- Artes' Damage Reduction Update
Artes now feature a damage reduction when overusing.
At the start of a combo, players will be allow to use the same arte twice before receiving a damage reduction penalty (numbers will turn grey instead of normal white)
Within mid-combo, players be required to alternate between artes to avoid suffering damage reduction till their combo ends.
Once the number turns grey, the overused arte will lose 25% of its original potency and the enemy's Burst% will increase faster, allowing them to get out of stun much faster.
Note that this is only applied on Physical and Ranged Artes, Magical Artes are exempt from this due to the nature of having a cast time.
Exemple of a start combo overuse: Flame Geyser > Flame Geyser > Flame Geyser (Penalty, 25% Damage Reduction)
Exemple of a mid-combo overuse: Flame Geyser > Skyward Fang > Flame Geyser > Flame Geyser (Penalty, 25% Damage Reduction)
