### Important Updates

1. Improved Personal Kekkai Toppa rules:
	* Improved Personal Kekkai Toppa target level matching rules, so that matching rules and target medals are related to win rate in kekkai battles.
	* Lowered target matching level threshold, so level of target lowers easier, at the same time lowering attacker target matching level threshold, i.e. level 50 player can get matched with level 44 kekkai as the lowers.This will affect the data of players, so all kekkai will have 3 orders to begin with
	* Raised number of rewarded orders for high-order targets, as well as improved interface display of orders, so that the displayed number of orders will be the orders gained after success
	* Improved tempo through Koinobori:Slightly raised maximum health limit at the star.
Slightly lowered heal and shield effects for both sides.
Will quickly raise the damage and quickly lower the heal and shield effects for both sides, every turn.
	* Guild Jinja now has three new items: +15% damage dealt during kekkai toppa, -15% damage sustained, +8 speed. Price will be 400-500 Guild Orders.
	* Lowered daily mission requirement for victories against kekkai from 3 to 2.
	* Raised Kekkai Toppa ranking rewards:1-10: 250 orders, 30 skin tickets, 100K gold
11-100: 200 orders, 30 skin tickets, 50K gold
101-1000: 100 orders, 15 skin tickets, 30K gold
1001-10000: 50 orders, 5 skin tickets, 10K gold
>=10001: 30 orders, 5K gold

Mystery Amulet: 480 -> 320
Mystery Amulet: 120 -> 100
Mystery Amulet: 50 -> 30
Mystery Amulet: 150 -> 120
Designer perspective:
Kekkai toppa is a offline PVP method, which allows people to get acquainted with the workings of PVP and have fun with different formations.
However, due to some issues, they cause the current personal kekkai toppa to have problems like "new players are dominated by enemies with high speed."
To attempt to solve this problem, we improved the tempo of battle, as well as lowering the difficulty to begin, at the same time giving more rewards for hard kekkai.
To lower the difficulty, the Jinja has more buffs, the victory requirement has been lowered, the ranking rewards have been raised, and the shop prices have been lowered, all to improve the experience.
We hope these adjustments will bring a better experience, and will continue to improve until a fair balance is reached.
