Experience Optimizations
Class
Increased the plantable quantity for the Gardener class in the Wilderness. The number of outdoor plantable spots per Gardener class has been increased from 50 to 100.
Cosmetics
1. Optimized the trail VFX and SFX of the vehicle skin "Shadow Trace".
2. Optimized the preset body type parameters of the male template in Face Templates.
3. The Face (face shape/body type, etc.) and Outfits (fashion/backpack, etc.) interfaces have been merged into the Presets entry in the Cosmetics interface. You can now switch directly between Outfits and Face editing without returning to the Cosmetics interface.
4. Outfits now support saving the currently active Fashion Trait and Standing Action configuration.
5. Optimized the sort rules of the Makeup interface. Unlocked Makeup will now be sorted to the front.
6. Adjusted the function of the Floor Mirror in the territory. It will now directly enter the editing interface of the currently active Face Preset.
7. To allow Metas to manage cosmetics combinations more conveniently and consistently, we have merged hairstyle dye data into the Outfits Presets for storage (current Outfits already include hairstyle information) and no longer bind it to Face Presets. After the update, newly saved Face Preset preview images will no longer include hairstyle and hairstyle dye data.
8. Optimized the coloring effects of character eyebrows, beards, and eyelashes.
9. Abyssal Touch Set adds a new tentacle storage form:
After the update, Metas who own the Abyssal Touch Set can go to the Actions page to equip "Abyssal Touch: Transformation". After playing this action from the Wheel in the Wilderness, the Abyssal Touch Set Top will switch to the mechanical tentacle transformation form. Play the action again to recover. This form-switching action works for any level and gender of the Abyssal Touch Set.
10. Added Fashion Traits for the Music Frenzy and Extreme Heatwave Sets.
Events
Adjusted the redeem rewards of the Astral Dewlets event. To better suit Metas' Explore needs, "Sanity Gummy" in the original redemption has now been replaced with "Malt Ale."
First Person Mode
Optimized the animation transitions and VFX when gathering trees and minerals in First Person Mode.
Deviation
Optimized the skill descriptions of Combat Deviations and added explanations of the special statuses caused by skills. Metas can now more clearly understand the specific values and combat abilities of each Deviation.
Territory
Optimized the model performance of the "Coffee Maker" facility in territory and the "Coffee Maker" facility refreshed in the Wilderness.
Item
1. Greatly increased the corrosion speed when the corrosive agent is activated, making it easier for Metas to use the corrosive agent to craft spoiled dishes.
2. Optimized the description text of the Bait Box, making it easier for Metas to understand the specific rules.
3. Expanded the mutagens available for fusing the Hydronaut Fish · Evergreen trait. You can now use Salmon [Cosmoglow], Longnose Gar [Quicksilver], Mackerel [Jade], Arowana [Iridescence], Carp [Shimmergold], and Sea Bass [Crimson] to fuse the corresponding Evergreen trait Hydronaut Fish.
4. Added an unlocked indicator for formulas, making it easier for Metas to determine the unlock status of formulas during trading.
5. To prevent losses from attempting to obtain batteries when the battery max limit has been reached, the following actions cannot be performed when the battery max limit is reached: selling items in NPC shops, face-to-face battery trading, claiming battery earnings from online trading, and obtaining battery earnings from vending machines.
Settings
1. Added a "120 Frame Rate Mode" switch to the graphics settings options on console. When your display device supports it, enabling this option provides a more stable and smooth frame rate experience.
2. Added text size settings options for chat text and subtitle text on PC and console. You can go to Settings - Graphics - Font to complete the setup.
Others
1. Now, when using a controller on console, items with a quantity of 1 can now be stored or retrieved one press at a time.

Bug Fixes
Cosmetics
1. Fixed an issue where the Plum Shadow Bath furniture item could not be used by three or more players simultaneously.
2. Fixed an issue where dye did not work on the Golden Shore Pool furniture item.
Territory
1. Fixed an occasional lag/frame drop issue when Metas approached the territory, moved within the territory, or teleported to the territory.
2. Fixed an issue where territory construction could not use supplies from storage boxes in some cases.
3. Fixed an issue where the wallpaper category displayed incorrectly for roof structures in Cosmetics Edit Mode.
4. Fixed an issue where resource consumption was incorrectly calculated when multiple territories were connected and shared storage permissions. After the update, when Metas build in their own territory and move the [target building] to an adjacent friend's territory to construct it, they will consume their own materials.
Deviation
To ensure Metas have the most accurate information for tactical combos and calculating gains, we have conducted a dedicated review and correction of the skill descriptions for certain Deviations. Please note: the following changes do not include any numerical reduction, so Metas can rest assured.
1. Fixed an incorrect description for Voodoo Doll's ultimate and applied a minor enhancement. The actual Status DMG Multiplier has been increased from 200% Psi Intensity + 10 to 250% Psi Intensity (based on the effect at Skill Rating 5), and the text has been corrected (the original text stated a Status DMG Multiplier of 500%).
2. Fixed an incorrect description for Soul Summoner's ultimate. The Weapons Vulnerability text in the description has been corrected from 40% to the actual 34% (based on the effect at Skill Rating 5).
