Trainers,

around 30 minutes ago, the GAME_MASTER file was updated again, marking the second move re-balance in the past 7 days. There is yet no confirmation if this change will be permanent or is it just another swing of the balancing pendulum.

This update is very interesting as it did the following changes:

  • Duration of almost all Quick moves has been reduced
  • Power of Quick moves was reduced
  • Energy gain from Quick moves was generally reducde
  • Only a few Quick move powers were buffed
