Balance
This set of balance updates is focused on enhancing the reliability of setup attacks for underperforming weapons, while also reining in the combo or knockout potential on overperforming string-based weapons.
Katar
Both the Katar Side and Neutral Light attacks have received improvements to their reliability, serving as consistent setup tools. The reduced force allows for continued follow-up attacks even at later health ranges, while also leaving the target closer on hit. The Side Light will now reliably combo into other grounded attacks, while the Neutral Light has received a minor stun reduction to keep its place as a string starter.
- Katar Side Light: Changed Force from 10 Variable/35 Fixed to 0 Variable/40 Fixed; Increased Stun from 22 to 23.
- Katar Neutral Light: Changed Force from 4 Variable/50 Fixed to 0 Variable/45 Fixed; Decreased Stun of final hit from 15 to 14.
Sword
The Sword Down Light now launches slightly higher on its first swing for more reliable setup locations, while also slightly increasing its stun to allow for more varied follow-up attacks. The Side Air has also received increased force and a slightly more dangerous knockback angle, bringing it in line with similar options on other weapons.
- Sword Down Light: Increased Stun from 19 to 21; Increased Force on initial hit from 0 Variable/40 Fixed to 0 Variable/55 Fixed.
- Sword Side Air: Increased Force from 33 Variable/60 Fixed to 36 Variable/60 Fixed; Angle of knockback has been slightly lowered.
Hammer
As the main option against stacked opponents, it is important for the Hammer Neutral Light to strike near the user. We have increased the coverage near the user for this attack to better serve its purpose. Similarly, we have altered the knockback scaling of the Hammer Down Air to better fit the Hammer's hard-hitting late game power.
- Hammer Neutral Light: Increased stacked coverage near the user.
- Hammer Down Air: Changed Force from 45 Variable/50 Fixed to 50 Variable/45 Fixed.
Lance
The Lance kit contains a great deal of movement, but also a great deal of risk in its attacks. We have reduced the overall duration of the Neutral Light to give this weapon a slightly safer tool to poke with in the neutral game. This will allow Lance users to more effectively vary the pacing of their attacks and better compete with faster weapons.
- Lance Neutral Light: Decreased Hit Window of the first swing from 6 to 5; Decreased time between the first and second swing from 13 to 10.
Gauntlets
We have adjusted the stun on a couple of Gauntlet attacks to rein in multi-hit true combos that were allowing this weapon to build damage at a much faster rate than other similar options. These have been opened up into strings, allowing for more appropriate counterplay and escape options.
- Gauntlets Neutral Air: Decreased horizontal coverage of the attack; Decreased Stun from 19 to 15; Decreased Force from 22 Variable/47 Fixed to 20 Variable/47 Fixed; Decreased Damage from 13 to 12.
- Gauntlets Recovery: Decreased Stun from 25 to 22; Decreased Force from a range of 50~35 Variable/45 Fixed to a range of 48~35 Variable/45 Fixed.
Scythe
The Scythe has received a number of changes to allow for more appropriate risk versus reward when edgeguarding against this weapon. It is now easier to properly challenge this attack from the rear and to escape strings involving this attack by dodging behind it. We have also slightly reduced the knockback scaling on the Scythe's reversal attacks, granting more chances to recover when tossed below or away from the stage.
- Scythe Recovery: Decreased threat coverage near the rear of the user; Decreased Force from 40 Variable/53 Fixed to 37 Variable/50 Fixed; Angle of knockback is now more horizontal.
- Scythe Down Air: Decreased Force of the backwards version from 27 Variable/52 Fixed to 23 Variable/52 Fixed.
- Scythe Neutral Air: Decreased Force of the backwards version from 35 Variable/34 Fixed to 30 Variable/34 Fixed.
Unarmed
We have increased the focus on armed combat by reducing the damage and force of some key attacks in the Unarmed base kit. This ensures armed players an edge in how quickly damage can be built, as well as knockout potential in edgeguard situations.
- Unarmed Neutral Air: Decreased Damage from 14 to 11.
- Unarmed Recovery: Changed Force from 46 Variable/53 Fixed to 40 Variable/55 Fixed.
Bow
The Bow Recovery could catch players too long after its initial attack, improperly skewing the risk versus reward of attempting to edgeguard against this weapon. We have reduced the duration and front coverage during the end of this attack for more intuitive counterplay.
- Bow Recovery: Decreased Hit Window from 8 to 7; Decreased front coverage on the later portion of the attack.
