The details for this update are as follows:

The details for this update are as follows:

I. New Hero: Zai


Zai's life is defined by pain and struggle. After a prophecy warned she would bring about great calamity, her parents sold her to human traffickers.

She spent years in their hands before escaping to the Annica, an elite clan of assassins who recognized her potential for darkness and violence.

They trained her to be the ultimate killing machine, and though she was denied the vengeance she initially wanted, she's found the next best thing: destroying everything good and pure in the world.
The third skill and ultimate are not yet available in this version. Once available, you can complete heroes' Cultivation Quests to unlock them. If you've completed the required Cultivation Quests before upcoming updates, the skill and ultimate will be unlocked automatically.

II: New Feature: Spirit Well
Starting now, multiple Spirit Wells will spawn at the 240-second and 500-second marks in The Herald's Trial and BOT Mode. When you occupy one of them, you will receive an item that upgrades your main weapon or armor (excluding air-dropped weapons) to Epic quality.

III: New Quest: Valiant Challenge
In Quick Match, The Herald's Trial, and BOT Mode, a new Valiant Challenge Quest Scroll has been introduced. Accepting the quest initiates the Valiant Challenge, which reveals the player's location to all non-friendly players on the map and periodically scans for non-friendly players within a specific range. If the challenger survives within the designated time, they will be rewarded with a large number of Dark Tide Coins.

When a player accepts the Valiant Challenge quest, they become the challenger, and non-friendly players become opponents. Opponents can track the challenger on the map, and defeating the challenger yields considerable rewards. Even assisting in the defeat will earn some Dark Tide Coins.

IV. New Enigma Peak Levels in Showdown
In Showdown, when your sense level reaches 450, you can challenge the new Enigma Peak Levels, where the monsters have strengthened Health and Attack, and some of the Bosses' moves have changed.
In the Enigma Peak, Showdown Souljades drop by various kinds. If you defeat a certain number of Bosses in a single match, you can also receive rewards like Legendary Souljade Choice Gift, Thunder Essence, exclusive Hero Badge, Quench Crystal and so on.

V: Map Updates
1. Optimized and iterated the spawn point of Inn of the Dunes, and enhanced resource allocation.

VI. Limited-time Event: Unruly Blaze
Event Time: From June 1 Update to June 14, 2023 at 20:00 (UTC)

Event Rules:

1. Complete daily quests to earn Ghoulish Lanterns and Soul Orders. Soul Orders can be redeemed for exclusive event rewards.
   
2. Ghoulish Lanterns are used to refresh Underworld Register for random quests. Complete the quests to earn Reckoning Treasures and more!
   
3. All players share the same Underworld Registers Quests and once you've completed one, it will not appear again.

I. Justina Gu
Adjustments have been made to the Rage consumption of [Arctic Wraith] and [Arctic Wraith: Blizzard] as follows:

1. Activating the Ultimate will consume 40% Rage, and the remaining Rage will not gradually deplete over time. The duration of the Ultimate remains at 30 seconds.
   
2. Using [Shadowswipe] and [Shadowswipe: Blizzard] will consume Rage: 20%/30% in Solo and Duos, and 15%/30% in Trios.
   
3. If [Shadowswipe] hits 2 enemies at the same time, the next [Shadowswipe] will not consume Rage.
   
4. [Shadowswipe] and [Shadowswipe: Blizzard] will now have a 70% damage reduction effect.

//Dev Notes: The benefits that Justina gains after activating her Ultimate now solely depend on the player's performance with Shadowswipe. In the current environment, we believe that the previous Rage consumption was somewhat high, especially in Solos. After the adjustment, Shadowswipe will now consume Rage, thus limiting its synergy with the Souljade [Soul Release]. However, it gains more flexible endurance through [Rebirth Blossom Spirit].

II. Valda Cui

1. The duration of the [Nether Nightmare: Smite] Ultimate has been increased from 16 to 20 seconds, and the Protective Qi has been raised from 2000 to 2200.
   
2. The startup frames of the water spear in [Nether Nightmare: Smite] have been significantly reduced to optimize the throwing experience. The number of times the water spear can be thrown has been adjusted from 4 to 3. Immune time after being freed from the [Dragon's Coil] is increased to 4 sec.

//Dev Notes: Currently, Valda’s V2 Ultimate has a short duration after activation, making it difficult to exert its intended pressure. The use count and hit experience of the water spear also fall short of expectations. Therefore, we have extended the duration of the V2 Ultimate and optimized the throwing experience of the water spear to make it easier to hit enemies.

III. Yueshan

1. [Rampage: Heaven's Descent] has been changed to [Rampage: Command]. This ability now attacks surrounding enemies and grants substantial health recovery, with a CD of 16 seconds.
   
2. The duration of the recovery frames for [Dragontail] has been slightly shortened.

//Dev Notes: Currently, Yueshan's V2 has limited utility and lacks effective recovery capabilities during combat. Therefore, we have made adjustments to V2’s skills and effects to provide Yueshan with a means of health recovery.

IV. Viper Ning
The Recovery reduction effect of [Yushan Enigma: Enfeeble] now lasts for 7 seconds, down from 15, and its CD has been increased from 20 to 22 seconds.

//Dev Notes: Viper Ning's F3 currently triggers opponents to confront and seek healing opportunities after being hit. However, the 15-second healing ban significantly limits this strategy. Therefore, we have reduced the duration of the healing ban and will closely monitor its performance.

V. Akos Hu

1. The duration of the [Feral Frenzy] and [Feral Frenzy: Grab] Ultimates has been adjusted to 26 seconds in Solos, while it remains 35 seconds in Duos and Trios.
   
2. The duration of the recovery frames for the airborne vertical strikes performed during the tiger leap state has been increased.
   
3. The airborne horizontal strikes performed during the tiger leap state will no longer stagger targets under the effect of Ziping Yin's [Inspiration Shield].
   
4. With the Talent Skill [Roar: Terror], targets under the terror effect can now pre-input commands while in a controlled state.

//Dev Notes: Currently, Akos Hu can gain an advantage by utilizing a pounce attack after activating his Ultimate. While preserving the experience of his enhanced burst ability, we have adjusted the duration of Akos Hu’s abilities in Solos to balance his combat effectiveness against other heroes.
[Roar: Terror] is intended to primarily serve as a tool for focus firing in team modes, but currently, it also provides a strong advantage in initiating combat in Solos. Allowing pre-input commands while under the terror effect will enable players to react promptly once the terror effect ends.

VI. Tarka Ji

1. The default duration for all of Tarka Ji's Ultimate talents will vary depending on the different game modes. [Blackout] and [Blackout: Vulcan] now last 24 seconds in Solos, while [Blackout: Frenzy] lasts for 20 seconds. The default durations of all Ultimate Talents in Duos and Trios remain unchanged.

//Dev Notes: Currently, Tarka Ji's exceptional durability, extended invincibility frames, and stamina make him excel in terms of survival, mobility, and damage output, surpassing most other heroes. Therefore, while preserving his core gameplay, we have adjusted the duration of Tarka Ji’s Ultimates across different modes and talents. This is to maintain a balanced combat pace and ensure fair matchups with other heroes.

The damage multiplier of [Heartstopper Kick] has also been adjusted from 5.02 to 1.88, and the Aegis-break damage multiplier has been adjusted from 1 to 7.

//Dev Notes: The Spear’s unique move. [Nezha's Might] is rarely used in [Showdown] due to its long duration. Therefore, we hope to retain the weapon's distinctiveness while enhancing its versatility and maneuverability to offset the disadvantage of the move's lengthy duration. We have also shifted some of its damage to break Astral Aegis, in order to enhance its effectiveness when fighting with the Boss protected by Aegis.

The next episode of Behind the Blade is in May!

Stay tuned for more details, Forerunners!

Dear players,

The servers of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT will be suspended for maintenance from 04/26/2022 23:00 (UTC) to 04/27/2022 03:00 (UTC). We suggest you log out in advance and enter the game again after the maintenance.

The details for this update are as follows:



I. New Boss: Omnius·Aureate
Challenge the Aureate form of Omnius in the Celestra of the Morus Isle, there are new levels and new stories await!

More than 10 new "Thunder Omens" have been added in the Hard and Nightmare modes.

II. New Hero: Yueshan
Overcome challenges in Showdown as the almighty general, with a new "Counter" skill. Counterstrike combo will be enhanced when equipped with an exclusive Souljade.

III. New Feature: Souljade Recast
Epic and Legendary Showdown Souljades can be recast by consuming another Showdown Souljade of the same quality. After recasting, the attributes of the new Souljade will be randomly selected and combined from the consumed ones, and the values will be random (affected by the original attribute). After recasting, you can choose to keep the original attributes or accept the new ones generated by the recast.

If the number of attributes in the newly created Souljade is less than 4, there is a chance to get an extra attribute and possibly yield an additional powerful rare attribute. Please refer to Narakapedia - Showdown - Buffs - Rare Attribute for further details.

//Dev Note: The attributes of the Showdown Souljades are a crucial part of the development of the Showdown. However, obtaining the desired attributes (and ideal values) through specific combinations of Souljdes has been overly random and difficult. Therefore, we have introduced the recast system to help players develop attributes in a more purposeful and enjoyable way.

IV. Huge selection of new Showdown Souljades
The new version offers over 30 new Showdown Souljades to collect and enrich your game.
New elemental attribute [Thunder-wielding]: The Thunder strikes of Omens or monsters can accumulate a 'ThunderShock'. When it reaches its maximum, it will trigger a Divine Thunder that can cause electric shock and stagger effects.

When equipped with a Thunder-wielding Souljade, ThunderShock accumulates at a slower rate and can trigger Divine Strikes to attack monsters.

V. Opening Hours
After this update, the Showdown will be open continuously from April 27th to May 7th (with no changes to daily opening hours). The weekend-only schedule will resume after May 7th.

I. Limited-time Event: Cultivation Master

Thanks to all for supporting NARAKA: BLADEPOINT and we value your feedback so much. The new season is coming, welcome to explore!

I. Akos Hu

1. Akos Hu is now immune to hit damage during the preparation stage of [Roar] before the shock takes effect. (Originally Akos Hu would get a 70% damage reduction.)
   
2. Reduced [Roar: Blast]'s CD from 28 sec to 22 sec.
   
3. Increased [Roar: Terror]'s CD from 20 sec to 25 sec. Slightly put off the time when Akos Hu can interrupt the shockwave and narrowed [Roar: Terror]'s effective range.
   
4. During the ultimates [Feral Frenzy] and [Feral Frenzy: Grab], Akos Hu will get a 30% damage reduction during Tiger Leap and a 70% reduction while launching Pounce Strikes.
   
5. Optimized the issue where [Feral Frenzy]'s tiger strikes would be blocked by low barriers.
   
6. The chain binding effect of [Feral Frenzy: Lockdown] will no longer restrict players' interaction with teleport mechanisms.

II. Valda Cui

1. Greatly reduced the startup frames of [Haze: Array]'s Tide Traps, changed the Skill's Focus to Golden, and adjusted its CD to 25 sec.
   
2. [Nether Nightmare: Smite] now has the following new effects:
   
   • Knocks back enemies and protects herself with Water Energy that lasts for 16 sec, during which she can launch water spear attacks repeatedly.
     
   • Tap the Skill button to throw water spears with a binding effect to trap enemies with [Dragon's Coil] at a low height for 2 sec.
     
   • Hold the Skill button to aim.
     
   • Enemies hit by water spears will be inflicted with the [Soaked] effect. Bound enemies will get off the control after being attacked and get immune to [Dragon's Coil] for 3 sec.
     
   • Enemies with Ultimate Focus can't be bound.
     
   • [Soaked]: Decreases enemies' Attack by 5% for 10 sec, and immediately triggers all remaining [Burn] damage (Maximum 400).
3. After being bound by the Tide Traps of [Haze] and all its derived Skills, enemies will get immune to Bind for 2.5 sec.
   
   • //Dev Notes: Valda Cui's [Haze: Array] was hard to play a part in combats for various reasons. Therefore, we have lowered its threshold to ensure it can produce stable effects. So, we have redesigned [Nether Nightmare: Smite] to make Valda Cui's combat skills more flexible.
4. The protection of [Nether Nightmare] and all its derived ultimates will no longer decay over time. Now it has a fixed duration for different skills:
   
   • The protection of [Nether Nightmare] can last for 15 sec at most;
     
   • The protection of [Nether Nightmare: Bind] can last for 12 sec at most.
5. Removed Valda Cui's performance of being teleported in the air during [Nether Nightmare] and [Nether Nightmare: Bind].
   
6. Reduced [Haze]'s CD from 15 sec to 18 sec.

III. Viper Ning

1. Adjusted the Defense Focus of [Yushan Enigma: Lockdown] from Blue to Golden.
   
2. Adjusted the related performance of [Yushan Enigma: Enfeeble]:
   
   • Upgraded the Focus level of [Yushan Enigma: Enfeeble], from interrupting common attacks to interrupting golden Focus strikes.
     
   • Increased the Damage Multiplier of from 1.0 to 3.5 and the hit effect has been changed to knock airborne.
     
   • Increased CD from 15 sec to 20 sec.

IV. Kurumi
Now Kurumi can cast [Sacred Circle: Rapid Healing] when attacked.

V. Tianhai
Increased the Attack Focus of Vajra skills under all Ultimate Talents. Now it can interrupt golden Focus strikes instead of common attacks.

VI. Tarka Ji
Now after Tarka Ji casts his ultimate, he will perform a 1st stage dodge after getting up from the ground.

//Dev Notes: There were inconsistencies in the rules governing Tarka Ji's actions when he got up after being knocked down, which occasionally resulted in unexpected performance. Therefore, we have standardized the rules for getting up to ensure that both Tarka Ji and his enemies can understand the moves more precisely.

I. General Adjustments

1. Slightly advanced the interruptible time point for all weapon repair.
   
2. Slightly put off the timing for dodge after switching weapons in mid-air.

II. Polesword

1. Slightly increased the recovery frames after the 1st stage charged [Torrent Flow]. Slightly shortened enemies' stagger time. Reduced the Damage Multiplier from 6.14 to 5.33.
   
2. Reduced the Damage Multiplier of the 1st stage charged [Wave Breaker] from 5.22 to 4.7.
   
3. Optimized the motion of follow-up strikes of [Torrent Flow].

III. Spear

1. Slightly adjusted the hit performance of horizontal strikes and the 2nd vertical strikes to airborne objectives, to chain the strikes of the two stages more smoothly.
   
2. Slightly shortened the startup frames of [Dragonslayer].
   
3. Increased the Damage Multiplier of [Dragonslayer] from 2.51 to 3.53; Reduced the Damage Multiplier of [Nezha] from 4.64 to 3.62.

//Dev Notes: The Spear's precise charged strikes and follow-up combos are often affected by complications in the battlefield, resulting in unstable effects. We have therefore adjusted the damage distribution of the moves to increase the efficiency of its output.
