[h2]Motion Delay Improvements and Aerial Skill Use Update[/h2] In this update, we've improved the characters' motion lag, which is important to the game's control and difficulty experience, and made it possible to use skills in the air. "Dragon is Dead" is a hack-and-slash genre where fast-paced, immersive combat and lag-free skill use are vital. With this update, we're bringing the combat experience closer to the core of hack-and-slash, making the game feel smoother and the combat flow more fluid. With aerial skills now allowed, players have more freedom to utilize space to attack and can use them whenever they want. We've also adjusted the pre- and post-delay of all abilities to make them feel more comfortable and keep combat flowing smoothly.

We've lowered the health of early-game bosses, increased the health of later-game bosses, and reduced the health of common enemies. We've increased the maximum amount of optional stats that can be granted from equipment to make it easier for you to develop your character in the direction you want. We've also increased the reroll rate of Andes Synergy +1 encountered early in the game to make it easier to build Synergy. Legendary gear is an important part of the game, and we've taken several steps to make it more accessible to players, including adding rarity to gear sold in the Shop and making Legendary gear dropable from in-game chests.
