[2025.12.12] Warspear Online Update 13.2. Announcement. Part I

[Gaunter 166]

 

Warriors!

 

As the frost tightens its grip on the Snowy Bound, a wind of change sweeps across Arinar! We're rolling out a new update to class skill and talent balance, aimed at making combat more dynamic and expanding the range of tactical choices available to you. These adjustments are based on extensive analysis of thousands of encounters, your feedback, and careful observation of class performance in Arenas, dungeons, and large-scale battles.

 

As always, we invite you to test these changes on the public test server and share your thoughts. Some skills and talents may be further tuned based on the results.

 

PvP Status: Version 1.0

 

Heroes of Arinar, a new era of change begins! We're introducing a dedicated PvP configuration system – a major milestone in combat balance that will make every encounter more intense and engaging. Going forward, all skills and talents will have two distinct power profiles: one for PvE challenges and another specifically for PvP combat.

 

Update 13.2 introduces the new PvP status mechanic, allowing us to fine-tune PvP balance with even greater precision using your feedback and combat data.

 

Let's take a closer look at how it works!

 

 

PvP Status in a Nutshell

• PvP status indicates whether your character is currently considered part of the PvP aspect of the game.
• It has two modes: on and off.
• Its current state is displayed next to your character's – or your target's – health bar.
• Depending on whether PvP status is active, certain skills and talents will use different modifiers.
• When PvP status is off, your character takes 80% less damage from the first attack made by a PvP opponent.

 

 

Enabling and Disabling PvP Status

 

PvP status is automatically enabled whenever your character enters one of the following locations or activities:

• Arena
• Catacombs
• GvG events
• Cup events
• Alliance events
• Golden Sands (surface locations of Almahad)
• Outposts
• Castle sieges

 

In all other areas, PvP status is disabled by default. If you engage a PvP target – whether another player, a monster summoned by a player, or a PvP monster – PvP status will turn on automatically and remain active for as long as you're fighting at least one such target. After leaving combat, PvP status remains active for an additional 6 seconds before turning off. It also disengages automatically if your character dies. When leaving areas where PvP status is permanently enabled – or when entering or exiting dungeons, attractions, or event instanced territories – PvP status will also switch off automatically.

 

Developer's Note: We understand that damage-focused classes currently enjoy a smoother experience in PvE activities. They clear solo content quickly and remain valuable in party play, while defensive and support-oriented classes often find themselves limited to more specialized roles. Our goal is to give heroes who traditionally struggle in PvE more room to shine – without disrupting PvP balance and while preserving the flexibility needed for ongoing adjustments.

 

Looking ahead, we plan to expand the PvP status system and broaden the list of skills and talents that behave differently depending on whether it's active. Future class mechanics and overall game balance will be closely tied to the evolution of this feature.

 

A full list of the skills and talents affected by this update can be found below.

 

Standardized Attribute Limits for Summoned Monsters

 

With Update 13.2, we're introducing the first set of changes to the mechanics governing summoned monsters. From now on, all summoned creatures will share the same maximum attribute caps as player characters.

 

This change applies to the following skills and talents:

• Arcane Phantom (Mage's Guild of Almahad talent)
• Elemental Support (Druid's skill)
• Water Spirit (Druid's talent, Raging Spring branch)
• Dead Soldier (Necromancer's skill)
• Undead Army (Necromancer's talent)
• Call (Charmer's skill)
• Chaotic Assistance (Charmer's skill)
• Spawn of Gloom (Charmer's talent, Spawn of Gloom branch)
• Particle of Life (Templar's skill)
• Relentless Defender (Templar's talent, Stronghold of Faith branch)
• Beast Awakening (Beastmaster's skill)
• Deadly Illusion (Skill)
• Sneer of Fate (Skill)

 

Developer's Note: In Update 13.2, we are taking the first meaningful step toward updating how summoned monsters function. A key issue with the previous system was that summons could reach significantly higher maximum combat and defensive attributes than the characters who controlled them.

 

This update marks the beginning of a broader overhaul. In future updates, we plan to expand the range of character attributes inherited by summoned monsters and improve the usability and consistency of set skills that interact with summons. Starting with Update 13.3, we'll also refine how summoned monsters interact with AoE mechanics by including them in player-target limits for area skills. When this change goes live, summoned monsters will have a reduced chance of being selected compared to player targets, and their contribution to the target limit will scale dynamically based on the number of players within the affected area.

 

Physical Defense Adjustment

 

Starting with Update 13.2, the Physical Defense values granted by armor will be increased as follows:

• Cloth Armor: +~23.5%

Developer's Note: This year, much of our work has been dedicated to reshaping the game's balance in preparation for the new PvP status system. We began with the classes that needed a smoother PvE experience, and now, with the ability to fine-tune skills – and eventually entire mechanics – separately for PvE and PvP, we expect class gameplay to gradually become more consistent and enjoyable across the board.

 

We also took a closer look at several classes we felt required more substantial attention. These heroes received overhauled skills, updated mechanics, or meaningful power boosts. Along the way, we revisited your feedback to correct long-standing issues and breathe new life into skills and talents that hadn't been seeing much use. Our goal remains unchanged: to make every class feel comfortable and fun to play.

 

As we move into the public test server phase, we'll be reviewing all updated skills and talents once more – this time together with you. Your active participation is invaluable, and we appreciate every bit of feedback you provide!

 

See you in the next part of the announcement!

They nerfed the hunter and left the ranger, who hits much harder and from a much greater distance, intact, You guys definitely know how to balance the game.

[Biri Dim 8]

No changes for the warlock? They keep insisting on this mana-boosting mechanic that serves absolutely no purpose. Another year being the most forgotten class in the game.

[Veyshy 6]

Instead of starting PvP changes and any rebalancing from the right place —that is, from supporting new players —you are once again doing everything backwards, completely ignoring the community. The biggest problems have been the same for years.

 

New players have no chance of entering PvP. The difference in gear and enchantments is so huge that beginners die before they can do anything.

 

No sensible level balancing mechanism. Matchmaking pairs newbies with people who are full +10.

 

Still no daily quest for collecting AP.

 

The last league rebalance a 1,5 year ago was a joke.

In other games, your league position shows your skill to some extent, but here?!

 

No meaningful balancing, no real competition, no fair system for someone who wants to get into PvP without spending tons of money.

[darkdot 0]

I think most changes were great, but why does bd continues with a skill that depends on taking hits to deal damage since the class has no aggro, hence, he is not a tank anymore? I don't think such mechanics should be removed from the class, but it really seems to me that something is off, it... disturbs me...

Please tell me did this talent have any useful for physical pala?

[Hellscream 6]

In order to balance the PvP aspect of the game, Ferocity needs to be reworked. It should only bypass resilience not increase the damage to players.

[elsweyr 3]

R.I.P warden

 

Will all talents also be differentiated into PvP and PvE stats in the future? I mean warden's Will to Live (Unbridled Will branch). At least don't let warden die in PvE 

[Koya Wheel 12]

Can i ask a question, is this guaranteed bleed without demonic form after got hit by blink jump of reaper?

Hello! Question: DKs already had a talent which shared the Aura of Hatred' power skill with the party. Since it appears this will be an automated thing now, how is this talent going to differ from the previous status to a more updated one?

Honestly, reducing cooldown is a very ineffective debuff It takes an enormous amount to be noticeable.

Instead, reducing penetration would be a thousand times better

Hello! Question: DKs already had a talent which shared the Aura of Hatred' power skill with the party. Since it appears this will be an automated thing now, how is this talent going to differ from the previous status to a more updated one? 

Replaced by

Bounty of Death

• Now interacts with Threads of Darkness.
• Mechanics reworked: Threads of Darkness no longer draws the enemy to the character. Instead, the character now moves to the target and applies Stun to them and all enemies within 1 yard for 3 sec. While stunned, targets cannot move, attack, or use skills. Affects up to 4 player targets and 6 monster targets.

 Otherworldly Dash

• Monster target limit changed to 5 / 5 / 6 / 8 / 10 (was 6 / 8 / 10 / 12 / 14).
• Damage scaling changed to 35 / 40 / 45 / 50 / 55% and 25 / 30 / 35 / 40 / 45% (PvP) of Physical Power (was 25 / 30 / 35 / 40 / 45%).

they just needed to let the bleed effect be activated without the demon form, the class would be good for temple tower, and wouldn't not die in solo tec,

yes would be cool since some people play auto attack

• Summoned monster's damage scaling changed to 80 / 100 / 125 / 155 plus 75 / 85 / 100 / 120% and 55 / 80 / 105 / 130 plus 65 / 75 / 85 / 100% (PvP) of the character's Magic Power (was 55 / 80 / 105 / 130 plus 65 / 75 / 85 / 100%).
• Summoned monster's base movement speed increased.

@Robin This skill need more range for staff user, 4yards is too short if we fight range class will already got stun and then die.

[Erenkyojin 6]

Man, it’s so sad — the Reaper only really had two skills improved, and the rest is still bad. Delayed Death is still a joke, and you still have that retaliation skill that makes you choose one or the other. Honestly, there wasn’t any significant improvement. The class will continue to suffer. They fixed two skills that became okay or good, but the rest — the ones that actually need a rework — are still the same, meaning they’re still bad.

 Strength of Faith

• Mechanics reworked: Now, increases the Deity Statue's maximum health by 30%, extends its area of effect by 1 yard, and heals it for 15% of its maximum health every 4 sec.

Whats the point make this skill can heal itself, while enemy just focus on killing the user?do u think they will destroy this statue first or what?

[aFatOldManx 21]

@Shimarin Can we get the bleed effect while not in demon form as well? 
Also is there any plan to rework the current useless Revenge skill?

This really need guaranteed bleed without demon form. And also the black spot must be 3 seconds when explode the stun, 5 secs when explode was too long. 😓😓

Hello, my main character in the game is Hunt, and since it hasn’t received any improvements like the other classes, I feel the developers in charge of balancing have forgotten about the Hunter. Compared to the Ranger, the preference is quite noticeable. Hunt really needs a defensive skill — right now everything is left to luck. Its dodge is weak in MP5 and in 1v1.
Please don’t forget about the Hunt; don’t leave it for later. Thank you.

Does this mean that in castle wars the skills will do the PvP numbers on the gates/throne?

 Shackles of Justice

• Monster target limit added: 5 / 5 / 6 / 8 / 10.
• Effect duration changed to 2 / 2.5 / 3 / 3.5 / 4 sec (was 3 / 3.5 / 4 / 4.5 / 5 sec).

 Heavenly Light

• Cooldown time increased to 14 sec (was 12 sec).

Sucks but expected.

 Harad's Call

• Now deals magic damage, scaling with the character's combined Physical and Magic Power.
• Damage scaling changed to 160 / 175 / 190 / 210% and 115 / 125 / 135 / 150% (PvP) of Magic Power (was 115 / 125 / 135 / 150%).
• Damage scaling changed to 130 / 140 / 150 / 170% and 95 / 100 / 110 / 120% (PvP) of Physical Power.
• The Stun duration increases by 0.5 / 0.6 / 0.8 / 1 sec with higher Magic Power, while higher Physical Power increases damage Penetration by 5 / 6 / 8 / 10%.
• Monster target limit changed to 5 / 6 / 8 / 10 (was 8 / 10 / 12 / 14)

Are you sure you meant to say combined?! That's cool I guess.

  Faith Reckoning (Reckoning branch)

• Application chance changed to 20% for instant damage skills and 10% for damage over time skills (was 20% for all damage-dealing skills).
• Damage scaling changed to 35% and 25% (PvP) of Magic Power (was 25%).

What even is the point of this nerf on DoT skills? Did bosses complain that magic paladin does too much damage on single target? What an unnecessary nerf.

 

On 12/11/2025 at 5:26 PM, Gaunter said:

 Power Surge (Assassin's Guild of Almahad)

• Mechanics reworked: Now heals for 5% of missing health.

Again, a talent that was expected to be nerfed. Will see how it plays out. Though I think this talent should be completely revised to partially include magic power.

Also why is Paladin's mage guild talent is still completely unusable? If you're gonna nerf the overpowered stuff, which I'm all for, at least buff the useless stuff too!

 

On 12/11/2025 at 5:26 PM, Gaunter said:

 Intercession (Bulwark of Faith branch)

• Activation interval changed to once per 2 sec (was once per 2.5 sec).
• Healing scaling changed to 75% of Magic Power (was 85%).

You could have stopped at the first part and no one will notice or complain.

 

Overall good and needed PvE buffs for damage skills. Unfortunately, still, we have skills like Sun Seal, Light Defense, which almost no one seriously levels up. I wish they got some love too... 

 

 

[Drown 32]

Is this going to add 6% scaling on mdmg when gloom branch is used? @Shimarin

You guys got really lazy with warlocks lol. Like, nothing has changed. Most of the post in "Monster limit" and "PvE and PvP damage seperation"

PvP targets are no longer interrupted by damage from the zone

This is a major change. It kept warlocks alive this last year. If you're taking this away, return some sort of survivability option to warlock.

 Spirit Steal 

• Now additionally applies Spirit Steal to the character for 18 / 20 / 24 / 28 sec, increasing maximum energy by 100% of the drained energy (up to 20 / 25 / 35 / 45, plus 0.6 / 0.7 / 0.8 / 1 for each character level).
• Energy drained by damage over time reduced to 1 / 1.25 / 1.5 / 1.75% (was 1 / 1.25 / 1.5 / 2%).

+79 mana is the amazing survival option you guys were working on warlock all this time?
It does absolutely nothing. Increase the maximum energy numbers.
Does this spirit steal effect stack ? @Holmes

 Fear

+2 yard on skill please. If pool is not going to interrupt, warlocks need range.

 

On 12/11/2025 at 8:26 PM, Gaunter said:

 

 Singularity

• Healing calculation updated: Now, all energy spent contributes to healing.
• Maximum energy required for bonus scaling changed to 20 and 1% (was 200 and 10%)

Have to check in test server to see how good this is. Just easier to gain the energy numbers. Looks good on paper.

 Underworld Flame (Two-Faced Taint branch)

• Removed the penalty applied to Weakness Zone strength.
• Damage scaling changed to 60% of Magic Power (was 40%

 
Change the hit frequency to per second please instead of every 2s. I don't see many legion side buff to AOE damage, heal or control except necro. Elf heals are pretty much the same minus pala. BM tree wasn't touched. The same mass battle balance issues will continue for 1 more year.

 Fear +

• Effect duration bonus reduced to 0.2 / 0.4 / 0.6 sec (was 0.3 / 0.6 / 1 sec)

I feel like you guys are just messing with the players for the sake of showing something. You added 0.2s to fear in the skill and removed 0.4s from the talent. I mean.....

Conclusion for warlock Rebalance as per post:

1. Slightly higher and useful healing numbers from Assassin's talent.
2. Pool interrupt removed - Nerfed. 
3. No other significant changes.
