Skill and Mechanic Changes

Some skills, status effects and mechanics have been changed here on LeikaRO. All buffs, nerfs, and changes will be listed underneath. Fixes will not be listed.
If no change is listed then the skill should be assumed to be working as intended. Inquire and give your suggestions about changes on the forum and Discord.

General

Most of skill animations were reworked to look nice and not clog the client with visuals and sounds, area skills don't replicate their animation/sound for every target hit,
white "bash" effect is removed for skills where it doesn't belong, skills missing weapon motion had it added. Skills that had no animation, now have one.
Multiple status effects that had no trigger visual effects, now have one. Those include: Bleeding, Fear, Deep Sleep and Crystallization.
Variable Cast Times of most first and second job skills were drastically reduced and Fixed Cast Time portions either removed entirely or greatly reduced to represent their usage pre-Renewal.
Some of the skills affected by this are Arrow Vulcan, Sharp Shooting, Magnus Exorcismus and all Wizard AoEs.
This does not include signature powerhouse skills like Acid Demonstration or Asura Strike and most support skills.
Healing abilities that account MATK, heal for a fixed amount, without a variation.
Renewal's Base Level damage scaling applies at the end of the formula, after all other possible modifiers, this means that some skills that didn't feel good before, now scale better.
ASPD formula was tweaked to resemble that of iRO but with buffs having a stronger effect. In practice this means that higher ASPD values are considerably easier to achieve if you invest into it.
Double Hit effect is no longer capped at 50%, it is possible to go over that number through various gear bonuses and Kagemusha.
Abilities like Chain Action, Eternal Chain, Fear Breeze and Triple Attack are also boosted by such effects.
Various new equipment pieces and cards exist that boost both the chance and the damage of such mechanics.
Skills that affect the whole party, no longer make anyone except the caster perform their casting motion, shouting the skill's name. They instead simply show the visual animation and play the sound.
This results in smoother party gameplay without constant position lagging. Their animations aren't shown on concealed targets.
Those skills are: Angelus, Gloria, Magnificat, Clementia, Canto Candidus, Praefatio, Coluceo Heal, Lauda Agnus, Lauda Ramus, Adrenaline Rush, Full Adrenaline Rush, Weapon Perfection, Over Thrust and Wind Walk.
Vulture's Eye and Snake's Eye had their range increasing bonues normalized to match our vision and attack range settings, those skills now grant up to 5 cells increased range at level 10.
Bows and guns have a base range of 9 cells instead of 5.
Plant monsters receive 1 damage from skills, statuses or reflect effects in all cases. Multihit effects like Double Attack and Fear Breeze as well as dual wielding, still apply separate hits.
Third Baby Jobs have a stat cap of 120 instead of 117.
Autocasted skills do not consume item catalysts, if they have any. The general chance to autocast has been increased for almost all items with such bonuses.
Barrier effects such as Kyrie Eleison, Stonehard Skin and Platinum Alter are not removed by damage types that they don't block.
Meaning that for example magical damage doesn't count towards Kyrie Eleison's damage limit.
Monsters summoned by Bio Cannibalize, Sphere Mine, Summon Legion and FAWs, log their kills as master's own for the purpose of quest progress, loot right and MVP rights.
Their attacks do not activate master's autocast effects.
Daggers, Knuckles and Books deal 75% damage to large targets.
Whips deal 75% damage to large targets, just like Instruments.
Two-Handed Spears passively grant +25% Hard DEF.
Two-Handed Axes have a x1.6 Critical Damage Multiplier instead of x1.4.
Daggers had their unused attack sound enabled.

Arch Bishop

	Changes
	Teleportation does not move you on top of portals, only free cells are selected. This means you won't randomly change maps when teleporting around. Warp Portal: the use of /memo is enabled on all fields that aren't locked behind quests, and in cities that normally have it disabled. This excludes fields with MVPs on them. Aqua Benedicta had its Cast Time and After-cast Delay removed. Blessing and Increase Agility deal 1 damage to undead targets, so Rogues can copy those skills.

Suffragium also reduces After-cast Delay on the next skill by up to 100% and the Variable Cast Time reduction is slightly boosted. B.S. Sacramenti no longer requires Aspersio. It is castable by default, consuming a Yellow Gemstone, which is voided with another Acolyte close, and the SP cost is split. No longer triggers Holy armor, instead it places a buff on party members which reduces magical damage taken by a percentage, recovering a certain amount of HP when damaged. Also deals Holy property and MDEF ignoring magical damage to Demons and Undeads. Mace Mastery is renamed to Arma Iusta and it adds additional magical damage to one's physical attacks, which scales with MATK, Base Level and increases as your SP depletes. Assumptio doesn't stack with Steel Body. Meditatio also boosts Sanctuary. Basilica can be used with units inside of it, pushes enemies out and its cast time is greatly reduced. Canceling the effect triggers a short Cooldown instead of After-cast Delay. Mana Recharge no longer requires Demon Bane. It was renamed to Frepta Armaiti and besides its original effect, it also enables the use of an active skill which consumes a percentage of your own SP to deal miscellaneous damage in an area around, burn SP of enemies and recover it to allies. Coluceo Heal uses level 10 Heal's value regardless of the learned level. Praefatio has the same Cooldown at all levels. Duration increases with level. Expiatio requires 5 points in Praefatio and Oratio. Affects MDEF and the value starts off higher. Has visual animation and status icon. Judex has 5x5 splash area and halved Cast Times (both Variable and Fixed). Animation was improved to not show the white "bash" effect on the caster. Oratio requires 1 point in Aspersio. Fixed Cast Time is halved. Success chance goes up to 100% and the effect up to 30%. Enables melee attacks to recover a certain amount of SP by a chance. Duple Light requires 5 points in Oratio. Its activation chance is increased, physical portion is able to crit and double hit, and magical follows weapon's element. Has a status icon. Clementia is no longer a requisite for other skills. Ancilla requires 3 points in Praefatio. Lauda Agnus has a status icon and displays its unused visual animation, and Cure's animation upon curing a status effect. Lauda Ramus has a status icon and displays its unused visual animation, and Cure's animation upon curing a status effect. Renovatio had its Cast Time reduced to 2s Variable and 1s Fixed. Has a second portion which scales with caster's VIT but only if the caster is an Arch Bishop. Odin's Power has visual animation and a status icon, is level selectable and the Hard DEF penalty is increased. Epiclesis deals MDEF and reductions piercing damage to enemy Undead and Demon targets, in the case of bosses the damage is equal to double that done by Heal. Eucharistica has only 5 levels, granting 2% per level, and the offensive boost is a final increase to damage, works against Demon and Undead monsters. Has an active portion which doubles the base effects and places on yourself a buff that adds additional effects to all Arch Bishop buffs you have on you. Silentium requires Lex Aeterna. Doesn't de-silence enemies, only allies. Can be used to de-silence allies in range. Cannot be interrupted with damage. Clearance only shows its animation on the target upon success. Convenio requires Ancilla. Consumes an Ancilla item, has a true Fixed Cast Time (not reduced by anything) and a moderate Cooldown. Vituperatum requires 5 points in Oratio and 3 points in Silentium. It's self-targeted, affecting those around the caster, has an increased area and SP cost. Cannot be interrupted with damage. Consuming an Ancilla increases Healing Done by 15% and SP Regeneration by 30% for 1 minute. Castigatio is a custom skill meant for battle builds. It works similar to Crushing Strike and Exceed Break but half of the damage splashes around the target, and a successful hit removes the Cast Time of the next skill, and boosts the healing of High Heal and Coluceo Heal by 50%. There's a visual effect while the status is active.

Grants transcendent Genetics the same success chance as a Job Level 70 Creator would have. The skill no longer consumes Medicine Bowls upon a failure due to the lack of materials. There's rumors about a book filled with strange recipes employing the Old Herb, whoever finds it, will be able to produce useful new brewages. Twilight Alchemy II can be used to brew Condensed Blue Potions. You may also choose which set of items to make by having only the required materials in the inventory. No longer requires various Jobs in party, just Soul Link. Bio Cannibalize spawned plants scale their stats and Base Level with master's own, use various skills and cannot be knocked back. They cannot be attacked by allies and the full amount of each type can be summoned based on skill's level They have their own names instead of copying master's. There's a total limit of 5 plants and the duration of lower levels is reduced. Monsters will attack them if possible. Sphere Mine spawned bombs scale their HP and Level with caster's Base Level. The explosion begins if any enemy is within 5 cells or when attacked by the master. Only the master can trigger the explosion, dealing 1 damage per hit, and allies cannot attack them at all, while enemies, including monsters, are able to. Acid Terror consumes Diluted Acid Bottle, has higher armor breaking success chance and does fully mixed damage. Flame Bomb consumes Concentrated Bottle Grenade and does fully mixed damage. Chemical Protection: Weapon/Armor/Shield/Helm consume Small Glistening Coat. Slim Potion Pitcher benefits from Healing done +% effects. Cart Boost increases Movement Speed up to 50%.

Apple Bomb, Coconut Bomb and Pineapple Bomb require White Powder, Yellow Powder and Black Powder instead of Gun Powder for their creation. Fruit Bombs, Throwing Potions, Throwing Foods and Strange Items have their full damage formulas and other effects listed in the item's descriptions. Slinging an item makes the Genetic shout the name of the said item instead of skill's name, and there are different visual effects for all kinds of Throwing Items. Demonic Fire ticks every second, consumes Concentrated Bottle Grenade and deals increased damage which scales with INT, Base and Job Levels. Area is increased to 7x7 cells.

Visual effects were added to all skills that had none. EXP gain is increased by 2x. Intimacy gain is increased by 10x. Homunculus S Maximum Level is increased to 175. Homunculus S MATK based skills were changed to be ATK based, they still behave like spells as far as mechanics go. Resurrect Homunculus only has 1s of true Fixed Cast Time and 5s Cooldown. Lif's Mental Change has no Cooldown/After-cast Delay but no longer recovers HP. Lif's Emergency Avoid boosts Movement Speed by 20% per level. Bayeri's skill casts can no longer be interrupted. Bayeri's Stahl Horn actually makes the Homunculus charge at the target. Bayeri's Stein Wand replaces previously active Safety Walls so only two can be active at once. The wall's duration matches that of the base skill so the visual timers are correct. Bayeri's Goldene Ferse boosts FLEE by 30%, casting the skill with Angriffs Modus active removes the previous effect so they can be swapped around. Bayeri's Angriffs Modus doesn't reduce Hard DEF and FLEE, the ATK boost is increased and it also causes Stahl Horn to ignore a portion of enemy's Hard DEF. Casting the skill with Angriffs Modus active removes the previous effect so they can be swapped around. Sera's Pain Killer can only be cast on self or party members. Sera's Paralyzing Needle increases Variable Cast Time by a lower amount and reduces Soft DEF and MDEF by a higher. Sera's Summon Legion scales the insect stats with caster's Base Level. They draw aggro and are fully attackable by monsters. Sera's Poison Mist deals increased damage and doesn't prevent some unit skills from being placed on top of it. Ticks every 1.5s at all levels. Eira's Overboost's FLEE bonus is capped at 400 on GvG maps and ASPD goes up to 190. Eira herself doesn't receive the status as it only lowers her stats at higher levels. Eleanor's Tinder Breaker doesn't root her if the target wasn't rooted too (Bosses). Eleanor's E.Q.C (Eternal Quick Combo) reduces Hard DEF. Dieter's Lava Slide can be recasted, which replaces the previous unit. Each cell occupied by the effect can deal up to 5 hits, and then disappears, instead of the whole unit.

Guillotine Cross

	Changes

Double Attack is a toggle (unremovable) for its main effect. The other bonuses apply passively. Katar Mastery increases Mastery ATK by 4 per level.

Counter Slash had its area increased to 5x5 cells and now has 1s Cooldown plus 0.5s After-cast Delay instead of 2s After-cast Delay. AGI and Job Level scaling applies as an extra % at the end of the formula. The skill is able to critically hit, with increased base CRIT based on the level. Weapon Blocking doesn't impair movement upon triggering and normal attack swings are disabled for a very short amount of time (Parrying style). Can be canceled at no cost and without triggering the After-cast Delay. It also fails to activate when Stunned, Frozen, Petrified, Asleep or under Deep Sleep. Weapon Crush has a greatly increased success chance. Cloaking Exceed no longer consumes SP or triggers After-cast Delay when used to uncloak. Poison Smoke is recastable, with new instance replacing the previous. Has 1s Variable and 1s Fixed Cast Times, After-cast Delay is 1s. Venom Pressure used on a target debuffed by Venom Splasher, upgrades it to Venom Scourge and detonates instantly. This consumes twice as much SP and if there isn't enough, the skill is cast with its normal effect. Venom Scourge is a boosted version of Venom Splasher, which gains Base Level/120 scaling, one extra cell to its effective range and a doubled chance to Poison. Additionally, it spreads the Guillotine Cross Poison consumed by Venom Pressure to all affected targets. Leech End was reworked, it now heals the user for 25% of the damage dealt as long as the affected target is within 6 cells. No longer hitlocks or interrupts casting. Pyrexia's reapplication refreshes Blind and Hallucination. Toxin works through Devotion. All poisons that cause effects at intervals, do so with an overhead emotion effect.

Akaitsuki works on effects that do not heal at 100% HP (Sanctuary, Epiclesis, Warmer and such) and shows damage numbers instead of heal amount. Genwaku fails to move targets but still applies the Confusion status in GvG, this has a fixed success chance that disregards resistances.

Game Mechanics

General Skill Mechanics

Area skills that went through walls (both officially and not), no longer do that, with the exception of Wanderer/Minstrel songs.
All knockback effects move the target straight away from the attacker and not to the West like it happens to some skills under official behavior.
For a consistent behavior, the only skills that hit through Hiding are either naturally of Earth property or those that do so on purpose, as specified in the description.
Skills that make one charge the target, such as Flying Side Kick, Charge Attack, Pinpoint Attack, Dark Illusion, Knuckle Arrow, Shadow Slash, Jyumonjikiri, Stahl Horn and Tinder Breaker,
move next to the target instead of on top of it and also check for walkable path in GvG.
Skills that can critically hit, display the critical animation upon doing so.
All effects that break equipment, signal it with the /omg emotion.

Overweight HP and SP Regeneration

There are three Overweight stages, in all cases, what's decreased is the amount, the intervals between ticks are unchanged.
- 50%: the amount regenerated is reduced by 50%.
- 70%: the amount regenerated is reduced by 75%.
- 90%: regeneration is disabled.
Those changes affect regeneration from passive skills: Increase Spiritual Power, Increase Recuperative Power, Ninpou Training, Spiritual Recovery, Voice Lessons and Peaceful Rest.
All Overweight stages are updated instantly upon gaining/losing enough weight, and so is the regeneration.
System messages for all stages are customized and don't overlap.

Status Effects

Basic Status Effect immunity and resistance caps have been changed to promote usage of pre-Renewal statuses.
To reach immunity you must have a total base value of 130 in the stat required to resist the intended status.
Damage Over Time status effects do not sap EXP from monsters, this also applies to Third Job statuses such as Burning or Leech End. Those statuses do not trigger rude attack skills.
Coma triggered by equipment bonuses doesn't sap EXP either.
Chill, Slow Casting, Paralyzing Needle and Masquerade: Laziness also decrease the Cast Time of monsters.
Basic Status Effects have minimum durations that are unaffected by resistances, those are:
- Stun: 0.25 seconds.
- Petrification, Freeze and Sleep: 1 second.
- Curse, Silence, Blind, Confusion and Illusion: 2 seconds.
- Poison, Deadly Poison and Bleeding: 3 seconds.
Burning is a part of "body statuses" that don't stack (all basic hard statuses such as Stun or Freeze).
To make its use smoother, it can't override the hard statuses, but those statuses do override Burning.
Chill also increases Fixed Cast Time.
Crystallization now fails to apply entirely on targets with 0 SP or below 2% of Max HP instead of ticking once. Has a much bigger visual effect once applied.
Bleeding ticks every second instead of every 10 and doesn't interrupt casting. Base duration is greatly reduced across the board, especially for area skills that inflict it.
The damage is based on Base Level plus 0.5% of Max HP, with monsters taking more damage than players, and players below level 100 taking less than those above.
Deadly Poison requires twice the normal resistances and cannot refresh itself to prevent abusive use of the 10%/15% HP zap from its initial application.
DoT statuses that deal invisible damage, do not reduce the EXP given by monsters.
Healing status effects such as Renovatio, Warmer or Epiclesis stop ticking once HP is at 100%, unless Akaitsuki is active.
Plant monsters take 1 damage per tick from any status effect that deals damage.
Deadly Poison's application is signaled by /panic emotion.
Weapon Break, Armor Break, Shield Break and Helm Break are the debuffs inflicted on monsters by skills and effects that divest or break equipment, this system has been revamped:
- All such effects now work on Boss monsters, this includes bonuses from equipment.
- Duration on monsters is a base of 40s, halved on Bosses.
- Success chance is globally halved on Bosses.
- Weapon Break reduces ATK by 30%, cancels and prevent the use of effects that increase ASPD, such as Two-Hand Quicken or Adrenaline Rush.
- Armor Break reduces FLEE by 15% and increases the chance to receive a Critical Attack by 20% (on practice it's like adding +20 CRIT to the attacker).
- Shield Break reduces DEF by 30%, cancels and prevents the use of guarding effects, such as Auto Guard or Parrying.
- Helm Break reduces MDEF by 30% and increases Cast Time by 40%.

Guild Abilities

Battle Orders has two levels, doubling the bonus at level 2.
Regeneration lasts for 3 minutes.

All Guild Auras had their area boosted to 9x9 cells and have 6 levels, granting an additional bonus at level 6 besides their base stat bonus, those bonuses are:
- Great Leadership grants ASPD +5%.
- Glorious Wounds grants FLEE +10.
- Cold Heart boosts INT instead of AGI, grants HIT +10 at level 6.
- Sharp Gaze grants CRIT +5.

Equipment Bonuses

A large amount of equipment (especially older gear) had its bonuses improved or revamped to accomodate the changes above better.
Those changes are extensive so make sure to check the item's stats ingame with the @id command and in this thread

Monsters

No longer monsters respawn within player's view range, it happens a couple of cells outside.
All NPC_ skills without clear animations and sounds, now have them.
Most MVP monsters had their MDEF greatly reduced, this combined with the previous changes, means that spellcasters are able to become competent damage dealers in PvM.
All monsters had their ATK and MATK valued revised, they're now rebalanced to fit the intended level range plus difficulty, and to match the monster's archetype.
Champion monsters use entirely different skillsets which fit their prefix.
MATK variation between monster's minimum and maximum is of 20% (just like ATK) instead of 30% so the spikes aren't as big.
General stats for some monsters were adjusted so they pose more challenge, this mostly applies to MvPs, Minibosses and some high-level mobs.
MvPs and Minibosses provide more EXP and usually drop additional loot since they're no longer a pushover.
Many monsters, especially bosses had their skillsets revised to pose more challenge and use skills in smarter ways.
Most MVPs do not change their target when melee attacked as long as they aren't in chase mode, this means that melee damage dealers can contribute without gaining aggro.
MVP monsters are trapped normally by Hunter's traps and the minimum duration of those is applied, they do not rude teleport or do anything strange. However, they will use Trample if they're trapped and being
actively damaged, which has a moderate Cooldown. This means that using traps to snipe down MVPs is pretty tricky, but if you just want to gain distance or breathing room, there are no issues.
Immobilized melee monsters only use Teleportation from their idle skill set if there are valid targets around, and all other skills when alone.
They also use chase skills when there are valid targets around.
Non-damaging debuff skills count as an offensive action for monsters in chase mode just like ranged attacks would. With this, using debuffs like Lex Aterna on MVPs that aren't being tanked, is more tricky.
Monsters that use toggle abilities, don't cancel those upon recast, the duration is refreshed instead.
Monsters that cast a skill on chase, do not unlock their target.
Passive monsters react to non-damaging debuff skills, not just attacks.
Passive monsters do not drop aggro when hit by an immobilization effect, they keep their target.
NPC_POWERUP and NPC_AGIUP increase HIT and FLEE by 50% instead of 100%, it is possible to deal with those effects using dedicated HIT/FLEE gear and buffs/debuffs such as Humming, Quagmire or Crimson Marker.
NPC_POWERUP increases ATK for normal hits by x2 and damage done with physical skills by 50%.
NPC_AGIUP entries used only on attack, are also used on chase.
All NPC breath skills inflict various status effects.
Strip effects inflicted by monsters last for half their normal durations.
Slaves of stationary monsters, keep their own Movement Speed instead of copying master's.
