Changes to Area Attack Skills
1) Physical/magical offensive area skills used by players are now applied to limited number of targets. However, during PvP, all players within the area will be affected. The skill effect is limited to 20 targets and it is unaffected by enchantment. The area skills of monsters/summons are unaffected.

2) To distinguish classes specializing in polearm type weapons from other classes, the physical attack ability of Polearm weapons will now be applied differently.
Based on whether or not having learned Polearm Mastery skill and whether or not having completed the 2nd class transfer even if having learned the skill, the Polearm weapon’s area attack ability will be applied differently:
- Without Polearm Mastery skill – approximately 30% of previous ability
With Polearm Mastery skill but before completing the 2nd class transfer – approximately 60% of previou sability
With learning Polearm Mastery skill level 9 after completing the 2nd class transfer – same as previous
When equipping Polearm-type weapons, passive related skills will be indicated in the passive skill window.
