Update Notes:

1. Estela's "Character Aura" Officially Launches

Since the Hero Aura co-creation vote launched in July, Estela — chosen by all Lightbearers — now officially arrives with the "Character Aura" system!

● Base Stat Adjustments:

"Bewitched Illusion": max-level damage of Breath of Temptation increased from 400 to 600; max-level damage of Potent Breath of Temptation increased from 3,000 to 4,500

"Violent Reverie": max-level damage of the Contaminating Beam increased from 920 to 1,380

"Accident": base max-level damage increased from 1,440 to 2,160

"Overflowing Calamity": Sacrifice damage increased from 1,200/2,880/4,800 to 2,400/5,760/9,600

● Brand-new Aura Skill added — "Ahamkara's Will":

All [Bewitched Illusion]s within the area covered by [Ahamkara's Will] gain 50% increased attack power (including [Sacrifice] damage) and 100% increased attack speed, and [Violent Reverie]'s attack power is increased by 50%. Using [Misfortune's Guide] hangs a 5-second [Ahamkara's Will] on the target combatant

When a [Bewitched Illusion] takes fatal damage, it retains 1 HP and gains the 3-second Invincible state, gradually restoring all its HP, and generates a 5-second [Ahamkara's Will] centered on itself

[Violent Reverie] carries the [Ahamkara's Will] effect throughout its duration

Augmentation Lv.1: [Ahamkara's Will] additionally provides 50% damage resistance to [Summons]

Augmentation Lv.2: [Misfortune's Guide] maximum charges +1

Augmentation Lv.3: The Damage Bonus provided by [Ahamkara's Will] is increased to 100%

Augmentation Lv.4: While any [Ahamkara's Will] is on the field, each [Ahamkara's Will] grants Estela 25% Damage Resistance and 20% Movement Speed bonus, up to 2 stacks

Augmentation Lv.5: While the [Overflowing Calamity] talent is owned, [Bewitched Illusion]s that die within the range of [Ahamkara's Will] can also trigger the [Sacrifice] effect. Each time [Sacrifice] triggers, it accumulates [Violent Reverie] energy by 1%/2%/5% based on the [Bewitched Illusion]'s level

Augmentation Lv.6: When attacking combatants affected by the [Ahamkara's Will] effect, every 1 hit grants 1 stack of [Resonance], up to 40 stacks; each [Resonance] stack increases [Accident] Damage Bonus by 1.5%, decaying 4 stacks per second after leaving combat. And when [Resonance] is at max stacks, each [Accident] trigger extends all active [Ahamkara's Will] durations by 1 second (each individual [Ahamkara's Will] can be extended by up to 5 seconds)

● The Aura Skill can be activated directly by completing designated missions; Augmentation Lv.1~6 can be activated by consuming Light Crystals

● A max-level Aura unlocks Wing Visual Effects and the Premium Dynamic Avatar
