Features

• **All Jutsu can now have Critical Hits **Previously, only projectiles could have critical hits. This is also an important balance change for the future Critical Hit Rate and Damage bonus items/passives.

• Combat Messages now have a (Critical Hit!) indicator next to them in the chatbox

• Decoupled Jutsu Casting Interruption from Knockbacks

Going forward, not all knockbacks will cancel casting. We will indicator if they do.

Content

• Added new Jutsu Evolution for Shockwave Slash Technique

This is an upgraded version of Shockwave Slash Technique that allows it to be more useful at later levels and PvP while not giving a substantial boost to early game leveling and usefulness for Weapon Masters.

Balance

• **Agility to Critical Hit Rate reduced **Agility still provides a large amount of critical rate, but items will soon make up for a small loss in it. Agility has a lot of benefits as is and needed to be rebalanced because we introduced more usefulness to it since it was originally designed.

• Mountain Crusher self stun reduced from 1s to 0.5s

• Removed Silencing from Mountain Crusher Technique
