The First Descendant fans disappointed update 1.2.6 doesn’t revert horrible character nerf

Fans of The First Descendant are disappointed that the latest update, version 1.2.6, does not undo an unpopular character adjustment made after its recent overhaul, which was successful.

The First Descendant fans want Luna nerf reverted

In update 1.2.4, Nexon delivered the following rework for Luna:

  • Stage presence:
    • Improved Luna’s unique weapon usability and note failure penalties with animations
  • Passionate Stage, Relaxing Act, Delightful Stage:
    • Improved cooldown application and overall skill cooldowns
    • Enhanced Skills now allow to move on a disk-shaped stage

In the makeover for Luna, not just the appearance changed but also the enhancements she received stayed effective during the whole time, even when she wasn’t using her unique weapon. However, it seems this was unintended as in update 1.2.5, Nexon “Fixed an issue where disabling Luna’s Unique Weapon didn’t get rid of the Exciting Performance, Relaxing Performance, and Cheerful Performance buffs”.

Supporters have expressed their desire for the ongoing boosts to return, however, unfortunately, the adjustment hasn’t been reversed in version 1.2.6 yet. It might be undone later on, but as of now, no definite information has been shared about it.

On Reddit, some fans allege that Nexon intentionally weakened Luna’s redesign to primarily entice players to prefer playing as Ines instead. Others have found the initial rework of Luna amusing and criticized its design, while questioning Luna’s overall redesign due to the inconsistency that her boosting effect ceases when she holsters her weapon. The fans generally agree that this aspect of Luna’s redesign doesn’t make logical sense.

Additionally, we anticipate them to share a sneak peek of the eagerly awaited hot-spring skins.
