【Character Skill Rework】 VAL We noticed that VAL's usage rate is not ideal, primarily because her skills in Battle Royale can be completely replaced by drones that players can purchase at any time. However, we still believe that information gathering is an important combat skill, so we have redefined VAL as a new Recon Vanguard. Primary Skill: Dynamic Detection Field Deploys a dynamic detection field. Enemy units moving rapidly within the field will be marked and their positions displayed in real-time. Cannot detect enemies who are stationary or crouching while moving. Secondary Skill: Swift Mark While in ADS, marks all enemies in view. Hitting enemies marked by primary or secondary skills increases your movement speed by 10% for 5 seconds. Kraken We received feedback from some players that Kraken's vortex effective distance and range are quite limited, but we also believe the vision-blocking mechanism is very important. Therefore, we adjusted the way Kraken's blindness takes effect, optimized the skill's release form, and redesigned his appearance to make him more intimidating! Primary Skill: Vortex Releases a crow that flies forward continuously. During its flight, it releases a blinding effect on targets in the nearby area after a 0.3-second delay. The crow can be destroyed by enemy damage. Secondary Skill: Soul Hunt Killing or assisting on a target will leave a soul orb at their location. Kraken can absorb the soul when near the orb to gain skill cooldown reduction and health recovery. 【Hero Mastery System】 We noticed that players care deeply about their proficiency with certain characters and their identity as veteran players. Additionally, we want to increase positive feedback for players who play a specific hero for a long time. Thus, we designed the Hero Mastery System. In this system, all heroes are assigned different mastery levels. Players can increase their mastery level by completing corresponding hero mastery challenges and earn corresponding mastery rewards. You can also show off these rewards when playing in a squad! 【New Map - Raid Map Pack】 To enrich the combat experience, we have officially integrated four classic maps—【Tech Park】, 【Abandoned Warehouse】, 【Cargo Center】, and 【Industrial Jungle】—into the brand-new 【Raid Map Pack】, fully adapted for the 【Squad Battle】 mode! 【New Weapon】 RPK A light machine gun capable of outputting stable suppressive fire for long periods.
