ranks. This has led to a slow combat pace and a long confrontation time. So we adjusted that when Wuchen casts [Tai Chi Rift] in some flat terrain, it becomes more visible to the enemy teams, thus accelerating the combat pace.

IV. Valda Cui
1. The water spear of [Nether Nightmare] and the Vertical Strike water spear of [Nether Nightmare: Bind] can now hitstun Vajra, Almighty General, and Bronze Mech in any status, in which:
(1) The water spear of [Nether Nightmare] will put the enemy into a heavy staggered status.
(2) The Vertical Strike water spear of [Nether Nightmare: Bind] will put the enemy slightly staggered.

V. Takeda Nobutada
1. [Mythic Grab: Takedown] will no longer grab the weapon of the enemy, and the damage multiplier is reduced from 2.4 to 1.4.
2. [Demonic Aid]'s airborne Demonic Strike damage is reduced by 40%.
3. [Demonic Aid: Teleport]'s hitstun effect on Vajra, Almighty General, and Bronze Mech is enhanced.
4. [Demonic Aid: Engulf]'s Demonic Strike damage is reduced, the rate of converting damage into Health is increased, and Health restored from Demonic Strike remains unchanged.

VI. Yueshan
[Line Breaker: Ambition]'s startup and recovery frames are accelerated, and the jump height is reduced.

I. Polesword
1. Slightly shortened the required time of a successfully charged vertical strike.
2. Increased the Rush distance of a sprint horizontal strike, and reduced the damage multiplier from 2.59 to 2.17.

I. Now, when sliding on the slope, you will gain a higher speed and a longer sliding time.

II. One can't pick up items or switch weapons when being stunned.

III. Added a "Collision" mechanism for explosive ranged attacks. Here are the rules:
1. When the explosive ranged attacks from different teams hit each other, they will explode in advance and cause corresponding effects on nearby enemies.
2. Only explosive ranged attacks in the same group will trigger the above effect upon a joint hit. The current grouping is as follows:
Group 1: Burst Arrow Souljade;
Group 2: The Awakening Souljade;
Group 3: Cannon and its Souljade;
Group 4: Swarm and basic shoot of Feria Shen's Bronze Mech;
Group 5: Ballista and cannon shoot of Feria Shen's Bronze Mech;
Group 6: Valda Cui's water spear attacks under all her ultimates;
Group 7: Tarka Ji's [Inner Fire: Gigaflame].

I. In-game
1. In the scenes of The Bloodbath, Troves will be automatically removed if no one picks them up within 2 minutes.
2. In The Herald's Trial, Quick Match, BOT Mode, and Shadow Surge, an arrow indicator is added to the line between the character and the preview Shadow Corruption on the map.

II. Illegal teaming detection
1. We've used an AI system to detect illegal teaming behavior more accurately and quickly.
2. Players detected to have illegal teaming behavior will be subject to certain matchmaking restrictions and punishment will be enforcved promptly.

I. Added Camera Vibration Feedback option for Ranged Weapon
Players can choose whether to have screen vibration when shooting with a ranged weapon, depending on the type of weapon in use. Taking into consideration of players' habits, we've set the option off by default for those who already have the corresponding characters.

II. Integration of the Settings interface
We've integrated 'controls' and other settings. It's now much easier for players to switch between different setting pages.

I. Client

Rough, rude, and reckless, Akos was born free and raised by tigers.
Never comfortable within the rigid confines of civilization, he served a brief stint in the military before deserting and throwing himself into the fight against the Empire's injustices.
With the people of CloudSparrow behind him and his beloved Feria at his side, he plans to burn the old world down and build a new one from the ashes!

//Dev Note: With Rage-related talents, [Mech Mayhem: Co-pilot] was cast more frequently than we expected, so we decided to increase the Rage required for casting the beacon.

Hero Adjustments
I. Wuchen
1. Adjusted the performance of [Spirit Blades·Array]. When the blade hits an enemy, instead of reducing the weapon's durability and triggering Clash or Counter, it will now reduce the enemy's energy by 5,000 points.
2. Reduced the CD of [Spirit Blades·Array] from 25 sec to 22 sec.
3. Adjusted the interval at which [Spirit Blades·Array] will auto release. The first blade is released after a shorter interval as enemy approaches, then the rest blades are released with constant intervals of 3 seconds between each one.
//Dev note: When the mechanism of a blade that automatically releases and clashes against an enemy’s attack is included in the same skill, duel results become unstable and unpredictable. For this reason, we’ve adjusted the mechanism of the F2 skill and the combat pacing.
4. Increased the Vulnerable value of [Tai Chi Rift·Switch] for the teleported enemy from 10% to 15% while maintaining its duration.

II. Ziping Yin
1. Adjusted the Damage Reduction inflicted by the Skill [Aromatherapy] from 20% to 30%.
2. Instead of directly triggering [Inspiration Shield], the Skill [Aromatherapy: Protection] will now apply an 8-sec [Inspiration], then trigger [Inspiration Shield] when Ziping Yin is hit, lasting for 8 sec.
3. Adjusted the max Rage for her Ultimate [Saving Grace] and all the Talents from 75,000 to 60,000.

Ⅲ. Matari
1. After releasing the Skill [Silent Flutter] and its derived Skills, Attack is boosted by 15% for 3 sec.
2. Reduced the CD of [Silent Flutter: Retrace Flash] from 30 sec to 22 sec. Adjusted the duration of the mark from 7.5 sec to 9 sec after the mark is left by the flash, and the Retrace Flash can be used under attack.
3. The Ultimate [Unseen Wings] and [Unseen Wings: Assassin] can be used under attack now; however, after Matari casts the Ultimate, she no long refreshes the skills for other teammates (but can still refresh her own skills).
//Dev note: When being hit, Matari now can use [Unseen Wings] and be teleported back after releasing [Silent Flutter: Retrace Flash]. We’ve made these adjustments to bring her higher flexibility and to encourage players to come up with more combat strategies.

Ⅳ. Feria Shen
1. Optimized the special effect of the Skill [Gunplay: Aim] when raising the gun.
2. Optimized the CD of Bronze Mech when switching the Cannon forms under all talents from 5 sec to 4 sec.
3. Optimized the releasing performance and space determination of [Mech Mayhem: Co-pilot]’s Beacon. Now it can be placed on rough terrain.
//Dev note: It was hard for Feria Shen to place beacons when battling on rough terrain, so we’ve made the optimization.

Ⅴ. Tarka Ji
Slightly increased the range of the 2nd-stage dodge (elbow strike) when he is casting his ultimate.

VI. Takeda Nobutada
Reduced the staggering time of [Mythic Grab·Takedown] when hitting non-Blue Focus enemy.

VII. Other Adjustments
Added a display of the enemy’s Energy Bar to the caster when some skills that can reduce the enemy’s energy (e.g., [Zephyr Prison], [Spirit Blades·Array], etc.) hit the enemy.

Showdown Adjustments
I. Combat Adjustments
1. Reduced the ability of Hammer Evil-Ent and Mountain Ghost to bounce back ranged attack.
2. Hammer Evil-Ent will not use Purple Focus strikes twice in a row.

Ⅱ. Omens Adjustments
1. Reduced the trigger interval of the Ice Thorn. Now, the Ice Thorn will only be triggered when the player enters the triggering area.
2. Adjusted the position of the following Omens in Gelid Yushan: Frozen Earth, Ice Wind, and Ice Thorn; and slightly increased the number of these Omens.

Ⅲ. Enigma Domain Adjustments
1. Adjusted the boss’ respawn location and rules to make it respawn nearer to the player.
2. Adjusted the distribution of monsters near Eventide Temple Cortile and Bhiku's Dorm to make it easier to find.
3. Adjusted the distribution of monsters near Lake Yellowleaf to prevent from disturbing the boss battle.
4. Now, in the Enigma Domain, Scout Bells will be placed instead of Nether Bells. And the number of Scout Bells is greatly increased.
5. Optimized the animation of disappearing the monsters when time’s up.

Ⅳ. Souljade Adjustments
1. Cavalry Bloom·Ice-wielding
Damage Multiplier: adjusted from 6.06 to 6.49

8. Ice Bomb
Increased the bullets' Frostbite Damage Multiplier by 16%.
9. Frost Cannon
Increased the Cannon's Frostbite Damage Multiplier by 16%.
//Dev note: In the current version, the Souljades of some ranged weapons are too strong to break the Astral Aegis, so we have made a balance adjustment accordingly. At the same time, the overall ranged weapon damage has been appropriately increased by adjusting the damage reduction multiplier of the Weaponry Chest Boon.
We hope you will understand and support this adjustment, and a certain number of Souljades Gifts will also be delivered after this update.

V. Hero Adjustments
1. Temulch
Reduced talents' and scattering arrows' Damage Multipliers of breaking Astral Aegis by 30%.
2. Tianhai
1) Optimized the Counterstrike Combo’s move and attack range after Tianhai transforms into Vajra so that it’s more convenient for him to hit the enemy.
2) Now, the boss monster will take Tianhai in Vajra form as their prior target.
3) Increased the Damage Multipliers of Vajra's ranged grab from 0.35 to 1.
VI. Animation Adjustments
Added an animation of gathering uncollected Souljades into the player’s bag when settling.

Brand-new content!
I. A New Episode of Showdown


1. New Level: Gelid Yushan
Among the mist around Yushan Snowy Peaks, countless heroes had gambled their lives for that ancient artifact.

It's time to meet this new boss, the Matron of Yushan, on the top of Yushan Ruins.




2. New Hero Joined: Tianhai
This humble monk transforms into a colossal Vajra warrior, all those who stand in his path shall fall.
In Showdown, Tianhai has a new ability to "Counter" after transforming into Vajra. The Counterstrike combo is enhanced when equipped with the exclusive Souljade that enhances the ultimate, and the Boss is staggered for a longer period.

3. New Mode: Enigma Domain
In the game of Enigma Domain, monsters grow stronger over time. Before time runs out, the more monsters you defeat, the more rewards you will win.
Come and explore the Enigma Domain, there are loads of new Souljades await!

4. New Type of Omens: Frostbite Omens
Affected by Matron of Yushan, many Omens turn into [Frostbite Omens] which accumulate heroes' Frostbite. When Frostbite reaches a certain amount, the hero will be frozen.
Equipping Souljades with [Ice-wielding] attribute can help to resist the effect brought by Frostbite Omens.

5. Showdown Souljade: Ice-wielding
In the new updates, there's a chance to get Souljade with [Ice-wielding] attribute in all Showdown levels. Meanwhile, [Ice Essence] can be obtained by completing weekly challenges. [Ice Essence] can imbue [Ice-wielding] to the those Souljades without this attribute.
Attacking monsters with [Ice-wielding] Souljades can accumulate Frostbite of the monsters. When Frostbite reaches a certain amount, ice blast will be triggered and cause damage to monsters' Astral Aegis.
Each [Ice-wielding] Souljade you equip increases you [Ice-wielding] by 1.
Higher levels of [Ice-wielding] deals more damage to Astral Aegis and can better resist Frostbite Omens.

6. Showdown Souljade
In the updates, 30 new Showdown Souljades are now available, which include:
(1) 7 Ice Souljades of melee weapon, 6 of ranged weapon an 4 of other special effect.
(2) Exclusive Souljades that enhance Tianhai, Temulch and Matari's ultimates.
(3) Defuse·Dash(Counterattack) & (Concentrate), Defuse·Combo(Counterattack) & (Concentrate).
(4) 5 Souljades that enhance ranged attack and Weaponry Chest Boon.

II. Feria Shen's new skill [Gunplay: Aim] and ultimate [Mech Mayhem: Co-pilot] are now available

[Gunplay: Aim]
Leap backward and raise the gun, aim and shoot with high damage and mark enemies with [Silence] for 3 sec.
Move the crosshair while using this skill to adjust the leap direction.

[Mech Mayhem: Co-pilot]
Set a beacon at the target point and knock nearby enemies airborne.
Feria and allies can pilot [Bronze Mech] by interacting with the beacon.
Compared to ultimate [Mech Mayhem], the [Bronze Mech] summoned by beacon has lower Health. When shooting enemies, it deals higher damage and builds Energy faster (but its own Energy recovery speed is slower).

III. Adjustments to Holoroth Map

(1) Added two more entrances with direct access to the inner hall at the front of the right wing.

II. Tarka Ji
1. Increased the Energy cost of the second-stage dodge (elbow strike) from 67% to 83% of the normal dodge's energy cost when Tarka Ji casts his ultimate [Blackout] and all of his talents.
2. Adjusted the attack range of the 2nd stage dodge (elbow strike) under his ultimates. Taka Ji can no longer hit enemies on the ground in flat terrain.
//Dev Note: Tarka Ji's elbow strike, which has a low Energy cost, gives him the upper hand in a 1v1 battle. Enemies knocked down have no countermeasures against Taka Ji's elbow strike. Therefore, we adjusted the energy cost and attack range of Tarka Ji's elbow strike so his enemies could counter him.

Weapon Adjustments
I. General Adjustments for Ranged Weapons
Optimized the sound effects of Musket and Pistol.

II. Staff
1. Adjusted the Focus of the second strike of [Heaven Uproar] to Golden.

2. Slightly put off the time point to enable clashing after using [Soulbreak].
3. Increased the airborne Vertical Strike Damage Multiplier from 1.56+0.15 to 1.73+0.17.
//Dev Note: Compared with other weapons, Dagger possesses more combat options. Thus we've made this adjustment for other weapons to make it less difficult to confront Dagger, and increased the airborne Vertical Strike Damage for the Dagger.

In-game Adjustments
I. Adjustments to the rules for calculating scores:
1. Added the influence of the number of eliminating opponents on the score settlement in The Herald's Trial mode. Eliminating opponents weigh higher on the score settlement gradually as you improve your rank, while the other combat actions will gradually weigh lower. (Slight effect on players ranking Solar and Empyrean. Great effect on players ranking Astral and Asura)
//Dev Note: In the Clash League, we tried to use the number of eliminating opponents (Elimination: Cairn of the enemy you defeated runs out of Health.) instead of other combat actions as the basis for calculating scores to prevent players from win-trading and it worked well.

Hero Adjustments

I. Kurumi
The Damage Reduction provided when cutting the link of skill [Binding Prayer: Guard] has been adjusted from "99% for 2.5 sec" to "90% for 4 sec".

II. Valda Cui
Adjustments to [Nether Nightmare]'s oceanic energy: now the oceanic energy will uplift Valda Cui and offer a chance of water spear attack whether it hits an enemy or not. Besides, the water spear can also interrupt [Blackout].
//Dev Note: In combat, once Valda Cui's ultimate misses its target, players will suffer a great loss because of the Rage consumption rule of her V1 and skill characteristics. So we improved the lower limit of the ultimate's effect.

III. Feria Shen
1. Optimized Bronze Mech's running and jumping actions, as well as Feria Shen's performance while piloting Bronze Mech.
2. Optimized [Gunplay: Scattershot]'s action and hit feel.
3. Adjusted the display of Bronze Mech's durability to make it visible to teammates.
4. Increased the effective radius of damage reduction from 7m to 15m when enabling [Overclock] under the ultimate [Mech Mayhem: Restore].
//Dev Note: Here's a notice for controller players, when piloting the Bronze Mech, operation mode of the controller will be changed into Ranged Weapon mode.

2. Increase the instant recovery value after triggering the Sedate Soul in [Saving Grace: Aegis] from "300 per sec" to "500 per sec".

Weapon Adjustments

I. Dual Blades
Appropriately increase the duration of the Focus when charging Horizontal Strike on spot, and the Focus status ends when you move.

II. Staff
Slightly decrease the startup frames of Counterstrike.

Souljade Adjustments

I. Spring Festival Souljades
Special Souljades for Spring Festival, [Spring Festival·Firework] and [Spring Festival·Firecracker] are added in Quick Match, Shadow Surge, Through the Fire, Omni's Nightmare and BOT Mode.

Combat Adjustments

I. Adjustments to Calculation of Damage Reduction:
Now according to different sources, damage reductions are divided into [Item Damage Reduction], [Ultimate Skill Damage Reduction], [Talent Skill Damage Reduction] and [Weapon Damage Reduction]. Reductions from the same sources are added up with an upper limit of 90%, while those from different sources are multiplied. After the updates, the final damage reduction by multiplying will be slightly reduced. But damage reduction of a single kind remains unchanged.
For example: when Justina Gu casts [Ice Core], she has 70% [Talent Skill Damage Reduction] during the preparation stage. If her teammate Yueshan casts Formation Roar as Almighty General, all team members will get the [Immovable] effect that grants 35% [Talent Skill Damage Reduction]. Now with Justina Gu's 70% [Talent Skill Damage Reduction], her final damage reduction is 90% because the sum of the two effects exceeds the upper limit of 90%. Thus Justina Gu only takes 10% of the original damage.
If Justina Gu has the 10% [In-game Item Damage Reduction] from [Salak] simultaneously, the final damage she will take is: (1-90%) * (1-10%) = 9%.

II. Adjustments to Calculation of Damage Bonus:
Now all damage bonuses are added up. After the updates, the final damage bonus by multiplying is slightly reduced. But damage bonus of a single kind remains unchanged.
For example: in Showdown, players will get 50% damage bonus after triggering [Desperation]'s 30% and [Outrage]'s 20% at the same time.

Showdown Adjustments

I. Combat Adjustments
Reduced the performance of [Omnius·Hell Scorch] and [Omnius·Rock]'s strikes when blocking ranged attacks.

II. Stage Adjustments
1. Reorganized the yield of Showdown Souljades in Omnius boss stages. Now even though players fail to defeat the boss, they still can get part of Showdown Souljades by opening chests after defeating the Omnius in each stage.
2. Adjustments to Summon Stone in Desert Tribulations: now it can directly revive teammates in the Cairn state and teleport them to the battlefield of Stone Monster.
3. [Niter Jade] now will automatically respawn 30s after being used and become available again.

III. Attribute Adjustments
"Charged Attack Damage Bonus" and "Non-charged Attack Damage Bonus" are changed to "Apart from the original melee Charged and Non-charged attack damage bonus, it also takes effect on ranged weapons' Charged and Non-charged attack."

I. Tutorial Optimizations

3. The quest "Deal damage to 50 enemies when the Bronze Mech is in cannon mode" in the [Yin Yang Mastery] stage of Feria Shen's Cultivation has been changed to "Stomping on enemies 50 times as the Bronze Mech switching into cannon mode".
4. Added Chapter 4 of Valda Cui's Heroic Tales.

III. Justice Chamber
