New Shikigami Invades Heian-kyo!
Aori
“Spider of the full moon, look to the stars and know your fate.”
Aori is the only Moon Spider in existence, said to be the symbol of the Weaver Girl. In Onmyoji Arena, Aori’s positioning is a Continuous DPS Mage. She lays down magic circles to restrict the movement of enemy shikigami to engage in continuous combat. Aori’s Ability 3: Arachnean Circle can record the damage taken by enemies in the magic circle and deal subsequent damage to them.
Trait: Bewilder
Passive effect: Aori gains a certain amount of Spell Vampire that is proportional to her Ability Power. If she is within the range of Arachnean Circle, this effect will be increased by 1.5 times.
Ability 1: Galaxy Amulet
Aori releases amulets to attack nearby enemies. The damage increases when the amulets hit minions. When multiple amulets hit the same enemy, subsequent damage is decreased.
Ability 2: Meteor Spider
Aori summons 2 shadow spiders to attack the designated area, dealing magic damage and inflicting Stun to enemies within range.
Ability 3: Arachnean Circle
Aori moves in the designated direction and creates an Arachnean Circle in front of her final destination, which deals magic damage and inflicts a Slow effect to enemies within range.
Arachnean Circle: It records all damage dealt by Aori to the target when within the magic circle, and a certain percentage of the damage dealt by Aori to other enemies within the magic circle. When the target leaves the magic circle or when the magic circle disappears, it will deal magic damage equal to a certain percentage of the total recorded damage.
This ability can be used again while the magic circle exists, and it will cause both Aori and the magic circle to move in the designated direction.
Ultimate Ability: Final Red Star
Aori releases a Red Star in the designated direction. When it hits an enemy shikigami or reaches maximum distance, it creates a Final Illusion that lasts for a certain amount of time. When the illusion manifests, it deals magic damage to enemies within range, and subsequently deals a certain amount of damage every 0.5 seconds. At the same time, enemy shikigami within range are prohibited from using displacement abilities.
This ability can be used again while the illusion exists, and it will cause the magic circle to move in the designated direction.
This week sees Aori make her official debut on the Heian-kyo battlefield.
The Star Observation Selection Pack will also be available in the General Store. The selection pack includes the new shikigami Aori, Evolved Form Amulet x1, Taichi Mudra x1, and Witchery Bell x8. You can select which to purchase! The Star Observation Selection Pack will be available till 11:59 PM on June 9. Don’t miss out on this chance to get Aori!

Balance Adjustments
Itsumade
Currently, Itsumade is comparatively weaker than the other junglers. We have suitably adjusted the base damage and cooldown of her abilities.
Ability 1: Hunter Repellent
Adjusted cooldown from 6/6/5.5/5/5 seconds to 6/5.5/5/4.5/4 seconds.
Ability 2: Invisible Edge
Adjusted base damage from 70/120/170/220/270 to 70/130/190/250/310.
Lord Arakawa
As Lord Arakawa can still maintain a decent output even when using items to stack his tankiness, we have suitably decreased the base damage of his Ability 3.
Ability 3: Flow Force
Adjusted base damage from 55/65/75/85/95 to 50/58/66/74/82.
Hiyoribou
We will now differentiate the healing capability of Hiyoribou’s Ability 1 when it hits shikigami and non-shikigami units. At the same time, we have suitably decreased the damage from Ability 2, in hope that this will balance Hiyoribou’s strength during the laning phase.
Ability 1: Warm Day
New: When it only hits non-shikigami units, HP restored will be decreased to 60%.
Ability 2: Sunny Companion
Adjusted base damage from 25/37.5/50/62.5/75 to 15/27.5/40/52.5/65.
Aoandon
We have suitably increased the damage growth of Aoandon’s abilities in hope that it will increase her strength in the mid and late game, and suitably increase the presence of her abilities.
Ability 2: Ghostly Light
Adjusted damage from 75/125/175/225/275 (+40% Ability Power) to 80/135/190/245/300 (+45% Ability Power).
Ability 3: Soul Drain
Adjusted damage from 75/115/155/195/235 (+40% Ability Power) to 80/130/180/230/280 (+45% Ability Power).
Nekomata
Nekomata’s Ultimate Ability: Nekogassen has overly powerful survivability, so we have added some difficulty to using Nekogassen when escaping to balance its strength.
Ultimate Ability: Nekogassen
The time required for the ability to summon Kitsuno has been increased, and Nekomata can now be interrupted by control effects when summoning.
