Balance Adjustments

Aoandon

Aoandon is rather underpowered. When other Shikigami close in, we hope to let Aoandon become more useful in protecting herself and other allies during defensive scenarios by increasing the slow effect of Ability 2 and providing the Ultimate Ability: Ghost Story Lantern with a control effect upon use. Also, we increased the base damage for Ability 1: Butterfly Shadow to give Aoandon some advantages while clearing lanes. To balance, we tuned down the Speed boost from Ability 2: Ghostly Light. From these adjustments, we hope that Aoandon will have a better performance in Heian-kyo.

Ability 1: Butterfly Shadow

Base Damage adjusted from 20/32.5/45/57.5/70 to 30/45/60/75/90.

Ability 2: Ghostly Light

Boost to movement speed adjusted from 40% to 20%.

Adjusted Slow effect from 20%/22.5%/25%/27.5%/30% to 30%/35%/40%/45%/50%.

Kidomaru

Kidomaru is rather underpowered. Ability 1 can only be used when 4 imps are available, causing instances where Ability 2: Skeletal Chain hits an enemy but lacks the follow-up combo from Ability 1: Killing Satisfaction. By addressing this issue, we hoped to make Kidomaru a much more agile character.

Ability 1: Killing Satisfaction

Can be used when Kidomaru binds an imp.

Izaya

Izaya is a bit overpowering in the current patch. Even without the aid of other control abilities, Ability 3: Different Paths has a very high hit rate, making it difficult for opponents to counteract. Also, there is a noticeable gap in Izaya’s performance between the early game and late game. We hope to nerf Izaya’s lane-clearing and recovery capabilities during early game, and increase her Ultimate Ability’s Ability Power gain to let her maintain a reasonable amount of strength during late game.

Ability 1: Shrill Shuttle

Reduced the damage dealt to soldiers from 140% to 120%.

Ability 2: Brocade

No longer triggers HP Regen from soldiers.

Ability 3: Different Paths

Increased delay from 0.9 seconds to 1.1 seconds.

Ultimate Ability: Ceaseless Cycle

Adjusted the damage to all enemies within range from 250/350/450 (+60% Ability Power) to 250/350/450 (+100% Ability Power).

Kingyo

Kingyo is rather underpowered in the current patch, with the performance starting to noticeably wane since mid game. By slightly adjusting her Ability Power gain during late game, we hope that Kingyo will have a better performance in Heian-kyo.

Ability 2: Water Wave

Damage adjusted from 80/130/180/230/280 (+40% Ability Power) to 110/170/230/290/350 (+50% Ability Power).

Cast range increased from 900 to 950.

Aobozu

We hoped that Aobozu’s: Demonbane Form would provide Aobozu with more lane choices, but Aobozu is rather underpowered in the Jungle. Therefore, we decided to adjust Aobozu’s Jungle speed. For a Samurai type shikigami, Aobozu is relatively underpowered when compared to other Samurai shikigami, even when Aobozu is in the: Demonbane Form state. Therefore, we adjusted Ability 2: Divine Greatness and Ultimate Ability: Everything is Empty. We hope that these changes to Aobozu’s: Demonbane Form will let Aobozu have a better performance in Heian-kyo.

Ability 2: Divine Greatness

Damage from slash adjusted from 65/110/155/200/245 (+70% Bonus Attack) to 80/130/180/230/280 (+80% Bonus Attack).

Mark damage adjusted from 120/185/250/315/380 (+150% Bonus Attack)(+3% bonus maximum health) to 140/215/290/365/440(+160% Bonus Attack)(+3.6% bonus maximum health).

Ultimate Ability: Everything Is Empty

Damage adjusted from 250/425/600 (+150% Bonus Attack) (+20%/22.5%/25% HP lost) to 250/475/700 (+150% Bonus Attack) (+22.5%/25%/27.5% HP lost)

Bakekujira

Currently, Bakekujira’s performance during battles is slightly lacking when compared against other Support-type shikigami. After evaluating the ability combos, we believe that Bakekujira’s burst damage was weak during melee battles when compared against other Support-type shikigami. Therefore, we adjusted the benefits gained upon hits within close range for Ability 2: Water Strike. Also, we adjusted the cast logic for Ability 3: Whale Spout and optimized the cancel mechanism for the Ultimate Ability: Conch Summoning to improve the casting experience and lessen the room for error for players.

First skill: Whale Armor

During: Body Armor state, magic resistance will no longer be increased.

The shield provided by: Body Armor effect has been increased from 80/125/170/215/260 (+50% AP) (+6% bonus maximum health) to 90/140/190/240/290 (+55% AP) (+6.5% bonus maximum health).

Second skill: Water Assault

Cooldown reduced from 8/7.5/7/6.5/6 seconds to 7/6.5/6/5.5/5 seconds.

Damage dealt when hitting enemies in close range increased from 80/125/170/215/260 (+45% AP) (+10% bonus maximum health) to 120/190/260/330/400 (+70% AP) (+15% bonus maximum health).

No longer refunds cooldown when hitting enemies in close range.

Cast time reduced.

Third skill: Whale Wave

Cast logic adjusted to directional skill.

No longer refunds second skill: Water Assault cooldown when hitting the enemy Shikigami.

Cast range increased from 900 to 1000.

Bullet speed increased from 1200 to 1320.

Knock-up distance increased from 500 to 550.

Ultimate skill: Call of the Deep

Distance for enemies to break free from suppression increased from 350 to 450.

Hoshiguma Doji

Currently, while in the jungle, Hoshiguma Doji relies too much on Ability 1: Heed My Words to clear monsters. When this Ability is on cooldown, Hoshiguma Doji’s support and jungle combat capabilities becomes significantly reduced. Therefore, we optimized the jungle-clearing experience in hopes that, while in the jungle, Hoshiguma Doji will have higher supportive capabilities and jungle combat prowess. We also balanced the overall strength by adjusting the ability’s cooldown and damage.

Ability 1: Heed My Words

When Hoshiguma Doji seals monsters, recharge 1 stack to Ability 1: Heed My Words.

Cooldown adjusted from 7/6.75/6.5/6.25/6 to 8/7.75/7.5/7.25/7 seconds.

Adjusted damage ratio to soldiers from 135% to 155%.

Added damage cap against monsters: 30 + 16.5 * current level.

Ability 3: Avatar of Wine Demon

Adjusted cooldown from 14/13/12/11/10 second(s) to 12/11/10/9/8 second(s).

The instant teleportation can no longer dodge projectile-type abilities.

Onikiri

In the current edition, Onikiri’s combat prowess is a bit weak in early and mid game. We enhanced the slash damage from Ability 3 to let Onikiri have a fighting chance in early and mid game.

Ability 3:

Charged slash damage adjusted from 90/140/195/250/305 (+60% Bonus Attack) to 90/155/220/285/350 (+60% Bonus Attack).

Kujira

After the last adjustment, the hit rate from Kujira’s Ultimate Ability: Surging Bones has far surpassed our expectations. We tuned down this ability’s speed in hopes of keeping the hit rate at a reasonable range.

Ability 3: Whale Bone: Station

Shield value increased from 80/110/140/170/200 (+50% Bonus Attack) (+4% Bonus Max HP) to 80/110/140/170/200 (+60% bonus attack) (+4% Bonus Max HP).

Ultimate Ability: Surging Bones

Reduced projectile speed from 1,250 to 1,110.

Optimized Battlefield Notification

We hope to keep all relevant in-battle information neatly and clearly displayed to better help all players focus on the information they need during the heat of battle. We will continue to find ways to improve on clarity issues for abilities. If you have any suggestions or feedback on an ability’s clarity, feel free to email us at [email protected]. We highly value your opinions and will actively consider them for further optimization.
The specific optimization details for this update are as follows:

Optimized the special effect clarity for Ootengu: Feathered Pavilion skin’s Ability 2, Ability 3, and Ultimate Ability. Both sides can now clearly see the effective range of the ability.

Enhanced the special effect intensity for Miketsu: Oath: Lightchaser skin’s Ability 1 for the end of the bullet. Both sides can now clearly see the effective range of the ability.

Optimized the special effect intensity for Dodomeki: Moonlit Lantern’s Ability 3. Both sides can now clearly see the actual position of the ability.

Weakened the special effect intensity for Bukkuman’s Ability 2, lowering the prompt effect to allies and making it better match the ability’s logic.

Added a dynamic display for Bukkuman’s Ultimate Ability, making it better match the ability’s logic.

Enhanced the special effects under low resolution for Tenjo Kudari’s Ultimate Ability when walking out the house and added a warning effect from the enemy’s view. Both sides can now clearly see the effective range and effects of the ability.

Added a warning effect from the enemy’s view for Yuki Onna’s Ability 1, enhancing the visual prompt’s special effects for the enemy.

Optimizations and Adjustments

Improved the usage experience of ability cache when the Smart Casting and Tracking function is enabled.

Improved Tanjiro’s energy display mechanism. Now, each bar represents 50 Energy.

Improved the casting mechanism of Bakekujira’s Ultimate Ability: Conch Summoning. Now, clicking the Ability again will not cancel the ability.

Added a new feature that automatically triggers character selection animations for players in the Grandmaster and above tiers during Ranked Matches. Once all characters have been selected and the timer to exchange characters has started, the character selection animation will automatically trigger once the countdown reaches 12 seconds. Some shikigami and skins without independent character selection animations may not be able to trigger the animation for now, but this will be revised in future updates to ensure the animations are triggered.

Free Shikigami Lineup Adjustments

We will change the lineup of the limited-time free shikigami at 5:00 AM on July 3rd, 2023. The new free shikigami will be Jikikaeru, Momo, Karasu Tengu, Hone Onna, Kingyo, Kuro, Kaguya, and Shiro.

Onmyoji who own the God of Fortune Month Pact will have the additional free shikigami, Mannendake and Oitsuki.

Of these shikigami, Shiro has a difficulty of Extreme. Onmyoji who have been in Heian-kyo for less than 7 days can’t use him in battle for free.
