- After your initial transfer, you must now wait 166 hours before you can transfer again to another ship.
- They plan to return it back to its original hours, some time in the future.
Photon Art: Infinity Fire
- In August 27th's Maintenance, they set the wrong values for Infinity Fire, making the photon art's power lower than intended. They plan to correct this issue in the future.
Extreme Quest Bug
- They've confirmed a bug where the Absorption skill fails the "No Healing" stage order in Extreme Quests. They plan to correct this issue in the future.
Persona's Voice Clips
- They've confirmed a bug where Persona's voice clips aren't playing in the "The Reason I Was Born" story quest. They plan to correct this issue in the future.
Mesetan Shooter Bug
- They’ve confirmed a bug that rarely occurs, where extra balls will drop when defeating an enemy in the Mesetan Shooter casino game. They plan to correct this issue in the future.
Photon Art: Messiah Time
- In August 27th's Maintenance, they set the wrong values for Messiah Time, making the photon art's power lower than intended. They plan to correct this bug in the future.
October Balance Adjustments
Due to the mistakes they made in their balance adjustments, the development team identified two problems:
- "Cluster Bullet" launcher PA is too powerful.
- Some parameters for Customized Technic Disks are too high.
Considering these problems will also greatly affect the balancing of future updates, they decided to nerf the following in October:
- Cluster Bullet's power.
- Some of the parameters produced by Technic Customizations.
This change will affect custom disks both used and unused.
Gunner Balance Adjustments
In regards to Gunner, they've decided to buff Gunner's photon arts and make the class less reliant on [S-Roll JA Bonus]. However, by enforcing those changes they discovered issues with how extremely powerful [Chain Finish], [S-Roll JA Bonus], and [Celestial Bullet (latent)] can be. They plan to perform adjustments to the Gunner class and will deliver an [All Skill Tree Reset Pass] as compensation.
These changes will occur sometime in October.
System Change
- Because a large number of ship transfers may increase the burden on the servers; they've temporarily extended the time frame to reuse the ship transfer function from 24 hours to 166 hours.
- Block names for each ship has changed.
Bug Fixes
- Corrected a bug where the Meseta rewards for Klotho's Time Attack client orders were lower than intended.
- Corrected a bug where the Meseta rewards for Klotho's Extreme Quest client orders were higher than intended.
- Corrected a bug wherein the parameters for certain set bonus effects were wrong.
- Corrected a bug where a player gets disconnected if they returned to the lobby and switched to a different weapon while their Jet Boot's gear gauge is filled.
