Arks Live Correction

Sega has posted a slight correction with the skill [Photon Stream] mentioned in the previous livestream. The skill works basically the same, but the effects are actually two separate skills.

• [Photon Stream]: Increases Power based on Max PP, skill level 5 reaches the Max Power at 200 PP.
• [Critical Stream]: Increases Critical Rate based on Max PP and increases Critical Damage※, skill level 5 reaches the Max Critical Rate at 300 PP.
  ※The Critical Damage wasn't clarified if it increases based on Max PP

Maintenance!
