Temporary Restricted Area Improvements
Tweaks for various current issues for Temporary Restricted Areas,.
Temporary Restricted Areas will no longer spawn adjacent to each other.
This will stop incidents where teams could cross over Restricted Area walls under specific conditions, when the areas are adjacent to each other.
Players in a downed state can no longer be counted when declaring a win in a Temporary Restricted Area.
When declaring the winner for a Temporary Restricted Area, a player in a downed state will not be counted even if there are no other survivors in the area.
However, all downed enemies must be finished off in order to win the area.
This will help resolve exceptional issues caused when 1 team is separated in 2 Temporary Restricted Areas.
Saved Plans Improvements
Saved Plans will now display if materials need to be droned in to complete all items.
Ally Collision Improvements
Decreasing collision detection range for ally test subjects to improve characters pushing each other when colliding.

2nd: RP -10 / 5 Minute Penalty → RP -15 / 5 Minute Penalty

Dodge Penalties will reset 12 hours after the last penalty has been applied.

With the credit sharing for revives, there is a lot less of a reason to escape after day 3. We’re pushing the purchase timing for rootkits back, but also reducing the cost so that it can be a viable option even with less credits.

Debi & Marlene
1,075 NP→ 870 NP
8,020 A-Coin→ 4,340 A-Coin

After the limit to her Wild stacks, Nadine has not been showing sufficient growth during late game. We will increase Nadine's HP per level to compensate for her lack of durability.
HP per Level 69 → 73
Nicky
We are increasing the overall power of Nicky, who has been performing poorly.
Skill Amplification per Glove Mastery Level 4.2% → 4.4%
Debi & Marlene
After recent patches, Debi & Marlene have been showing a weak performance. Their pick rate and average score gain have both decreased, while other stats remain similar to before. We are increasing their base defense and we’ll make P - Blue & Red slightly less restricted to enhance Debi & Marlene's sustained combat abilities.
Base Defense 47 → 50
Blue & Red(P)
Basic Attack Damage 75% → 80%
Laura
We are increasing Laura’s overall power, since she has been recording low pick rates.
Skill Amplification per Whip Mastery Level 4.3% → 4.5%
Leni
Leni has been gaining a lot of points. Her P - Teddy Bear Attack! is showing excessive synergy with The Dragon’s Fury, so we will reduce the power of this skill and decrease her combat sustainability by reducing the shield amount of her E - Air Horn Gun!.
Base Defense 55 → 52
Teddy Bear Attack!(P)
Damage 15/25/35(Leni Level*4) → 10/20/30(Leni Level*3)

We are increasing the power of Tonfa Leon, who’s not really showing much lately.
Skill Amplification per Tonfa Mastery Level 4.8% → 5%
Rozzi
We’re reducing W - Flutter’s cooldown reduction, which has been used very frequently upon hit, to control Rozzi’s strong performance.
Flutter(W)
Cooldown Reduction upon hit 3s → 2s
Lenore
Lenore has been finding it difficult to accumulate Scream stacks. We will increase the Accelerando conversion rate of P - Melody of Pain. Also, after the last hotfix, the detection range of R - Capriccio of Agony became too low, so we will partially revert these changes.
Melody of Pain(P)
Accelerando Exchange per Scream Stack 1.5 → 2
Capriccio of Agony(R)
Insane Detection Range 5m → 5.5m
Li Dailin
Li Dailin is currently showing a weak performance. So, we’re increasing her damage output when P - Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) is well combined with skills and basic attacks.
Defense per level 3.1 → 3.3
Blood Alcohol Content (BAC)(P)
Dialed In Damage 35/45/55% → 40/50/60%
Dialed In Attack Speed Increase 30% → 40%
Mai
Mai has been consistently showing a good performance in the top tiers, so we’re reducing the taunt duration of E - Catwalk to decrease her ability to coordinate with allies and we’re reducing the range of R - Exclusive to control her ally rescue ability.
Shawl Veil(W)
Damage 100/140/180/220/260(+Skill Amplification 45%)(+Defense 30%) → 80/120/160/200/240(+Skill Amplification 45%)(+Defense 30%)

Slow Duration 1s → 1.25s
Vanya
Vanya will be able to move more agilely.
Base Movement Speed 3.45 → 3.5
Bernice
Since the last update, Bernice has been too weak so we’re increasing the power of Q - Leg Shot.
Leg Shot(Q)
Damage 60/95/130/165/200(Attack Power 90%) → 60/95/130/165/200(Attack Power 100%)
Enhanced Damage 90/130/170/210/250(Attack Power 90%) → 90/130/170/210/250(Attack Power 100%)
Sua
Sua's W skill provides a shield with crowd control immunity, enhancing her dashing and ally protection capabilities. To balance this, we're reducing the shield amount, making it a bit easier to counter Sua's effectiveness.
The Curious Case(W)
Shield 100/125/150/175/200(+Skill Amplification 35%) → 100/125/150/175/200(+Skill Amplification 30%)
Memory(R)

Shield 100/200/300(+Skill Amplification 35%) → 100/200/300(+Skill Amplification 30%)
Silvia
We are increasing the power of Silvia, who has been recording low pick rates.

Adela
Rapier Adela has been recording low pick rates so we are increasing her overall power.
Skill Amplification per Rapier Mastery Level 4.5% → 4.7%
Adriana
Adriana has not been earning a lot of points and she has a low pick rate. As a result, we’re reducing the cooldown of her passive so she can set enemies on fire a bit more often.
Pyromaniac(P)
Cooldown until enemies can catch on fire again 10s → 9s
Arda
We will help Arda use his R - Nimrod's Gate more frequently. However, to control an excessive use frequency of RQ - Shamash's Code, we will reduce its cooldown return.
Defense per level 2.4 → 2.7
Unleashed Power(R)
Shamash's Code(R-Q)
Cooldown Return 50% → 40%
Cooldown 20/18/16s → 18/16/14s
Isol
Isol has been showing a weak performance with both Pistol and Assault Rifle. To address this, we are increasing his basic attack power and the damage of W - Rebel Assault.
Attack Power 38 → 41
Rebel Assault(W)
Damage 10/15/20/25/30(+Attack Power 60%)(+Skill Amplification 20%) → 10/15/20/25/30(+Attack Power 60%)(+Skill Amplification 22%)
Alonso
Alonso, known for his strong stopping power, has been underperforming due to a low damage output, which affects the amount of points he’s been gaining. We are enhancing his damage to improve his overall performance.
Bouncing Shield (W)
Projectile Damage 30/35/40/45/50(+Skill Amplification 25%)(+Additional HP 5%) → 30/35/40/45/50(+Skill Amplification 25%)(+Additional HP 8%)
Jan
Jan has been showing a good performance with both of his weapon types. As a result, we are reducing the power of his Q2 - Leaping Knee.
Knee Strike(Q)
Leaping Knee(Q2) Damage 65/90/115/140/165(+Extra Attack Power 90%)(+Skill Amplification 80%)(+Enemy's Max HP 7%) → 65/90/115/140/165(+Extra Attack Power 90%)(+Skill Amplification 80%)(+Enemy's Max HP 6%)
Emma
Emma's play style has evolved since last season due to adjustments in skill damage distribution. Although her aggressive playstyle is beneficial, it has become challenging for opponents to counter her consecutive transformation combinations. To provide more counterplay opportunities while boosting the potency of her main skills, we are making the following adjustments.
Dove Dealer(Q)
Damage 40/70/100/130/160(+Skill Amplification 75%) → 40/70/100/130/160(+Skill Amplification 80%)

Irem
Irem has been showing a low pick rate and win rate, so we're reducing the cooldown of E - Love Jump! ♥ to allow more frequent use of the skill.
Love Jump! ♥ (Irem E)
Cooldown 20/19/18/17/16s → 18/17/16/15/14s

Ly Anh, who has been recording a low pick rate, will see an increase in the power of her E - Razor Claws while she’s possessed.

Eye of Azrael(P)
Damage 20/30/40(+Skill Amplification 35%) → 30/45/60(+Skill Amplification 35%)
Camilo
Camilo is performing well with both weapon types, so we're reducing the damage of E - Al Compás and his base defense to balance his gameplay.
Base Defense 53 → 51
Al Compás(E)
One Step Damage 30/45/60/75/90(+Attack Power 30%) → 30/45/60/75/90(+Attack Power 20%)

We’re reducing the power of Katja’s P - Ashen Reaper since she’s been dealing very powerful damage.
Ashen Reaper(P)
Extra Basic Attack Damage 30/45/60(+Attack Power 30/50/70%) → 30/45/60(+Attack Power 30/45/60%)
Kenneth
Kenneth has been showing good performance and a high pick rate, so we’re reducing the power and mobility from E - Fierce Attack.
Fierce Attack(E)
Damage 10/25/40/55/70(+Attack Power 10%) → 10/20/30/40/50(+Attack Power 10%)
Cooldown 14/13/12/11/10s → 15/14/13/12/11s
Chiara
Chiara shows a lot of power during late game, but most games are often decided in the early stages. We are increasing the damage of her late master skill, E - Mania, to enhance Chiara's early game combat effectiveness.
Mania(E)
Base Damage 20/40/60/80/100(+Skill Amplification 40%) → 50/70/90/110/130(+Skill Amplification 40%)

Base Defense 53 → 50
Haze
Haze is showing a very high pick rate and damage in top-tier games, so we are decreasing the damage and the use frequency of her RQ - Acceleration Rocket in order to keep in check her ranged control.
40mm Grenade(Q)
Rocket Acceleration (R-Q)
Damage 40/65/90/115/140(+Skill Amplification 45%) → 40/60/80/100/120(+Skill Amplification 45%)
