Celestial Power Revisions
- With Game Update 45, we have made improvements to Celestial DPS. Celestial's advanced mechanic is still based on performing Celestial Combos. However, the abilities will now deal more damage when performed immediately after a multi-input Celestial Combo. To match all other advanced mechanics and weapon mastery, the Celestial Combos, while in Damage Role, now inflict and become vulnerable to counter mechanics. Specific changes are outlined in the notes below.
