The per-floor limits apply individually to each Combat page,
not universally to all Combat pages of the same rarity.
i.e.) Only 6 copies of a 'Limited'-grade Combat page "A" can be set up per floor, but this does not stop the player from using other 'Limited'-grade pages- There is no universal limit for all Combat pages of the same rarity.
- It is still possible to set up the decks of all librarians of a floor using different kinds of high-rarity pages.
- The newly introduced per-floor limits are only imposed to copies of the same, exact Combat page.
- If certain Combat pages face a serious degradation in value due to per-floor limits, their grades will be adjusted accordingly.
————————————————————————–
Based upon the feedback you've given us, we have decided to further adjust the upcoming update's details.
The additional changes are as follows:
1. Card Draw- No changes will be made to the way cards are drawn. (Removal of drawing an additional card when using 2+ cards in one Scene.)
2. Changes to the Battle System- The Positive/Negative Emotion Coin distinction will remain.
- Abnormality Pages will keep the Awakening/Breakdown (green/red) distinction as well.
- The list of possible Abnormality Pages that can be shown differs at Emotion Levels 1-2 / 3-4 / 4-5.
- Based on the proportion of Positive/Negative Emotion Coins the team has amassed, different Abnormality Pages and E.G.O Pages will be available for selection.
3. Changes to Books- Each individual character (e.g. Yun/Eri) and affiliation (e.g. Yun's Office) will maintain their own books.
———————————————————————————–
A system update is planned for (re)release this Friday (September 18th).Incorporating the feedback we received from the September 11th update,
we've adjusted and improved a number of aspects.
The changes to the system are intended to emphasize two things:<RPG-esque Fun + Freedom of Customization>
Our goals with this update include:
[*]Encouraging the player to utilize a variety of Combat Pages, Key Pages, and Passive Abilities
[*]Allowing the player to freely customize their Key Pages within given limits
[*]Increasing the freedom and diversity of deck setups
[*]Reducing the repetition of fighting the same battles over and over for leveling up and acquiring items (lessening "the grind")
1. Added a "Key Page Editing" feature
- A "Key Page Editing" feature has been added, with which you may "attribute" unequipped Key Pages to another Key Page to make use of the passive abilities belonging to them.
- By editing a Key Page, it is possible to equip passive abilities from several different Key Pages.
- However, the passive abilities of the main Key Page cannot be unequipped or swapped out for another passive.
- Also, it is not possible to equip the same passive ability multiple times on a single Key Page.
- Depending on the perceived value of the passive ability, some limits may be imposed in the future in the forms of passive ability costs, equip limits per passive ability type, or other restrictions.
- The changes to passive abilities themselves are as follows:
- Minor (yellow) passive abilities will be removed (e.g. "Pierce Mastery I/II/III").
- No changes will be made to the existing Unique (blue) passives (e.g. "Instant Cooking").
- Shi Association's negative passive abilities will be integrated with other relevant passives in order to save space for slots.
2. Removed levels from Key Pages.
- Key Pages now have their maximum stats and all passive abilities unlocked on acquisition.
- As a result, Key Pages can no longer be leveled up by burning other Key Pages.
3. You can only own a set amount of any certain Key Page.
- This change is intended to prevent a situation where too many librarians have the exact same setup, and to encourage diverse deck styles.
- The higher grade (Paperback, Hardcover, etc.) the Key Page is, the fewer copies of it you can own; players will hopefully find themselves contemplating whether to equip a certain Key Page on a librarian, or if they should attribute it for its passive abilities.
- A chapter-based filter will be applied to the Key Page inventory by default.
- Opening the inventory will automatically display the list of Key Pages from the most recently unlocked chapter by default.
- Increased the max amount of Key Pages that can be owned.
4. Changes to Books
- Each reception now yields a single type of book.
You can acquire all the Key Pages and Combat Pages of that reception from burning said singular books.
- You will gain Key Pages and Combat Pages separately upon burning books.
- If you already own the maximum amount of a Key Page, you will get Combat Pages instead.
- Upon burning a book, the rewards are chosen from a pool of Key Pages and Combat Pages, each page having a set amount.
- Once you acquire the set amount of a page from the pool, it will not show up until all pages have been exhausted from the pool and the pool is reset.
- Modified the chances of acquiring Key Pages and Combat Pages
.
5. Changes to Combat Pages
- Added a feature to save, load, and edit deck (Combat Bookshelf) presets.
- Decks will maintain being stored within Key Pages.
- The deck moves with the Key Page; when you equip a Key Page to another librarian, they will have the deck that is tied to said Key Page.
- Added a "Set Recommended Deck" feature for each Key Page.
- Combat Pages now have per-floor limits; a limited number of copies of a page can be set up in the decks of a floor.
- This is to encourage the player to use various types of pages and to strategize, rather than use a homogenized, all-encompassing setup for every librarian.
6. Changes to the Emotion Level System
- Adjusted the effects and numerical values of most Abnormality Pages.
- The Emotion Level threshold has been raised to 5.
You may choose an Abnormality Page at each Emotion Level.
E.G.O Pages can be picked at higher Emotion Levels.
[*]Removed the Positive/Negative Emotion Coin distinction.
[*]Reduced the amount of Emotion Coins required to advance to higher Emotion Levels.
7. Changes to the Battle System
- After using two or more pages in a Scene, an extra page will be drawn to compensate.
- Combat Pages with the ability to draw additional pages (e.g. [On Use] Draw 3) will not be changed.
8. Planned and Upcoming Changes to the Battle Preparation Screen
- You will be able to change Key Pages and decks in the battle preparation menu.
- You will also be able to choose to cancel the battle and return to the Library lobby during preparation.
