Hello, Mercenaries!
The update on August 6 will bring improvements to Rust, a new character introduced in July.
Also 3 weapons will be added/removed for Elvacia, a new Conquest match map will be introduced, and Skill/Module Page UX will be improved as well.
Please check out the details below.
1. Rust Character Improvement
Rust will be improved so that the complexity of the character will be eased while there are some controls involved to fit the nature of shooter games. To bring this change, we plan to provide 2 new basic weapons that can directly attack enemies and change Recharging Drone and Beam Turret to Special Weapon. Also, weapons with low usage such as Shield Bash and Recall Drone will be removed.
With the improvements to Rust, we expect that the base skill will also see some low usage. Therefore, we plan to change Rust’s Mercenary Skills as well.
2. 3 Elvacia Weapons Added/Removed
We will be improving Elvacia’s weapons so that enemies will not just have a single type of combat experience against her. To achieve this, Shotgun Pistol, Explosive Shotgun Pistol, and Triple Barrel will be removed and Fated Trajectory, Frostseed, and Light of Judgment will be added. With the removal of weapons, related achievements will be removed. Players who were progressing through the achievement will receive gold compensation.
3. New Blackstar Capture Map: Isolated Supply Lines
A 3rd Blackstar Capture map in the theme of Scars of War: Isolated Supply Lines will be added. The map is smaller than the other maps, causing players to be pitted against each other, resulting in fiercer battles against each other.
4. Skill / Module Page UX Improvements
To provide a better understanding of each mercenaries and their skills, Skill Page UI and description will be improved. The Module Page will also be improved so that players can see the type of modules in possession and manage modules with more ease in general.
