Battle-related
The calculation of certain healing bonuses has been adjusted as follows:
Previous Method
The maximum potency for Cure was fifty percent, while the maximum respective bonus for Waltz was thirty percent.
The following enhancements stack with each other for a combined bonus of no more than fifty percent:
"Cure" potency + / Potency of "Cure" effect received +
"Waltz" potency + / Potency of "Waltz" effect received +
New Method
(1) "Cure potency +" and "Waltz potency +" will stack for a maximum bonus of fifty percent.
(2) "Potency of Cure effect received +" and "Potency of Waltz effect received +" will stack for a maximum bonus of thirty percent.
(1) and (2) may then stack for a maximum bonus of ninety-five(*) percent.
*The final value will be calculated in two stages, with (2) applied to the enhanced value of (1), allowing for a total bonus greater than the sum of the two percentages.
Casting times for the following spells have been reduced as follows:
Remove Breath will now cure additional status ailments at the following levels:
Curse and doom (Lv. 60)
Disease and plague (Lv. 80)
*In the event that a character is afflicted with multiple status ailments, Remove Breath will cure only one, with higher-level cure effects being prioritized over lower-level ones.
This ability is still under consideration, and priority adjustments may be implemented in future updates.
