WILD HEARTS Patch performs some rebalancing – That’s Gaming

146

A new update is available for WILD HEARTS from Omega Force, with much-needed adjustments to the Claw Blade. Some of these include that the Wingblade Spin Slash no longer lowers the meter when your claw is stuck in a Kemono. The meter consumption with Wingblade Crescent Slash has also been reduced.

Although the power of Wingblade Crescent Slash is less, it does gain invincibility on startup (if the claw is stuck in a Kemono, of course). The Bow has also gained some much-needed buffs, such as restoring Karakuri Thread with resonance after performing a basic Karakuri combo. Dodging with the long-range weapon also consumes less stamina.

Karakuri Katana users can also cheer, as it now generates more Karakuri Thread than before. Finally, for those who fight Murakumo or its Volatile version and only get Wind Boost with their Talismans, they now have other abilities. Check out the full patch notes below.

Another content update is coming to WILD HEARTS on April 20. It includes a new Deeply Volatile Kemono, Deathhaze Gloombeak, and Serial Hunts, survival mode-style hunts where you must defeat numerous Kemono. Stay tuned for more details in the coming days.

• The claw gauge will not decrease when performing Wingblade Spin Slash when the claw is lodged in a Kemono.
• Fixed an issue where it was still possible to continue triggering downward Wingblade Spin Slash even after the claw gauge was depleted.
• Greatly reduced the gauge consumption of the Wingblade Crescent Slash when the claw is lodged in a Kemono.
• Added invincibility frames at the beginning of Wingblade Crescent Slash when the claw is lodged in a Kemono.

Fixes

• Fixed an issue where the Torch Basic Karakuri could be used at a wider range than intended.
