Hello, StormStrikers!This is GM Maximus.
We’d like to share the details of the 1.50.1 Update (2025.10.02).
Developer’s Comment
Ahead of the Queen of the Storm – Next Stage 16 Tournament,we’ve implemented a minor balance update based on the feedback you’ve shared during the past weeks.
Since this is right before the tournament, only selective adjustments have been made to avoid major changes in the current gameplay environment.We’ll make sure to actively reflect your suggestions in future updates.
New Character Test Ended
The balance test for Yuna the Crying Maid has ended.
Character Balance
Maximus
Key Slot Changes
Charge of Resolve → additionally available in R slot
Roar of Conviction → additionally available in Shift slot
Ironblood Retribution cooldown reduced 9s → 8s
Comment
We want Maximus to be able to catch melee enemies more effectively in extended fights.
Shifu
Dragon Kick damage increased 100 → 125
Cloud Step cooldown reduced 4s → 3s
Comment
We aim for Shifu to move more nimbly during prolonged fights, while slightly compensating for previous damage adjustments.
Eveleen
Key Slot Changes
Exotic Matter → additionally available in E slot
Accretion Disc → additionally available in E slot
Comment
Since using Exotic Matter and Accretion Disc separately was difficult,
we’re shifting toward a structure where they can be used together.
Lightning
Spiral Stinger travel distance reduced 1150 → 1000
Spiral Stinger camera rotation removed
Spiral Stinger camera lock removed
Shooting Star startup delay increased
Comment
We’ve slightly adjusted Lightning’s movement for better handling and to allow opponents some room to respond.
Narae
Divine Energy toggle → changed to hold function
Comment
For convenience, we plan to add toggle ON/OFF features to some character skills in the future.
