Descendant Rebalance
# Director's Comments This balance improvement focuses on reviewing the way Descendant skills apply movement speed changes, adjusting the values of some of the less used Descendants, and easing the gap between Firearm Descendants and Serena.
As mentioned during yesterday’s Descendant Fest 2025, we will continue to address balance gaps between Descendants through monthly balance patches in Season 3. As a first step, we'll be making improvements to Jayber's skills on August 7th. We're also reviewing the combat efficiency of Skill Descendants in higher-difficulty content like the Axion Plains and are currently tuning balance with Ines as the benchmark.
The Dev Team is aware of the current disparity between Firearm Descendants and Skill Descendants. We aim to reduce this gap using Serena as the reference point for Firearm Descendants, and Ines for Skill Descendants. We will continue to take gradual steps to bridge the gap between Skill and Firearm Descendants through our ongoing monthly balance updates. |
