End of the Halloween Event
One of the most notable changes in YBA 1.71 is the conclusion of the Halloween event. Here’s what you can expect:
- Spooky Scenery Removed: The eerie decorations and special atmosphere that defined the Halloween event are no longer present in the game.
- Jack, The Cauldron Specter: This spooky character, who had been a prominent part of the event, has returned to his slumber.
- Item Spawn Rates: The event’s special item spawn rates have been reverted to their normal rates. Candy, which was once a special Halloween item, will no longer spawn in the game.
- Stand Skin Chances: The chances of obtaining Halloween-themed stand skins are back to normal, with no more doubled chances during the event.
- Halloween Skins Unobtainable: The exclusive skins tied to the Halloween event are no longer available for players to obtain.
Bug Fixes and New Additions
In this update, there have been several bug fixes and minor adjustments that aim to improve the overall gameplay experience:
- Weather Report’s Disc Item: A maximum capacity limit has been added for this item, making its management more streamlined.
- Weather Report Pose: The Weather Report stand has been added to the Select Pose game pass, giving players more customization options for their stand poses.
Balance Changes and Tweaks
YBA 1.71 also comes with several balancing changes that aim to fine-tune the gameplay, affecting both the abilities of stands and their effectiveness in combat. Here are the most significant balance changes:
Soaring Tempest Changes
- Projectile Speed Increased: The speed of the Soaring Tempest projectiles has been increased, improving its offensive capabilities.
- Projectile Duration Reduced: To balance this speed increase, the duration of the projectiles has been shortened.
- VFX/Hitbox Size Decreased: The visual effects and hitbox size of Soaring Tempest have been reduced, which could make it more challenging for opponents to dodge.
- Windup Increased: The time it takes to initiate Soaring Tempest has been slightly lengthened, which may require better timing from players using this ability.
Hazardous Forecast Adjustments
- Turning Allowed: Players can now turn while using Hazardous Forecast, adding more mobility during its activation.
- Stun Duration Reduced: The stun duration caused by Hazardous Forecast has been slightly reduced.
- Windup Increased: The windup for Hazardous Forecast has been slightly increased, making it harder to use in quick succession.
Frog Rain & Frog-related Abilities
- Bypasses Counter Abilities: Frog Rain now bypasses all counter abilities, making it more powerful and harder to defend against.
- Hit Rate Reduced: The hit rate of Frog Rain has been reduced, which might lower its effectiveness in terms of overall damage output.
- Poison Damage Changes: Base poison damage from Frog Rain has been decreased, but the damage from frogs themselves has been increased. This means that the attack focuses more on the frogs instead of the poison effect.
Torrential Downpour Changes
- Duration and Range Adjustments: The duration boost for Torrential Downpour has been reduced, but the range boost has been increased, allowing players to hit enemies at a greater distance.
- Skill Point Costs Reduced: The skill point costs for Torrential Downpour abilities have been reduced, making it easier for players to upgrade their weather-based powers.
Cloud Suit & Heavy Weather Tweaks
- Cloud Suit Buffed: Cloud Suit’s physical defense has been increased to +10 per upgrade, providing more durability during battles. Additionally, the skill point cost for upgrading Cloud Suit has been slightly reduced.
- Oxygen Concentration Range and Speed Buffed: The range of the Oxygen Concentration ability has been increased, and its speed debuff effect has been enhanced.
- Heavy Weather Nerfed: Heavy Weather’s physical defense debuff has been nerfed, and its cooldown time has been increased. However, it now bypasses all counter abilities, making it a more potent skill for offensive play.
Red Hot Chili Pepper and Electric Guitar Updates
- Chili Pepper Buffs: Red Hot Chili Pepper’s base combat damage and the damage of the Chili Pepper Alternate Universe have been increased. Additionally, the passive electric charge of Chili Pepper has been reduced, balancing its power.
- Electric Guitar Changes: The Electric Guitar’s charge rate has been nerfed back to its pre-v1.7 state. However, it now consistently charges electricity at a proper speed, resolving previous issues with inconsistent charging.
- Electrify Ability Changes: Electrify’s base drain rate has been doubled, but the Persistence upgrades have been buffed to compensate for this change.
Lightning and Thunder Abilities
- Lightning Elbow Adjustments: The windup for Lightning Elbow has been reduced, and it can no longer be canceled by stun effects. These changes make the move more effective in combat.
- Thunderbolt and Lightning Drop: Both the Thunderbolt and Lightning Drop abilities have reduced windups, making them faster to use during fights. The Thunderbolt also has a reduced hitbox duration and end lag, improving its overall performance.
The YBA 1.71 update brings a variety of exciting changes, balancing tweaks, and bug fixes that will undoubtedly impact how players approach combat and abilities in the game. Whether you’re a fan of the weather-based stands like Weather Report or prefer the electrifying powers of Red Hot Chili Pepper, there’s something for everyone in this update. The end of the Halloween event may leave some players missing the spooky atmosphere and exclusive skins, but the addition of new balancing changes will keep the gameplay fresh and competitive. As always, players will need to adapt to the new mechanics, but the tweaks seem to promise a more refined and dynamic experience.
