- Grade: Advanced → Premium
- Average price: 24.5 → 50
Soul Abilities
- Woochi: Sorcery!

- Cooldown increased: 10 seconds → 15 seconds
- The sound effect and range of "Blink East, Blink West!" have been increased, making it easier to detect.
- Decoys created by Clone Technique now move at the same speed as players during the night.
- Decoys no longer trigger "Small Traps."
- Decoys are now visible like other players but cannot attack or use tools (to distinguish decoys, attack or tool use can confirm real players).
- Decoys are immune to all debuffs.
- Preta
- Preta now appears to “purchase” random tools during twilight, preventing identification based on whether tools are bought.
- These tools cannot be used and disappear after twilight.
