Greetings, Saviors.
This is Kim Cheol Hui, the chief director of Eversoul.
Today we would like to inform you about the rebalancing of Souls aimed on Nov 23, which we informed you previously.
Souls who are on rebalancing are Dora, Mica, Seeha, Naiah, Prim, Melfice, Bryce, and Ayame, and please check the below can be deleted or changed without notice when it is applied on live server.
Dora
Dora is used in PvP with her sturdiness and becoming immune to crowd control effects when her Artifact is high level,
but she has weaknesses in that she is too hard to manage her health in PvE (Especially guild raid) to use her with full potential.
Especially, a penalty that she has to be lower health made formation too restricted,
we decided to revamp her mechanism to give more flexibility to the formations.
We aimed to adjust her especially fit with Jiho, Catherine, which was generally used previously,
and we adjusted some statistics as the mechanism changed the healing decreasing penalty was deleted, and thus she became super-durable.

When using "Bear With Me", adds a barrier effect equal to 20% of max HP for 24 seconds. The effect cannot be canceled. |
Mica / Seeha
Mica and Seeha are both used in Type Gate, but we judge they are used for narrow opportunities of choices rather than they are useful.
Above all, both two were not too durable previously, but the power is heavily decreased when one of them is incapacitated, and they are potential when after the artifact becomes origin;
it was the biggest problem was that they played with only half of their potential when their artifact was not fully prepared, or incapacitated before using the main skill.
We noticed that point, we would like to adjust their artifact skill to increase their firepower and durability, and deleted the penalty to use them in full potential when one of them is incapacitated,
[Common]
The additional effect won't be canceled when one of Mica or Seeha is incapacitated.
Mica
[Artifact Skill: Guitarist]

Origin | Mana recovery changes to 1800. | Speed and Crit Rate increase changes to 20%. Additionally increases her Physical/Magic Resistance by 10%. Mica also benefit from the effect. |
Naiah
Naiah is usually used in Type Gates or PvP as a joker card, for she has greater crowd control capacity, but it is dependant on chance.
Also since her firepower is low, she had no decisive finish to reverse the game when she was alive until the end thanks to her artifact effect,
she is used to solidify the victory when the power balance is the same or advantageous state, and we consider that she became less competitive as the Souls who can replace her role.
Thus, we adjusted Naiah's mechanism and increased her power to make her a more threatening caster by enemy damage dealers.

Prim
We consider that Prim's slow mana recovering speed and restricted support capacity is her biggest weakness.
Also, she couldn't receive the benefits of "Trick" passive skill when in guild raid and ESS, which had no critical damage, and her sub-skills were also too restricted.
It made her be used only at Violette based parties, which can make her near with them, and even the parties occasionally didn't deploy Prim for better firepower.
Other parties prefer Clara and Talia for their higher firepower and durability,
we adjusted Prim to be more durable and more variable to be used.

Melfice
Melfice's concept was made as sniping enemies with "Solo Guillotine" mode in 5v5, and protecting physical attack-based parties
with boosting Bryce's offensive capability by "Twin Executioners" mode in raid or ESS.
And we also intended to each style doesn't usurp the other, but we consider that both two styles were not pleasant, for we considered too much for the intention.
We consider the main reason for "Solo Guillotine" as becoming incapacitated while sniping an enemy with lower durability,
or not use the guaranteed criticals when the target of "Scaffold" is gone until use it to the next target, and by "Twin Executioners",
Speed decreasing for fit with Bryce and not-much-effective supporting capacity as the main reason.
We noticed it and we adjusted her uncomfortable points with maintaining her concept to make her "Twin Executioner" mode to be also useful in 5v5 mode.

"Twin Executioners" - The target receives 30% more damage for 18 seconds and becomes stunned for 4 seconds. |
Bryce
Bryce was originally intended to protect allies with her high durability, taunt, and enemy-pulling capacity in 5v5, and smashing enemies with her high firepower in raid and ESS.
Also, we intended the two play styles not to usurp each other, but the same as Melfice, but we consider that each play style wasn't satisfied at all.
Even "Solo Fortress" mode carries out in 5v5 mode, but the low durability issue from the given penalty in
with Melfice as "Twin Executioners" mode, and restrictions for first ultimate skill use, and less useful than Violette
in raid and ESS, who is on the same line as her, we adjusted Bryce's capacity.

Ayame
Ayame was originally intended to deal massive damage with bleeding, binding effect, and Encroaching Night, and
also charming enemy to suppress enemies' firepower in their timing of using the main skill.
But usually the game was set before she deals massive damage for her slow speed, and there were too much counter for her,
and also her narrow AoE, and short range were her problems.
Also, she was too dependent on DoT skills, which made it difficult to deal massive damage on durable enemies of front line.
We decided to change her skill mechanism, for adjusting her with remaining her previous mechanism is not satisfying.
We decreased her bleeding damage with higher AoE effects or added direct damage effects to prevent her too overpowered.
[Attack Range]
- All ranges of Ayames attack changed to 6m → 10m.
