“Grand Mayhem” will be available from Feb. 15 to Mar. 7, 2021. As time flies by, we are back again with a new patch!
We have made a significant update for the Mayhem Mode. Our players’ enthusiasm for this mode every time it was open has kept driving us to do more updates.
In this patch. 10 new heroes have been added to Mayhem, and buffs offered by Creeps have become more Mayhem-styled. We are trying hard to make it better and more interesting by making these changes,
Enjoy the new Mayhem Mode! Mayhem Mode will be available on 02/20/2021 (Server Time) across all servers!

(This only takes effect once on the same target.) Tap: Deals Magic Damage in a designated area in the starfield.

Use → to indicate the changes.
Use (↑) (↓) (~) to indicate strengthening, nerfing, and adjustments.
Barats (↑)
Based on our research and analysis, we decided to nerf their damage when they were equipped with defensive builds. We have also increased their defense attributes to make them more a Tank than a Fighter. As compensation for damage output, we enhanced their damage when they were equipped with DPS builds.
Attributes(↑):
Base Physical Defense: 12 → 20
Physical Defense Growth: 3.13 → 3.6
Passive(~):
Total HP Bonus for enhanced Basic Attacks: 4% → 2%
Physical Attack Bonus for enhanced Basic Attacks: 120% → 140%
Physical Defense provided by each stack: 1-4 → 2-5
Skill 1(~):
Total HP Bonus for the initial Damage dealt: 8% → 6%
Physical Attack Bonus for subsequent Damage: 170% → 200%
Granger
As a Marksman, Granger only dealt low damage with Basic Attacks, so we increased his Base Basic Attack Damage, hoping that he could use it to achieve higher damage output and to keep him strong enough in the early to mid game.
Passive(↑):
Basic Attack Damage: 20 +110% Total Physical Attack → 50 + 110% Total Physical Attack
Carmilla
Her sustainability in the early and late game has been increased.
Skill 1(↑):
Base HP Regen: 50-150 → 75-150
Magic Power Bonus: 25% → 35%
