Magma 3 Drops Adjustments
For awhile Magma 3 has felt "not worth it" and there are some other issues where the drops that do feel good put you overweight very quickly so they weren't able to be buffed.
I've simply turned most of the common drops into bundles and then upped drop rate of Magma Essence in general for more rerolling fun.
This has also opened up some item slots on mobs allowing me to add more drops to the mobs to make them even more valuable since we are limited to a certain amount of items per mob.
All containers weight 0 so you can farm longer without the need for a Kafra card as much.

Soul Linker/Ascetic Adjustments
Based on some feedback, we are making a few adjustments to Soul Linker/Ascetic's stacking for Unleashed Spirit to make it feel smoother in play.
1.) Orb stacks now apply as Soul Linker again. They are simply applied to a monster for each time they are hit with Esma.
2.) Monsters with orb stacks now take 2.5% more damage per orb stack from the Soul Linker/Ascetic that applied them.
3.) Unleashed Spirit's base duration changed to 3/6/10/15 seconds, based on number of Spirit stacks when used.
4.) Hitting an enemy with 4 orb stacks increases duration of Unleashed Spirit by 15 seconds.
5.) Orb stacks are no longer consumed when increasing duration of Unleashed Spirit. However, Unleashed Spirit's duration can only be increased once while its active.
6.) During Unleashed Spirit, every other Esma apply an orb stack to the enemy instead of every Esma.
This can all sound a bit confusing, but what this means is simply that you are not punished if the monster you are currently hitting does not have 4 orb stacks when you cast Unleashed Spirits. Now you can simply get your own stacks, cast Unleashed Spirit, and then if you hit an enemy with 8 Esmas (so 4 orb stacks are applied), you can then increase your duration.
Generally the gameplay will be the same, but now it shouldn't feel as punishing for small mistakes.
7.) Soul Ascetic's now immune to all damage while casting Wrath of the Fallen.
8.) Wrath of the Fallen now properly roots and hits all targets within its intended range.
Adjustments
1.) Taekwon Mission bonuses are now across the entire master account. For the bonuses to apply you still need Taekwon Mission learned.
- To migrate existing progress, the character with the most completed missions across your master account was chosen as the source. Missions and bonuses from other characters on the same master account are not carried over.
2.) Added the command @tkmissiondisplay, which will make the current missions progress display above the characters head when killing monsters (similar to kill quest display).
3.) Added @tkmissiondisplay to @settings to enable it on login.
4.) Added new random options showing up and option to reroll again on all reroll NPCs.
5.) All Jewels (item ids 718-729) have had their weight lowered from 10 > 2.
6.) Removed skill requirements from Dawn Break.
7.) Devotion effect is now paused while the devotee is in stasis from Kaizel or Aegis of the Immortal.
Bug Fixes
1.) Grand Cross now properly works with leech again.
2.) Fixed not being receiving Sweets Festival Coins if in a party with "Party Share" option on item sharing.
3.) Monsters on cloned Airship Assault map now properly drop loot.
4.) Heaven's Kick can now properly be auto-targeted after Solar Explosion when hit hits multiple targets.
5.) Miracle now doesn't keep debuffs on the player when dying.
