Greetings, brave explorers of Nanraas! Here’s a list of upcoming HotA balance changes:
Balance: Gherstie’s “Blazing wave” skill now deals less damage to psio-creatures and the om’veri, but it deals more damage to other types of enemies instead.
Balance: Gherstie’s "Wing strike" skill (will be renamed to “Cutting wing” in further updates) now deals more damage.
Balance: Azaries’ “Fiery speech” skill (Aegis Scholar exclusive ability) now applies x2 damage bonus modifier instead of x2,5.
Balance: Gherstie’s friendship damage bonus modifier is now less effective. Once Gherstie’s affection reaches 20+, its effectiveness will reach its previous value.
Balance: “Narration” difficulty attack bonus modifier is now 25% more effective (effect stacks for each Azaries’ level).
Developers’ commentaries: Aegis Scholar (Aegisologist) class proved to be overpowered due to immense bonus damage modifier applied to Azaries’ allies in battle. In order to make this class more consistent and balances, we decided to decrease the attack bonus damage provided by Azaries skill “Fiery speech”. Also, Gherstie’s friendship damage bonus modifier has been decreased due to it being too effective when stacked with “Fiery Speech” skill damage bonus modifier (in some cases Gherstie could oneshot certain foes or deal over 400 damage).
