Notice about Chapter 2 Aincrad 51F,Introducing Full Burst Skills!

Sword Art Online: Integral Factor - y_nogami

Full Burst Skill added!

What is a Full Burst Skill?

These are skills where you enter the Full Burst state for a period of time after unleashing an attack and become temporarily invulnerable, like a Burst Skill.
By entering the Full Burst state, you can immediately use a Full Burst Skill or a Burst Skill (Limit Break +10) regardless of activation requirements.
You can also use it an additional number of times by equipping Full Burst Skill Ability equipment pieces.

The following are Full Burst-Associated Skills that acquire additional effects and can be used while in the Full Burst state.
Full Burst-Associated Skills are Full Burst Skills and Limit Break +10 Burst Skills.

Activating a Full Burst Skill

Like Burst Skills, using Skill Records in a specific order will fulfill the Burst activation requirements.
You will enter the Full Burst state after the skill's Burst activates.
Fulfilling the activation requirements will cause the skill icon to glow magenta.

Using skills while in the Full Burst state

An equipped Full Burst-Associated Skill can be used once immediately regardless of activation requirements. (SP will not be consumed.)
Additional Full Burst-Associated Skills can then be used according to the number of Full Burst Ability pieces equipped.
The same Skill Record cannot be used more than once during these additional Full Burst Ability equipment usages.
After the Full Burst state ends, there will be 120 seconds of cooldown time until the Full Burst state can be activated again by fulfilling the activation requirements.
* Full Burst Skills can be used during this cooldown time, but the Full Burst state will not be entered.
You can check how much time is left in the Full Burst state and the cooldown period using the Time Limit Gauge at the bottom of the screen.

Limit Breaking Full Burst Skills

Limit Breaking a Full Burst Skill to +10 will remove the final activation requirement.
Example:
Regular Full Burst Skill: Fire → Fire → Slash → Wind
Limit Break +10 Full Burst Skill: Fire → Fire → Slash

Full Burst Ability

Full Burst Skill abilities are known as Full Burst Abilities.
By equipping these abilities to an ability slot, you can increase the number of Full Burst-Associated Skill usages while in the Full Burst state by one time per piece.
Effects while in the Full Burst state change depending on the Burst type.
* Stock: Using a Full Burst-Associated Skill resets the time remaining, and the Full Burst state time is extended with each additional piece of equipment.
* Chain: The damage multiplier of Full Burst-Associated Skills used while in the Full Burst state increases with each additional piece of equipment.

The maximum number of uses while in this additional Full Burst state is equal to the number of Sword Skill or Ability Full Burst / Limit Break +10 Burst Skill Records equipped within the same set, whichever is fewer.
Example:
4 Sword Skills equipped, 4 Abilities equipped: 4 activations possible
3 Sword Skills equipped, 4 Abilities equipped: 3 activations possible
3 Sword Skills equipped, 2 Abilities equipped: 2 activations possible

The Burst type and the number of additional usages while in the Full Burst state will be displayed on the Time Limit Gauge at the bottom of the screen.
Please note that equipping something to an EX Ability slot will not provide any effects relating to Full Burst.

Exiting the Full Burst state

The Full Burst state is primarily exited in the following ways.
* The remaining time in the Full Burst state runs out.
* All Full Burst-Associated Skill uses are exhausted.
* The area changes.
* A Quick Change is performed.
* The Menu Screen is displayed.
* Your character is defeated.

Important

If a Full Burst Skill is used during a Switch, it will have its regular skill effect.
Only regular Bursts will activate during the cooldown time following the end of the Full Burst state.
Skill Records aside from Full Burst-Associated Skills can still be used even when in the Full Burst state.

The Assault Team was at their wits' end in the face of the new Runaway Floor, the 51st. The 51st floor is known for the Pit, a city of criminals that left traumatic scars on the Assault Team after their battles with wicked NPCs there in the past. What's worse, orange players who avoided prosecution have now gathered in the Pit from across the floors and grown merciless. However, in order to make it into the labyrinth, the Assault Team has no choice but to reconquer its streets that change so dizzyingly that some call them "auto-generated," and so they decide to take emergency measures. Meanwhile, Vela's plans bring Leafa back together with Notte. While the interaction is awkward, they are able to connect once more. Yet Vela's final moments continue to grow closer by the moment...

2 NEW GUNS, 2 NEW ABILITIES and NEW MAP

Paint Warfare - bananadev

Hey all, this is a super massive update I put together over the past week as a thank you to you guys for sticking around through the lack of updates in my exam.

This update was released in two parts (but I'm writing this announcement now) so you may have already noticed some of the changes!

MAPS

City Ruins Map

Introducing a new Point Capture map!

Fight building to building on the most vertical map yet! Its based on the apocalyptic decaying ruins of a metropolis.

Map improvements

Improved all of the existing maps with some new stunning vegetation, flowers and bushes :)

WEAPONS

Flare Gun

Introducing the flare gun, a very powerful secondary explosive gun

It has a slightly smaller blast radius than the launcher, but sets enemies on fire and has a faster fire rate
It's also useful for grenade jumping! Shoot at your feet to get launched up, or jump and shoot at a wall to get launched sideways.

Black Hole Gun

The black hole gun is also an explosive gun, but works pretty differently to the other explosives in the game
Left click to fire a black hole, and right click after you've thrown it to freeze it wherever it is
From there it will suck in and trap enemies. It can be escaped by running if you're not too close or grapple/dash
After 5 seconds it explodes killing everyone in its radius, but be careful as it works on you too!
Useful for protecting flags, bases or areas

Gun Reworks

Banana Gun

You can now right click to rapid fire the banana gun (it's a lot less accurate at long range though

Freeze Gun

Fixed a bug that caused the recoil to go crazy and make it un usable

Burst

No more camera shake/recoil on this gun either

Mine launcher

Now deals 2X more damage

ABILITIES

Voodoo Doll

This is an always active ability. When you are damaged, your opponent takes 22% of the damage they deal to you, which lends you the advantage in every gun fight :)

Ammo Kit

This ability works super similarly to the med-kit in that it's excellent in both free for all and team modes (and in fact you can equip both the med kit and ammo kit!).

All allied players within its radius are granted a massive 1.5X fire rate and reload speed boost

NEW RANKING

You'll now rank faster because only a small proportion of players get to the final ranks and experience everything the game has to offer.
There's now 20 ranks instead of 15 (with less XP per rank). - Your rank may change/increase this update based on the total amount of XP you have.

Other

New winter menu and music
New directional walk animations
Improved Russian, Spanish and Portuguese translations significantly

Bugs and polish

Strengthened the anti cheat measures
Coop minigame renamed to co-op for clarity
Added a tutorial for buying/equipping abilities
Fixed a bug where every ability was unlocked in the respawning armoury
The water gun/pressure washer stream now always faces forward
Fixed a bug with the smoke/bubble grenade where throwing it at your feet midair would cause it to explode on your feet
Fixed a bug with the costume (DLC) equipping in the armoury where it would get reset each time you loaded into the menu
Fixed a bug that caused the fire and freeze gun effects to not be applied
The maps shown in the map votes will now show up slightly more evenly

Holiday Coins Sale

Finally...one last note

To celebrate the holiday season, until next update I've dropped the prices of all coins by 60%, which means (if you really wanted to) you could unlock every weapon skin in the game right now for $6.40 ;)

As always, enjoy the update & head on over to our discord server!

Word from the developer

Hello everyone!

This day has finally come, and I'm beyond excited that we can finally give you the game we've been working hard on for the past few years.

We poured our hearts and souls into Wizordum, and we hope you will enjoy the game as much as we enjoy making it!

This is only 1/3 of the game content-wise, so we will constantly look for feedback as we move forward to the v1.0 release. With your help, we can shape the best game we can all possibly have! If you have any feedback, positive or negative, please share it with us. Both are very important to make a better game.
