2. Added A.I. to the training grounds : You can practice combat against A.I. : A.I. has 3 difficulties. You can select any difficulty you want.
3. Added a game guide : While playing Battle Royale mode, you will notice a lot of helpful in-game tips popping up, depending on the situation. : You can choose to disable this function through the “Display Tips” menu in the options.

[table] [tr] [td] Developer Comments:
A lot of players had a hard time getting used to the game during the last test. The game indeed is not easy to master, so we realized we need to do something about it. To adapt to the game as quickly as possible, we have made a Combat Tutorial. We are still working on a Battle Royale guide, so, unfortunately, it won’t be included in this Beta. In the future, we will continue to provide guidance to the new Hunter's Arena players.
[/td] [/tr] [/table]
1. Sneak attack : Sneak Attack is activated after remaining in the bush for a certain period of time. (The character with the Sneak attack buff is not visible to other characters) : If you engage in a PvP fight during the duration of the buff, the first attack's damage will be increased.
2. Adjusted stamina consumption while blocking : Stamina consumption while blocking basic attacks (left mouse click) has been decreased. : Stamina consumption while blocking skill attacks (1-5 keybinds) has been increased.
3. Infinite CC (crowd control) chain removed. : Prevented infinite CC combos by improving the defender's recovery speed.
[table] [tr] [td] Developer Comments:
After monitoring the players’ strategies during the last test, we noticed that most people didn’t utilize the Sneak Attack. We are hoping this will change with the improvement we’ve made to the Sneak Attack system. We will continue to monitor user tendencies to correctly adjust the game balance.
[/td] [/tr] [/table]
1. New character added - Gyeonjo : Gyeonjo is a beast melee tank character that is extremely effective in neutralizing single targets.
2. Basic gestures added. : Simple communication can now be done through basic gestures.
[table] [tr] [td] Developer Comments:
We will continue creating different characters. Prepare to meet new characters in the near future!
[/td] [/tr] [/table]
1. The overall damage balance of all the characters has been adjusted.
2. Game balance adjustments : Adjusted the shrinking speed of the barrier : Significantly reduced barrier damage : The first stage of the barrier is activated at the start of the game : Reduced fall damage : Added experience gain when killing someone in PvP (Kilbuff is still applied as before) : Resurrection time/cost reduced. 100% of HP is now recovered once resurrected. : Increased attack power and experience gain when entering the Purple Zone.
[table] [tr] [td] Developer Comments:
After the last test, we received a lot of feedback about character balance. Our decision was to nerf Jun and Mumyung. Other characters will also receive changes to match the overall balance of the game. We will continue to utilize our users' feedback to improve the game's balance.
[/td] [/tr] [/table]
1. Game Optimization : Game Client Optimization : Improved server latency
The most feedback we received during the last test was about optimization of the game. I would like to apologize to all of the game testers for playing in rather uncomfortable conditions. Although there was a very brief period between first and second CBT, we focused all of our resources on creating a better optimization. We will continue to analyze players’ feedback to create a game enjoyable for everyone.

We hope to meet you in Hunter's Arena on April 22. Thank you.

#7 Hunter's Arena: Legends Alpha Test Feedback
Greetings Hunters,
Last October we held an Alpha test which led to a series of internal discussions regarding all the feedback we gathered from players during the test. We are now working towards improving our game accordingly.
We would like to share with you our team’s vision on how to improve Hunter’s Arena: Legends.
Improving optimization
We want many people to enjoy Hunter’s Arena, which makes it one of our main goals to make various improvements so that the game will run smoothly on a wide range of computer specs. Our goal is to continue optimizing the game even after the launch.
Adding variety to combat
Hunter's Arena is a game where people battle each other by exchanging attack and defense moves. However, when it came to mass battles that involved more than 2 players, many claimed the combat is somewhat frustrating. Thus, we will improve the combat system by making it much more dynamic and strategic during mass battles.
Faster & more engaging combat
The skills' animation delay will be reduced. This will provide a faster & more fluid combat experience as well as better micro-control during the battle along with mind-games against your opponent.
Increasing tension during battles
One of the most exciting things in Battle Royale games is the rising tension among players. Based on the feedback we got, we will improve the gameplay environment to be much more focused while maintaining a high level of tension throughout the gameplay:
The central village will no longer be the final destination. This will encourage a more strategic playstyle in every match.
To make the most of the current large map, we will add a lot more content & things to do.
No more one-dimensional combat style, players will be able to choose from various battle styles according to their skills and preferences.
Also, we have been notified of various bugs and graphics related issues. All of those are being tackled and improved. We will do our best to improve the game based on your feedback.
The game contains elements from different genres, and it is our mission to make you enjoy all of those elements while playing our game. We hope to see you all in the revamped version of Hunter's Arena.
