NewAbout Skill balance adjustments in August
【2023/08/01(Tue) 20:50】
Thank you for playing Menya Dragon Ramen.
Today, we would like to provide users with information regarding the skill balance adjustments announced in the Director Letter on June 1st. We apologize for the delay in the update info.
■Introduction – About Skills Balance Adjustment
In [Menya Dragon Ramen], we add Employees with various skills every month. Recently, with the implementation of “Skill Hidden Book", the variety of skills has been gradually increasing. And we aim for two main points: “maintaining a balance that creates a challenge in Dungeon conquest" and “creating fairness in the Ramen Battle Arena (RBA)." To achieve these objectives, we have been working on balancing and releasing New Employees and Skill Hidden books.
However, we are aware that the balance of “Skill to recover HP" is particularly problematic. There are two main problems:
1. Due to the difference in stats based on rarity, the effectiveness of Skill to recover HP possessed by high rarity Employees tends to be lower percentage.
2. Skills that we intended to be powerful are struggling to be active compared to other skills.
Since these skills do not align with the goal of “maintaining a balance that creates a challenge in Dungeon conquest " and “creating fairness in the Ramen Battle Arena", we will conduct adjustments.
Additionally, although unrelated to the adjustment of them, we have discovered potential bugs in skills that reference specific stats. These bugs are to fix as well as the Skill to recover HP. Please refer to the section labeled [■ Bug Fixes for Skills that Reference Specific Stats] for more details.
■1. Adjustment of Skill to recover HP in Appropriate balance with Rarity.
Regarding the first issue mentioned above, “1. Due to the difference in stats based on rarity, the effectiveness of Skill to recover HP possessed by high rarity Employees tends to be lower.” We have clarified the distinction between Skill to recover HP that references HP and those that reference COK and SUV stats. Afterward, we reconfigured the effect and activation. Since many users have already had these skills and may have Succession or Train Skills, we have responded by strengthening them.
The adjusted skills are as follows:
*The skill details Level +9
■2. Adjustment of Skills That Relatively Struggle to Excel
Regarding the second issue mentioned above, “2. Skills that we intended to be powerful are struggling to stand out compared to other skills.” We have compared these Skills to recover HP with the effects of newly added Skill Hidden Books and realized that they are relatively weak.
Some users may have purchased Employees with these skills with the expectation of their strength. To make their strength more apparent, we will adjust the effect and activation.
The adjusted skills are as follows:
*The skill details Level +9
In addition, we will examine the fundamental design of the “Regeneration Conditions" status to expand its effect and balance it with other Skills to recover HP.
The adjusted skills are as follows:
*The skill details Level +9
*The adjustment also applies to Ulysses Ruth's Skill2, 'Hydro Blessing'.
■Bug Fixes for Skills that Reference Specific Stats
We have received feedback from users that there are bugs related to skills that use “SPD buffs not affecting hit rate" and “LUK buffs not increasing critical hit rates."We were aware of these issues, but we apologize for the delay in fixing them. We explain in detail.
Employee’s stats are broadly divided into “HP, ATK, DEF," “SPD, LUK" and “COK, SEV."
Among them, skills that use “SPD, LUK" to conduct attacks had potential issues where buffs and debuffs were not correctly reflected under specific conditions, leading to incorrect calculations for damage, hit rate, and critical hit rate.
This was a fundamental design issue with the skills and correcting it would affect many skills.
Consequently, it took time to correct the problem while continuing to operate safely. We apologize once again.
However, we have now reached the final stage of the fixes, and we will fix them at the same time as the balance adjustment Skill to recover HP. Please note that this fix will not change the current skills.
The skills to be fixed are as follows:
*The skill details Level +9
*For~, each has corresponding attributes.
■About the Schedule for Balance Adjustment
The information published in this Director Letter is scheduled to be reflected on August 16th at 18:00(JST).
Also, we may adjust the skill balance as necessary in the future, but in that case, we will announce the implementation of the balance adjustment two months before the adjustment and reveal the skills to be adjusted one month before the adjustment.
■Conclusion
Although it is repetitive, we have designed employee skills so that all employees can be active, and by party formation and succession, various strategies can be created through formation and skill sets.
With “maintaining a balance that creates a challenge in Dungeon clearing" and “creating fairness in the RBA." we will continue to adjust skills as needed. Of course, we welcome your feedback and inquiries regarding both new and existing skills.
We hope you will continue to enjoy Menya Dragon Ramen.
