It’s been a bit. This patch is the sum of what I’ve been able to get done the past week. Starting now, I’ll try to get on a patch schedule of around every-other-week, while affording time for beta testing the changes to ensure targets are hit without big regressions in stability.

This week, we have assorted buffs for primarily Ninja and Gunslingers; the Full Buster change looks sketchy, but I don’t mind just throwing it out there to see what happens. I’m still considering further adjustments, such as allowing Tracking to crit, and for many more changes to Ninja’s melee suite. As a result, many of these changes are just partial work. I just was not able to finish these changes before week’s end.

Sorry about that.

Finally, the Ranking systems have been overhauled for Blacksmiths, Alchemists, and Taekwon Kids. Instead of just 10 characters per class receiving Ranker benefits, they’re now open to all who achieve an arbitrary threshold of ranker points for their respective class. In the future, top 10 rankers will enjoy exclusive cosmetic rewards.
