[Season Adjustments]
1. Side lane terrain adjustments:
The current bot lane environment is more challenging than other lanes, making it easier for shikigami in this lane to be disrupted by those from other lanes during their growth phase. In Season 25, with the reduction in base HP for shikigami, the intensity of confrontations has increased, leading to significantly more interventions in the bot lane compared to others. This puts Marksman shikigami at a higher risk of being targeted by enemies.
In this update, we're expanding the side lanes to give these shikigami more room to maneuver and more time to react to surprises.
Specifically, we've broadened the laning area and increased the distance between minion paths and the river bushes. This change forces enemies to travel a longer distance to reach the side lane shikigami, reducing the chances of sudden ambushes from the bushes and giving ambushed shikigami more to counter. Also, we've widened the bushes near the walls and adjusted their distance to the outer turrets, providing better cover and strategic options for side lane shikigami.
2. Base Stats and Mechanic Adjustments for Marksman Shikigami:
We've optimized the environment for sustained output by Marksman shikigami by increasing their attack range and the range of some abilities. This is intended to provide them with a safer distance for attacks and more flexibility in their movements, enhancing their safety during continuous engagements.
To address their vulnerability during the laning phase, we're also boosting the base stats of Marksman shikigami, enhancing their combat capabilities early in the game to ensure they don't fall behind other roles.
As for their ability mechanics, we're focusing on enhancing their role as long-range damage dealers. We're fine-tuning each Marksman shikigami's unique traits, giving them specialized strengths and manageable weaknesses. For agile Marksman shikigami like Youko, we're emphasizing mobility while slightly reducing their slowing capabilities. For more robust Marksman shikigami like Hakuro and Chin, we're ensuring they have safer output distances and enhanced slowing powers, providing them with a more secure positioning during engagements. Specific adjustments include:
1. Suzuka Gozen
Suzuka Gozen's multiple dashes and enhanced basic attacks are her unique traits. We hope she can remain a relatively agile Marksman shikigami. In this adjustment, we have reduced the back swing of her enhanced basic attacks and dashes to improve the speed and feel of her combos and ensure her agility and rapid basic attack combos can be more reliably executed. At the same time, we have removed her slowing and damage reducing capabilities outside of her agility, aiming to further highlight Suzuka Gozen's gameplay characteristics. The disarm effect will be switched to her ultimate ability to better match her strength. Finally, to ensure she has some means of harassing enemies or cooperating with teammates before engaging in combat, we have increased the attack range of some of her abilities, which ensures their effectiveness; this also makes her combos more flexible and varied, reducing reliance on any single ability combo.
Base Stats Adjustment:
Base HP increased from 708 to 740; Attack Damage increased from 58 to 68.
Trait: Sharp Weapon
Reduced back swing time for enhanced basic attacks.
Ability 1 [Mountain Spirit]:
Increased attack range from 715 to 900.
Ability 2 [Valiant Cry]:
First dash back swing reduced; Slow and Disarm effects removed.
Ability 3 [Defensive Circle]:
Original effect: The defensive circle can block enemy damage. Also grants a 2s Haste effect when activated.
Current effect: Gains a 30% movement speed boost for 2s when activated. Each time the defensive circle takes damage from the enemy, it will gain a 30% speed boost for an additional 2s.
Ultimate Ability [Feathered Surf]:
New effect: The first attack from this ability disarms enemies within range.
Increased attack range from 1,000 to 1,050.
Optimized the visual effects of the range warning circle, added prompts, and enhanced ground feedback to better match the attack rhythm.
2. Kikyo
Kikyo's early game laning ability is currently weak, mainly because her Ability 2 is less accurate when not enhanced. This makes it difficult for her to harass enemies in the early game. Also, the enhanced effect of her Ability 1 is easily consumed on minions. This makes it hard for Kikyo to reliably use her enhanced Ability 1 in combat, thus preventing her from dealing the expected damage consistently. As a Marksman shikigami, Kikyo has too many control effects compared to other similar shikigami, and continuous control during combat is unhealthy for Marksman shikigami, as some relatively fragile enemies may already be sealed by Kikyo before the control ends, which leads to a poor combat experience. In this adjustment, we optimize the usability of Ability 1 and Ability 2 to improve her early game experience. The control effects are reduced, with more damage attributes added, which will enhance her offensive initiative and strengthen her positioning as a long-range stationary Marksman shikigami.
Base Stats Adjustment:
Base Attack Damage increased from 66 to 72; base range increased from 600 to 640.
Trait [Sealing Arrow]:
Knockback effect adjusted to a 30% Slow for 3s.
Ability 1 [Soul Collector]:
The required number of summoned Soul Collector stacks is reduced from 5 to 3, but it will no longer replenish automatically over time.
Enhanced basic attack count reduced from 5 and 8 to 3 and 5.
After leaving the battle, all stacks or enhanced basic attacks will be cleared. Enhanced basic attacks will not be triggered or consumed against minion units.
Adjusted the additional physical damage of enhanced basic attacks from 20/30/40/50/60 (+60% Bonus Attack) to 25/37.5/50/62.5/75 (+60% Bonus Attack).
Bonus magic damage increased from 20/30/40/50/60 (+55% Ability Power) to 25/37.5/50/62.5/75 (+55% Ability Power).
Ability 2 [Sacred Arrow]:
In the unenhanced state, bullet range increased from 900 to 950, width increased from 120 to 180, and explosion radius increased from 200 to 250.
Casting animation and back swing shortened when not enhanced.
Casting animation shortened in enhanced state.
The physical damage is increased from 60/80/100/120/140 (+120% bonus attack) to 60/90/120/150/180 (+130% bonus attack).
The magic damage has been increased from 90/140/190/240/290 (+87.5% of ability power) to 90/150/210/270/330 (+105% of ability power).
The damage coefficient to soldiers has been increased from 100% to 110%/115%/120%/125%/130%.
Ability 3 [Soul Burst]:
Before adjustment: Inflicts a Knockback effect on the closest target.
After adjustment: Inflicts a 35% Slow effect on enemies within range for 2s.
New effect: Hitting a target will also trigger the trait [Sealing Arrow].
In the unenhanced state, ability length is increased from 600 to 850 and width is decreased from 300 to 250. In the enhanced state, ability width is decreased from 400 to 350.
Ultimate Ability [Sacred Realm]:
Knockback distance increased to 100 yards beyond the ultimate ability range.
Haste effect on caster reduced from 30%/40%/50% to 20%/25%/30%.
Added a countdown effect for magic circle.
3. Dodomeki
Dodomeki's signature trait is her Natural Passive burst window, but her minor abilities currently feel underwhelming due to their low hit rates, leading them to become marginalized in gameplay. For example, her Ability 1's low accuracy renders it almost invisible in mid to late game, failing to contribute the expected value to the Natural Passive. Her Ability 2, while capable of hitting enemy shikigami from a distance, has limited impact beyond building up the Passive. In this update, we're refining her minor abilities: her Ability 1 will more reliably accumulate the Passive, and Ability 2 will see a reduced attack range and an increased debuff duration, enhancing its role in support and damage. Also, Dodomeki's Ultimate Ability and Ability 3 create a powerful combo of control and dash that can be overwhelming against Marksman shikigami, leading to potential instakills. We're reducing the control duration to prevent opponents from being entirely incapacitated by Fear, and introducing a long-duration Slow effect to allow for sustained damage.
Base Stats Adjustment:
Base Attack Damage increased from 65 to 69; base range increased from 600 to 640.
Ability 1 [Flaming Eye]:
Attack range increased from 825 to 900, beam angle decreased from 45 degrees to 30 degrees, and slow duration increased from 1s to 1.5s.
Ability 2 [Gaze]:
Attack range reduced from 800 to 700; Armor and Magic Resist reduction duration reduced from 2s to 2.5s.
Ultimate Ability [Cursed Eye]:
Original effect: Inflicts Fear on enemy shikigami within range.
After adjustment: Only inflicts a 0.6/0.7/0.8s Fear effect on enemy shikigami within range when deployed. Continuously inflicts a 2s Slow effect on enemies who subsequently enter the magic circle.
4. Kubinashi
In the early game, Kubinashi faces challenges with damage output when critical hits don't occur during enhanced basic attacks due to the high variance in damage yield. We're adding a Crit Damage growth mechanism to his Ability 1 and reducing its cooldown to ensure more consistent early game damage. We're also adding a cooldown reduction feature to his mobility ability to allow more frequent use in mid to late game, thus improving the gameplay experience for agile Marksman shikigami.
Base Stats Adjustment:
Increased base range from 550 to 590.
Ability 1 [Thrash]:
Base Crit Damage multiplier decreased from 200% to 150%, with an added effect of increasing Crit Damage by 1% for every 2% increase in Crit Rate.
Special basic attack range increased from 550 to 590.
Removed the mechanism where hitting multiple enemies reduces cooldown; base cooldown reduced from 4.5s to 4s.
Adjusted damage from 50/85/120/155/190 (+120/125/130/135/140% Attack) to 55/95/135/175/215 (+125% Attack).
Ability 2 [Swift Strike]:
New effect: An enhanced basic attack after displacement will reduce the ability's cooldown by 1s.
Cooldown adjusted from 7.5/6.5/5.5/4.5/3.5 to 8.5/7.5/6.5/5.5/4.5.

3. Marksman Shikigami Equipment Fusion Recipe Optimization:
Currently, the item fusion recipes for some Marksman shikigami are cumbersome, requiring too many small components and high costs. This delays their mid-game progression and limits their late-game combat effectiveness due to equipment slot constraints.
In this update, we're introducing more valuable and powerful middle items to streamline the fusion recipes. We've reduced the costs of fusion while maintaining the total price of the equipment, aiming to enhance the fusion experience for Marksman shikigami.
