4. Optimized the special effects of Hadi's Skill Mechanical Arm: Pursuit, solving issues that would occur when Hadi hit targets that were bound by Water Bombs, Frozen or being controlled by others skills.

Weapon Adjustments

I. Staff

(1) When Stanchion·Rising Cloud misses, the following Heaven Uproar's second hit will grant Blue Focus instead of Gold Focus.

Showdown Adjustments

I. Opening of Yama's Abyss Leaderboards

The number of available levels in Yama's Abyss has been increased to 45, accompanied by a new challenge: the Yama's Abyss Leaderboard, a part of the Showdown Leaderboards.
In Yama's Abyss, reaching higher levels, trying different heroes, and completing stages with greater speed will help you rise to the top of the leaderboards and earn rare titles and Hero Badge rewards.
The rules are as follows:
1. The leaderboards are separated into Solos and Trios. Getting records in different modes will be registered on the respective leaderboard.

2. We hope that each hero will shine on the leaderboards. For this reason, each hero will have their own leaderboard for Yama's Abyss.

3. After leaderboards open, completing a stage will create a record. Data from before leaderboards are opened will not be recorded.

4. Leaderboards will consider both the stage reached and the time taken, reaching higher stages will increase your rank; when there is a tie in stage reached, ranking will occur by the time taken, down to the second. If there is still a tie, then the player who created the record first will be given a higher rank.

5. After the update, the leaderboards will be settled every Wednesday at 20:00 (UTC). If any one of your heroes ranks within the top 500 at the time of settlement, you will receive a title reward. At the end of the current Showdown season, a limited-edition avatar will be awarded to you based on your best title ranking and your final ranking. After the settlement of the season's final week, the top 3 players will also receive a unique Hero Badge, with only 1 Hero Badge per player based on their highest rank.
At the same time, we will also optimize the Speedrun Leaderboard: The Speedrun Leaderboard will also be separated by Hero. We hope that this will let everyone use their favorite hero to get the appropriate glory.

II. Combat Adjustments

1. Increased the scattering angle between arrows when the Bow Evil-Ent is on Hard and above, and when it has the [Relentless Volley] Omen, to avoid multiple arrows hitting the same target, and reduced the damage value of [Relentless Volley] by a certain amount.

2: A [Ocean Yaksa] using [Swirl Crossbow] can still attack while being hit by a melee white attack.

3. After using the [Swirl Crossbow] and stowing it away, monsters will no longer switch to an unarmed state. Instead, they will revert to using the weapon that was equipped prior to the crossbow.

4. The Hammer Evil-Ent in Normal mode will no longer perform consecutive ground smashes.

5. The clash window of usable moves when attacked for [Thunderspawn] and [Cursespawn] has been removed, and the cooldown of usable moves when attacked has been increased.

6. The casting interval and probability of the Blue Focus move of the Fiery Monster in Hard mode have been slightly reduced.

7. The Fiery Monster will now proactively exit the affected area of the [Hellhole] Omen when it finds itself within it.

8. The probability of Nerusa using the dive move in the Yama's Abyss has been reduced.

9. The kneeling animation of Nauticus and Nerusa post-Aegis-break has been optimized to fix a bug that prevented certain moves from attacking them in the Aegis-broken state.

10. The invincibility status of Mountain Ghost, Fiery Monster, and Stone Monster upon spawning in the Enigma Domain and Yama's Abyss modes has been removed. The invincibility status of Thunderspawn and Cursespawn upon spawning in any mode has also been removed.

11. The damage of some moves of Omnius·Aureate has been reduced.

13. Delayed the time at which [Omnius·Beast]'s charged tail strike will hit after it flips itself over.

14. The invincibility of players upon rebirth has been altered. Now, even if a player performs an action, the invincibility will not be canceled. However, the player will be unable to deal damage during the invincibility period.

15. The difficulty level of all Boss monsters in the single-player mode has been toned down.

16. An issue causing a mismatch between the attack range of certain monster moves and their special effect range has been resolved.

17. The impact of monster attack moves on the environment (such as trees, grass, water) in PvE battles has been optimized.

18. Optimized the movement of Counterstrikecombos when using the Katana, the Nunchucks or the Staff, making it easier to hit monsters.

20. The accumulation meter for Frostbite, ThunderShock, Spirit Erosion, and Liquid Miasma has been relocated to the right side of the player information panel.

(3) Players who have previously purchased Ice Essence or Thunder Essence will be unable to purchase the same type of Element Essence again.

(4) The display of Souljades sold by the Rift Dealer has been improved. Players can now accurately view the Elemental Attributes of the Souljades.

//Devs' Note: In Showdown, certain Souljades can create potent effects when working with other specific Souljades.We have optimized the Souljade loot rules to enhance players' chances of experiencing these combo effects in Yama's Abyss.

3. Adjustments to the Dark Tide Coin Loot Rules in Yama's Abyss:

(2) In the "Capture the Spirit Well" and "Braving the Ambush" quests, monsters will no longer provide Dark Tide Coins rewards after their second respawn.
//Devs' Note: We have revised the Dark Tide Coins loot rules to address the issue of some Dark Tide Coins not being automatically collected, and the problem of a single player in a multi-player mode collecting most of the Dark Tide Coins.

4. Combat Items Adjustments

(1) The startup frames for the animation of using the Boss summoning item and the animation of Boss attacks have been reduced, and the damage to Astral Aegis caused by items has been significantly increased. Different items will also yield different buffs. The specific effects are as follows:
[Ignis Blaze]: When this item is used, it not only summons Omnius·Hell Scorch to unleash a flame attack, but also restores Rage to all team members.
[Annihilate Light]: When this item is used, the laser strike will render the enemy into a [Vulnerable] state, increasing the damage they receive from melee and ranged attacks.
[Obliterate Hammer]: When this item is used, it not only summons Omnius·Aureate to execute a hammer smash but also restores Armor to all team members.

(2) Boss summoning items can now be purchased from the Rift Dealer, while [Yushan Bladestorm] cannot be.

5. Stage Unlocking Adjustments:

In Yama's Abyss mode, when you and other teammates complete a stage that you have not unlocked, this completion record will be saved for you. Once you complete the prerequisite stage for this stage, this stage will also be marked as completed immediately.
//Devs' Note: Currently, in Yama's Abyss mode, players have varying progress statuses. We aim to ensure that players who are progressing at a slower pace can also advance when playing with their friends.

6. Portal Adjustments

(1) Improved the placement of Portals leading to the next area, ensuring that they correspond better.

Stage 6: A Hard-mode monster area may appear, and players can choose whether to enter it.
Stage 8: Curse Chests may contain [Powerful Foe] and [Lost] curses.

8. Adjustments to Omens in the Yama's Abyss:

(1) In the "Capture the SpiritWell" quest, the [Ghostly Hand], [Ice Wind], and [Frozen Earth] Omens will no longer appear.

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Banned Players List 12-7

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT - 彩华御守

Dear players,

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT is committed to creating a fair and healthy competitive environment. We have not only used new anti-cheat technologies, but also established special cheat-reporting reward activities to encourage those players who defend the fairness with us. From now on, players who make outstanding contributions to reporting cheats will get the Legendary spear skin 'Righteous Polearm' .

More details:
1. Players who successfully reported 1 time will get [Immortal Treasure] X1;

2. Players who successfully report 10 times with low misreport rate will get [Immortal Treasure] X10 (In order to ensure the efficiency of detecting, please report reasonably);

3. Players who have successfully reported for many times or made great contributions to anti-cheat will get the Legendary spear skin [Righteous Polearm] X1.

We strongly recommend that players report via in-game report system, so that we can confirm the cheat as soon as possible and record successful report times for you!

From 11.27 to 12.3, there are 5 players who have successfully reported the cheating or hacking in total and get the reward [Righteous Polearm]! We hope that more players can become the Justice Supporter on the Morus Isle in the future.

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT Update – November 30th, 2023

NARAKA: BLADEPOINT - 彩华御守

Dear players,

The servers of NARAKA: BLADEPOINT will be suspended for maintenance from November 29, 2023, at 23:00 (UTC) to November 30, 2023, at 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:

Brand New Content

I. Showdown Season 1.0: Chasm
Seasons have now been introduced in Showdown mode: After each Showdown season ends, all levels and the base Sense Level of Heroes will change. Also, the Potential progress and content will be reset. Showdown Season 1.0: Chasm will end on March 7, 2024 at 00:00 (UTC).

//Dev Notes: The idea behind switching to a season system is based on the gap that has emerged between experienced players and newer players in Showdown. Seasons will let us keep a stream of new rewards and fresh stages, while also making necessary changes to various stages and minimum/maximum sense levels. Furthermore, it will allow newer players to integrate into the Showdown community without feeling a large gap with more experienced players.

1. New Gameplay: Yama's Abyss

This is a brand new roguelike iteration of Showdown Mode. In Yama's Abyss, all players start on equal footing, taking on an unlimited number of random stages. Players can obtain a wide variety of temporary enhancements to strengthen themselves as levels get progressively more challenging.

When playing Yama's Abyss, Souljades that you have equipped will not initially appear in your Souljade Bag, but instead will randomly appear in the in-game Rift Dealer. Explore Yama's Abyss, discover various enhancements, and challenge countless random levels!

Advancing through the tiers of Yama's Abyss and increasing your rank in the Showdown Season will earn you valuable rewards, including the Regular Treasure Choice Gift and the Rank Avatar. At the end of each Showdown Season, both your rank and rewards progress will be reset.

2. New Boss: Omnius·Vortex

Water, is the source of all things, the fountain of countless changes.
Take on the ferocious beasts of Omnius and 3 new levels at the Shipwreck Expanse on the Morus Isle.

3. New Hero Introduced in the Mode: Feria Shen
Pilot her Bronze Mech and obliterate all enemies that stand in your way!

4. Potential System and Huge selection of new Showdown Souljades
There is a brand new Potential System where you can play Showdown mode to get Potential XP and Potential Points. Level up your Potential and build your Souljades to create your own play style in Showdown.

The progress of the Potential System will be reset at the start of every Showdown Season, offering a fresh battle experience with new content and challenges.

5. Fatigue system
After this update, Showdown will be available at all times and will have a new Fatigue system.
By playing a stage of Showdown, Showdown Souljades, Quench Crystals, and other items can be obtained as drops. At the same time, Fatigue will increase up to a maximum of 2,000. While below the first threshold of Fatigue, drops will be increased by 150%. Each time that Fatigue passes a threshold, in-game drops will decrease. Fatigue will reset to 0 every Wednesday at 20:00 (UTC).
(Showdown Scroll items will expire after the update, and there will be no way to use or acquire them again)

6. Showdown Store Updates
Newly added Legendary Weapon Skins [Calamity Forge·Blade], [Auger], etc. and Enhancement Items.

II. Advanced Showdown Pass - Chasm Undertow
Event Time: November 30, 2023 Update to March 6, 2024 at 23:00 (UTC).

Showdown Pass XP can only be obtained through [Showdown] modes and quests.
Upgrade your Showdown Pass to claim plentiful rewards.
Tons of Showdown Seals, Rebirth Beads, Enhancement Materials, and other rewards in the Showdown Pass are claimable; Unlock the Legendary Weapon Skin [Chasm Vortex·Surging], Martial Skill Cosmetic [Severing Gust·Plum], [Fang Severing Slash·Ocher] and bottomless exclusive rewards!

III. Time-limited Event: Secret of the Shipwreck
Event Time: From after the update on Nov 30, 2023 to Dec 13, 2023 at 20:00 (UTC).

Event Rules: Players can get Aqua Pearls by completing quests during the event. Aqua Pearls can be redeemed for great event rewards.

Complete each day's Daily Quests to receive bonus rewards.
There are 5 groups of Challenge Quests, each available in turn at different times. Complete quests to claim plentiful rewards.

Hero Adjustments

Optimized the special effects of the third Horizontal and Vertical Strikes of the [Chain Scythe].

II. Hadi

Enabled the mechanism for Hadi to counter while in flight.
Optimized the hit performance of the Charged Attack during flight.
Optimized the sound effect during flight.
Optimized the damage calculation mechanism that exits flight status upon accumulating certain damage during flight. Now, the damage dealt by Armor Pierce is properly included, while the damage dealt by Shadow Corruption is not included.

//Dev Notes: Hadi has a unique flight mechanism, adding new experiences and challenges to the battlefield. We'll continue to monitor the players' evolving control and strength performances. Hadi can now counter while in flight, with the same effect as his 3rd stage of charged attack. We hope these adjustments will introduce more tactics and variations in battles between Hadi and other heroes.

Souljade Adjustments

I. General Souljades
Newly added Souljade (Consumable) [Vajra's Grip]: When being Countered, restore some Health and your weapon will not drop.

In-game Adjustments

I. Feature Optimizations

Now, using emotes and gestures immediately can interrupt an ongoing emote or gesture.
Optimized the perspective view selection mechanism when the spectator is the last team member eliminated and all their teammates are in the Remains.
Optimized the transition mechanism between the hero selection screen, spawn point selection screen, and map screen during the preparation phase. You can now quickly switch to the corresponding screen by pressing the respective keys on each above-mentioned screen.

II. Bot Mode Adjustments

Hard difficulty AIs have received differentiated playstyles, AIs with different playstyles will behave differently in combat.

III. Controller Adjustments
During the preparation phase, press L1 + Touchpad (PS) / LB + View Button (XBOX) to view hero skill descriptions in the hero selection screen.

Out-game Adjustments

I. Added Scoring System in Casual Mode

Added scores to Shadow Surge, Capture the Spirit Well, The Bloodbath, and Bloodsport modes. The scoring system is added only to reflect your proficiency in these modes.
The initial score is 1,000, with each 500-point increment moving up a tier, up to a maximum of 9 tiers.
Scores will be reset proportionally at the season update.

II. Personal Information

Your scoring stats are now included in the Casual Mode.
Showdown Mode will now have Yama's Abyss Rank information. Starting from Showdown Season 1.0, related stats will be collected in accordance with the new Showdown Season format. Previous stats will temporarily not be visible.

VI. Fairyland Penglai

Showdown Adjustments

I. Combat Adjustments

Shortened the rebirth and revival time in all Showdown gameplay.
Now, monsters with Astral Aegis won't roll to get up after being downed.
Optimized some combat effects.

II. Souljade Adjustments
1. Removed the Rage recovery effect from additional hits of Souljades, such as [Stormstride Sword], [Thunder Sword], and [Ice Bomb], while increasing the damage multipliers in certain strikes. Specific adjustments are as follows:

[Draco Stride]: Increased the damage multiplier of the wave from 0.6 to 0.72;
[Icefall]: Increased the damage multiplier of the icicle from 0.75 to 1.0;
[Stormstride]: Increased the damage multiplier of the lightning strike from 1.5 to 1.6;
[Stormstride Sword]: Increased the damage multiplier of Thunderbolt from 0.25 to 0.27;
[Thunder Sword]: Increased the damage multiplier of Thunderbolt from 0.2 to 0.24;
[Frost Cannon]: Increased the damage multiplier of Frost Wind from 0.11*6 to 0.13*6;
[Ice Bomb] Increased the damage multiplier of Frost Wind from 0.08*5 to 0.1*5;
[Thunder Cannon]: Increased the damage multiplier of the electric sparks from 0.4 to 0.5;
[Thunder Shot]: Increased the damage multiplier of Thunder from 0.17*2 to 0.21*2.

//Dev Notes: With the new Souljades and Potential System, hits beyond weapon moves provided excessive Rage. Therefore, in the new version, we have removed Rage recovery effects from these hits. To maintain the strength of relevant Souljades, we have increased their damage multipliers.

2. [Thunderpull]
Reduced the speed at which damage dealt increases Thundershock for oneself at low Thunder-wielding levels.

3. [Jabbing·Ice-wielding]
Increased the Damage Multiplier from 4.29 to 5.21.

4. [Defuse·Solve (Counterattack)], [Defuse·Combo (Counterattack)], and [Defuse·Dash (Counterattack)]
The method of filling the Defuse slot changed from "dealing damage with uncharged attacks" to "dealing damage with melee attacks or triggering the Defuse".

III. Elemental Effect Adjustments

Removed the Rage recovery effect from element-triggered hits.
Reduced the accumulation speed of elemental effects by 48%.

//Dev Notes: The Potentials in the new season will bring in a lot of gameplay and enhancements around elemental effects. Therefore, we have lowered the frequency of triggering elemental effects, hoping that the rising elemental mechanic in current gameplay won't become the only solution in the version.

The cooldown for accumulating elemental effect points after monsters trigger elemental effects has changed from a 2-second team-shared cooldown to a 6-second individual cooldown.

//Dev Notes: In the previous version, triggering an elemental effect on a monster paused the entire team's elemental accumulation on that monster for 2 seconds. In the new version, only the player who triggers the elemental effect will pause their own elemental accumulation on the monster. This pause will no longer be affected by your teammates, therefore allowing more control over your triggering time.

IV. Hero Adjustments
1. Viper Ning

The Damage Multiplier of skill [Yushan Strike: Showdown] has increased from 1 to 9, with Aegis-break ability increased from 2,200 to 3,150.
The Aegis-break ability of Ultimate [Moonbane Control: Showdown] has increased from 9,500 to 11,000.

2. Tarka Ji

The Damage Multiplier of the fireball in the skill [Flame Force: Showdown] has increased from 4 to 5, with Aegis-break ability increased from 400 to 500.
The Rage consumption ratio of a single fireball in Ultimate [Fire Frenzy: Showdown] has reduced from 8% to 6.5%.

3. Valda Cui

The Aegis-break ability of the Horizontal Strike water spear in Ultimate [Rising Tide: Showdown] has increased from 200 to 1,200, with the Damage Multiplier of the Vertical Strike water spear increased from 3 to 5.

4. Kurumi

Increased Kurumi's Rage limit to align with other heroes.
Aegis-break Martial Skill [Severing Gust] can now be unleashed by using a horizontal strike after a charged strike.

5. Temulch

The total Damage Multiplier of Ultimate [Zephyr Wisp: Showdown] is increased from 1.35 to 4.2, with Aegis-break ability increased from 1,350 to 4,200.

6. Yueshan

The duration of enemy Attack reduction in skill [Scorching Dash: Showdown] has increased from 6 sec to 8 sec.

7. Tianhai

Skill [Divine Bell: Showdown] grants 50% damage reduction to self for 8 sec upon release.

V. Omens Adjustments

Monsters with [Impassable] Omen can now use Blue Focus moves more frequently and will lose more Astral Aegis when hit by a counter.
Adjustments to Frostbite accumulation caused by some Frostbite Omens:

[Ice Blast]: Frostbite accumulation for each explosion has increased from 100 to 320;
[Frozen Earth]: Frostbite accumulation per sec has increased from 200 to 300;

VI. Anima Ring Collections
The selection of Anima Rings of different levels in Yama's Abyss unlocks corresponding Anima Ring Collections. As the Anima Ring Collections level increases, various enhancement attributes will be unlocked, effective only in the Yama's Abyss mode.

VII. New Showdown Item: Rebirth Bead
While playing any Showdown Stage, if you die when your default Rebirths have been used up, you can consume a Rebirth Bead and get an extra Rebirth.

VIII. Souljade Recasting Adjustments
The chance of getting an extra attribute when recasting a Souljade will increase with each recast that has not yielded an extra attribute. A Souljade that has not reached its attribute limit is guaranteed an extra attribute after 50 recasts.

//Dev Notes: Enhancement of Souljades is an important part of Showdown Mode. To deal with cases where it is difficult to acquire rare attributes, we will continue to carry out optimizations in future updates.

IX. Sense Level Adjustments
The minimum recommended Sense Level and the minimum Sense Level of dropped Souljades have increased to 450. The maximum Sense Level for a single Season has been increased to 680.

X. Other Changes

Now, you must clear specific levels before you can unlock and obtain the corresponding Souljades through Souljade conversion and the new Souljade Choice Gifts. Previous Souljade Choice Gifts are not subject to this change.
Showdown quests have been revamped. The new Showdown Quest Handbook includes weekly quests, weekly doom rewards, and season quests. Complete the corresponding quests to earn Showdown Pass XP, Quench Crystals, and Showdown Souljades.
Stage progress is now displayed on the map for gameplay selection in Showdown.

Settings

I. Video Playback
DirectX 12 is supported.

II. Brightness
Added [Min Brightness] and [Max Brightness] adjustments when HDR Display is enabled.

Client Optimization

Increased runtime resource loading speed by 30-50%, significantly reducing game stutter with hardware such as mechanical hard drives due to slow initial resource loading.
Further optimized multi-threading rendering performance in DirectX 12, increasing DirectX 12 rendering frame rate by 5-10%.
Xbox File Size Reduced
Improved data distribution and compression methods, reduced data discrepancies, and reduced the overall amount of data in update files.

Currently applies to all Xbox Series and all Xbox Ones. This will apply to Microsoft PCs after the next update.

Bug Fixes

Hero-related Bugs

Fixed an issue where players hit by Zai's [Chain Link: Suppress] move were unable to pre-input dodge commands.
Fixed an issue with Zai's skills where the icon for burning damage source was incorrect.
Added content to the skill description of Takeda's [Mythic Grab] regarding the determination of the downed state. The skill effects remain unchanged.
Fixed an issue where, during Takeda's [Demonic Aid], the hit target was unable to dodge subsequent weapon horizontal strikes in certain situations.

II. Other Bug Fixes

NetEase and 24 Entertainment have worked hard to ensure that this game is as close as possible to what you want it to be.

This past year, we've added new heroes and weapons to the game; created 3D lobbies so players can interact with each other; added Showdown bosses for our most skilled combatants. We opened up our game to a whole new audience through the launch of free-to-play and new platform. Plus we delivered on past promises by bringing amazing collaborations such as NieR to NARAKA. Together these changes have made a combat experience that's ever-evolving—and dedicated solely to you: our player!

If you love this game and want to show your support for the dedication of its developers, please nominate NARAKA: BLADEPOINT for Labor of Love award!
