[quote=author] Developer comment Except for the common grade Werewolf, all other werewolves have a 2-hit jump attack.

Carleon Recruit

Since both Carleon Recruit and Grave Digger fight by summoning minions, something was needed to set them apart.
The new Carleon Recruit will now only perform the minions special attacks once the minions appear to inflict great damage at the desired time. The timing and direction of the summons allows the new Carleon Recruit to lead the battle more advantageously. Passives of the Carleon Recruit, which now feature additionally enhanced active combat, were also modified to better emphasize its characteristics.
Depending on the Carleon Recruits grade, they can have a passive buff that amplifies the physical attacks of minions. The attack power of the minions can be greatly improved for a certain period of time by using the gauge. A passive buff like this will allow you to concentrate the full force of the Carleon Recruits power.

Normal Attack
• Increased distance moved forward when attacking after concentrating
• Decreased damage dealt when attacking after concentrating
Passive
• Improved passive for Carleon Sergeant, Carleon Officer and Carleon Commander
Swap Skill

• New skill [Comrade System- Assassin] added
• Deleted skill [Perfect Slash]

Ent Skull

No matter the grade of skull, we want the Ent skulls to have a unified concept and playstyle.

Based on its grade, the new Ent skull will receive reduced cooldown times, stat bonuses and stronger skills when standing on grass. In order to plant grass, the Ent skull requires a special resource called Seed, so if you time it right it can make a positive impact in battle.

Grave Digger

Comparing with the Carleon minions, the minions from Grave Digger will not be able to move around and hard to be summoned. Therefore, by reducing the skill cooldown and duration of minions, weve decreased the stress caused when summoend to an improper position. Also, those minions from the brand new Grave Digger can deal with magical damage so that Grave Digger will summon them based on its magical power.

Swap Skill

Warrior

We initially designed the Warrior as a slow but a skul of immense power. This is why every attack of Warrior has a delay and skills can be enhanced by concentration. However, due to the games fast and dynamic pace, it was too risky and stressful to just stand in one place. We were concerned that the Warrior may lose its colors if we just reduce the duration of concentration and delay of the attack. Wed been constantly discussing how to deliver the strength and power of the Warrior to our squad and this is what weve thought of.
The new Warrior will continue to be slow and wait in place for enemies, but it now can withstand enemy advances and perform even more powerful attacks. When the new Warrior is carrying out the skills concentration completion attack it becomes invincible, and the relative attack is enhanced by the number of times you were hit while invincible according to grade.

Minotaurus

Everytime the hefty Minotaurus slams the ground, chunks of the rock and dirt go flying into the air. We designed the Minotaurus with size and power in mind, but the chaos caused by the countless fragments flying in the air wasnt actually that cool. So we decided to get rid of the chunks of rock flying in the air and change Minotaurus into a close-range fighter.
The new and improved Minotaurus has a stronger passive than before. This effect is called Earthquake and it increases attack range and damage dealt. Depending on the skulls grade, repeatedly targeting enemies could result in the powerful attack called Ground Shatter.
