GPO dev tracker: January 2025

The developers often say things in the official Discord that never make the patch notes: a drop rate, why something was nerfed, when the next update lands. We collect every message from the GPO team, keep the ones that tell players something about the game, and show the question they were answering. Each line links to the original message.

Tori full form heal is cancellable and gets reduced regeneration in arena.

i just think it's really weird to disable modes for zoans when that's like their whole thing
?
venom:
buddha:
wait this is just straight up untrue
promise it's not when u need 80% and half ur kit never hits unless ur fighting a robot
tori heal in full form is cancellable but even if it was adjusted
they will still out heal u
that's half the point of tori
and u get reduced regen in arena
:ezzah:
the problem isn't the heals
it's how long mode lasts for how little effort they have to put in
this can also be true
lol

kxroharuOther#general

The suggestions channel was closed because it was used for bypassing chat filters, and suggestions go directly to phoeyu.

there's a reason it closed
it was being used more for bypassing chat to send slurs and nsfw then actual suggestions at one point
:frenchjoy:
realistically suggestions r the problem
i have most of those handled
and they all get sent directly to phoeyu anyway
they rn't
it's auto modded
that's not the point tho
the point is what would pho gain from talking in general chat that's he's not already getting
already suggested
ok
on the doc
whether or not he adds
up to him
i asked him directly as well, he said he could do
:ezzah:
we'll see
not till the game is closed
spam ping uncool bro

kxroharuOther#general

A player was banned for chat behavior.

ok banned him
aab u gotta chill with the caps
lol
💀
ion owe u a response
automatic
yur np

kxroharuMechanics#general

Players queue around 500 to 700 for best queue times, and no win streak is shown to reduce early leaving.

say we redo matchmaking how does that change the "skilless" builds
:what:
pho doesn't need to give up ownership lol
i just coast around 500 - 700 for best queue times but no shitters
i just win then leave
💀
not having a streak makes it less likely for people to just leave my game before it even starts as well

kxroharuMechanics#general

The developer says combat is parry based, unlike the lazy parry systems in other games.

not gonna leak anything but it is parry based just not in the lazy way the other games like dw and t://s did it

kxroharuRelease timing#general

The developer says release timing will line up with sneak peeks and showcases.

there r a few out but we prefer to wait till the sneaks and showcases line up with the actual release of the game lol
ftr it's not my game i just have a heavy hand in it's development
the combat in my game is not like any of the others on the platform rn

kxroharuMechanics#general

GPO's original design added harder bosses, limited logia bars, strong haki, and a skill-based combat system.

gpo was a shot in the dark, taking what blox fruits was already doing and making it harder? but adding updated visuals and concepts to balance out the expierence? like bosses that were actually hard, limited logia bars, strong haki, hard to find fruits, strong fighting styles and a skill based combat system even the bandits could use on you
stat for stat concept for concept gpo no diffed the hell out of blox fruits in the beginning with those changes to the system
it's just no one expect that to be all gpo added
lol
it's bad cos blox fruits is adding more rpg elements then we r and faster despite taking actual straight up years to update
first sea revamp alr game bro
that was it
that was phos big plan
small tutorial and a face lift
blox fruits has the same kind of dev team we have
if not more official devs
blox fruits is not made by just 2 devs bruh
rell seas has more then 2 devs as well
im a dev for rell seas, we've quite the team on our hands
it's way more then 2
💀

kxroharuTrading & economy#general

Payouts is a shared revenue system requiring a player to have more total hours on the game than others to be profitable.

premium payouts hits pretty hard but payouts is a shared revenue system u need said player to have more hours on your game then others in total for it to be profittable
whenever pho adds it
it's been on the doc i send him every time for like a year and a half now
lol
like
hold on

kxroharuMechanics#general

Players without buso cannot hit the player regardless of level.

no, if they don't have buso they can't hit u no matter the level
but u have to train your bar so it lasts longer
i don't

kxroharuMechanics#general

Buso bar regenerates over time and gets stronger when it refills after running out.

all i could get him to do was in combat and out of combat changes
:ezzah:
sorry
the point is to train it
yeah when it runs out and fills back up it gets stronger
nothing in game teaches you this so i can't blame u for not knowing

kxroharuMechanics#general

Combat nerfs were used as an alternative to the requested changes, which the developer Pho declined.

no
i tried for this
and pho didn't wanna do it
so i had to find other ways
like nerfs for things specifically in combat
n stuff
ye

kxroharuOther#general

Dev role is a badge with no responsibilities; about 32 individuals hold it, with 7-8 working on updates.

ye
the dev title is more like a badge it doesn't imply any actual responsibilities or privileges
we have devs with the role that haven't done anything in like a year or more
it's why we have 32 individuals with the dev role
but at max like 7-8 devs have worked on the updates in the last year
+ commission devs without the dev role
💀
if ur working with them yeah
if ur not
u don't know they exist unless u ask who made such an such
no one knew who made gold except for the people that worked with that dev
i had to ask to find out
lol
im busy working on the game in otherways
i don't rlly care about the surface level content from a dev pov
i play the game so the surface level stuff is trivial at best cos odds r whatever is dropping i wont use or grind
so i've just been focusing on working with pho on quality of life suggestions and balance checks
seems infinitely more important to keeping the game up
nah i have faith someone could easily just take my place with being a link between pho and the community
:HUHHH:
that's what faith is for
maybe not but that's a direct result of not having a sense of responsibility, if u treat ur devs like they rn't there till u ask them to do something they rn't going to feel connected to the game's progress especially if they don't play
this could easily change if someone like me wasn't alr in the role

kxroharuRoadmap#general

Update schedules vary by dev team, and the new game is still a couple of years out.

hi bean
😄
nice to see u interacting man
they treating u well?
LOL
im mixed and i haven't even gotten that yet
they like u
iron fist, hulk, mag, and storm r my mains i have adeadly adam warlock when i flex strat
iron fist my highest hours followed by hulk
jeff is fine
bruh
yeah star lord is great
yeah she's overtuned rn which is why i've been playing tank more this season
doesn't feel rewarding to win on storm rn
i was playing her pre-buff
so now i only play her when my friend is on his tank main Thor
:ezzah:
thank you bro
thor is awesome
glad bucky got buffed
he actually survives now
lol
before he was only good for ult and trapping with his hook
cos he was so easy to dive and kill
ik u guys know nothing about game development
but that game "gpo2" or whatever its going to end up being isn't dropping for another couple years if it wants to be anything worth playing
:pray: ur putting too much emphasis on the statement of "new game"
update schedule is case by case basis
life happens
there r times when gpo was updating month by month
it just depends on the dev team
and it's a different one for the new game
we don't but I know even if he started back in update 5 it's still a couple years out just off reworks to the systems alone because of roblox updates
nope i didn't ask

kxroharuRelease timing#general

A mini update is coming soon, and the second game is not expected for a couple of years.

tenor.com/view/daddy-daddy-japanese-japanese-…
say what u will
gl sleepin on that tho
lol
tried this alr, pho hates doing it
dudes asking if stuff from an entirely different game is going to transfer to the brand new game
tenor.com/view/clown-crying-sad-gif-17901663
im crying bro
LOOOOL
so anyway mini update soon
:frenchjoy:
same people who say the next gpo update is going to come in 2027 think the second game is going to come in anything less then a couple years
actual tards
:skull1:
tenor.com/view/intese-moyai-gif-21328189
:ezzah: u'd have to ask pho

kxroharuOther#general

Ptera was originally designed as a legendary Zoan, later changed to mythical with lunarian powers by Pho.

this sentence almost killed me
but if u must know i wrote the original kit for ptera to be a legendary, because we needed a legendary zoan
pho turned it into a mythical with lunarian powers
simple as that rlly

kxroharuMechanics#general

Vote kick will not be added to GPO.

instant abuse
can't wait for lil timmy who was just lagging to be vote kicked from the game, or the sweaty pve farmer to jump in br with their 10 alts to vote kick people 1 by 1
not adding vote kick to gpo gang
yo

kxroharuBalance#general

A dodge ability was nerfed to 5 charges, with no arena regen until dodges are used and a 25 second cooldown.

it just got nerfed to 5 and it doesn't regen in arena till all the dodges r used up then it goes on a 25 second cooldown, what else do u want from me lol

kxroharuMechanics#general

The evasive dodge is not removed and can be combined with combos to grab opponents out of evasive.

they did not get rid of this, the evasive is so easy to bait and combo off of it makes grabbing someone out of evasive in gpo look hard to do
💀
it's actually got quite a bit of progress that i could see a release by Q3
like i said 4 of my friends work on the game lol
pho only recently figured out fruit combat is cool
ur only hope might be bari v2
💀
:Bruh:
bro turned zushi into yami and thought we wouldn't notice
Fujitora getting some new screen time in the reanimation is nice tho

kxroharuMechanics#general

Geppo trapping has been removed, though getting hit by ice stomp during geppo still knocks players to the ground.

it may get another nerf but it's a global nerf not a specific nerf just one that fixes a broken gameplay mechanic that's gone on long enough
lol
nah
geppo trapping is gone
is it not?
nvm
m1 trapping is gone* i think getting hit with ice stomp during geppo still just makes u fall to the ground
sup
no bruh
yeah
by proxy hie's stun will be nerfed
but it's not a direct nerf to the fruit
i did this once, it doesn't end well for u
trust
leaving a dying game for a dead one is insane
LOL
nah
nah my homies worked on the game
but now they r working on ps2
they do, but Shanks has done more with Gryphon then Roger's done with Ace
according to owopp nothing is transferring
they r remaking the whole game from scratch

kxroharuBalance#general

The dev says a new small meteor daze will not be made and that Zushi buffs are limited to avoid overbuffing.

do u rlly want another daze?
actually a skill this big daze might be better then knock back cos then we wouldn't have a second paw ult in br :thonk:
im not making the small meteor daze dude
😭
dnc how easy it is to perfect block
too much trouble with how easy it is to over buff zushi
for the 1 and a half people who use zushi?
no bro

kxroharuBalance#general

Tori's healing and full form duration are considered overtuned, while Tori is not overpowered overall.

eh, tori isn't overpowered at all. healing and mode duration is tho because several things in game prove that this is the case. full forms last way too long in combat, and healing is unchecked as hell in open world, ranked, br u name it.
like tori on it's own with these global checks to full form duration and healing nerfs is actually severally underpowered for a mythical
so checks r put in place to keep it's edge if any of those changes come to the game
but so far
nothing
:ezzah:
it's literally only good off heals 💀 which is a reasonable complaint but most people aren't even losing to tori
they r just having really long matches against tori's high sustainability
imo, both seas just need a reasonably placed hub
i've always said this but people r so convinced that full form is insane
when its just the healing
like yea they hav the ult daze combo
once after that it's gone for 3 minutes
💀

kxroharuMechanics#general

There are cc events, but the main game has no character loss.

the hype is fine because they've actually shown the things people r hyped about to the fullest extent, it's not like the other games where it's over hyped and no one actually knows anything about the game at all
so it'll come back next movie i believe
they be trollin tho fr
i hate pullin up sneaks ping and it's a pile of actual horse shit
LOL
w trolls but bruh
nah there's cc events but the main game there's no character loss
:ohmygoodnessme: real
we had one, it was too laggy and they closed the game and never updated
tenor.com/view/barba-branca-gif-26177073
ahh response
there r a bunch planned but im not kidding when i say that pho has ignored the full mode changes for every fruit mode and all the tori balance checklist suggestions for 4 updates in a row now
:p
what else can i do but hope
nah more like a soft rework
there's been no planned tori nerfs for like a year now
rlx

kxroharuBalance#general

3SS is still overtuned when used with 80 or 100 M1 damage.

sup dude
yeah i know, tryna fix but pho might've listened too little too late
:ezzah: we'll see where it ends
lol
:ezzah:
no
the last 2 unban waves didn't even change the ccu
just added back more exploiters lol
i feel as though that's what im for
i play the game at a certain caliber, so i can strain out most of the really dog shit suggestions
not all im not perfect or like the best player or anything close to that
but
i try to give EVERYONE a voice but not everyone needs a hand in the actual changes
some people just wanna watch the world burn or buff their builds
we invite those people's opinions but we do not have to accept them
lol
alr on the list
3ss is still overtuned if u just rock 100 or 80 m1 dmg
it'd be balanced if it wasn't able to switch between 2 other styles and use a devil fruit at the same time
it's still overtly strong if used correctly

kxroharuMechanics#general

Fighting styles and weapons can match devil fruit power scale, so players should use all three.

not the same thing, fighting styles and weapons can be the same power scale as a devil fruit in this game so you're advised to use all 3 unless you have an amped version of one of the 3, this is not the case in other games the scaling is WAY higher for fruits then anything else u can even do whole matches without a sword or a fighting style and still win, etc etc
also even if we ignore that, fruit battlegrounds exists:
:facepalm: so it's wrong regardless
and u think i care about ur lc?
tenor.com/view/daddy-daddy-japanese-japanese-…
media.discordapp.net/attachments/111321975002…
it is you should talk to roblox about it
swiming in the water is not a war build
more on the way
tenor.com/view/asian-dance-tan-suit-daddy-dad…
you'll find out
i have plans for impel ur just gonna hafta wait
it's also the most counterable skill in the kit:
:frenchjoy:
geppo once and they miss
even if ur 5 hp
they miss
stop it
be a real player
lol
i just went up against a venom user bro was FIENDING for the full charge block breaker on spit like i'd just stand there waiting
:frenchjoy: jfc
adding a new rarity is not going to fix anything
lets just get that out of the way
a better player is not going to be able to speed up the time it takes to full charge venom's spit dude
suh
i have a third off to the side as well
and a laptop
what
u can buy a splitter
but i suggest just buying 2 vgas
yes
yeah only a vga can do this
if u have 2 hdmi's it'll only pick up 1 display
🫡 make sure it's HQ
if u consistently get 300 ping why r u
pvping
it also has an excessive stun for a barrage, if buffed any further its going to be used for other things it wasn't intended for
like a free set up for longer start up skills
they don't win every game
there's like 2 states with regions right on the border or near it
chicago and newyork
u just have to live in those areas
i have a friend that lives in canada bro has this issue
for?
uh
no?

kxroharuBalance#general

Yomi extender has the same cooldown as other extenders, and base fruits no longer need a true EX to gain bar faster.

the yomi extender is the same cd as any other
also gomu very much good, and if u were paying attention to the previous post
i was replying to this
:what:
the mode is apart of the FRUIT?!?!?!?
:facepalm:
the base doesn't need a true ex anymore, you can hit the barrage in a normal combo now and gain ur bar faster
then the bazooka gives like 10% on it's own with a lower cd then the barrage
:dead:
having no high dmg skills hasn't stopped a fruit from being good before
case and point: hie, ito, kage?
just to name a few lol
hie was meta before it got it's extender
:hmm:
not just with staff
it's been meta since release
that's what meta means
top tier choice for any situation because there's nothing better??
someone is late to the party
hie has a true stun extender gang blocking doesn't always work if ur mid stun
:frenchjoy:
i do win, just doesn't change the facts
either way
when pho gets to it
i have a suggestion for all freeze true stun skills in the game
:ezzah:
how is this stopping them from block breaking u with a weapon or fighting style
this is GRAND PIECE ONLINE no one fights with just a fruit
u can take that up with phoeyu
did they win
case closed
just because you can doesn't mean u should
u can try fighting me with just mochi v2 or pika v2 all day long but u better have another weapon equipped
:what:
that's a combo not just the fruit

kxroharuBalance#general

Ken haki is not being removed from ranked; the issue was multiple guard breaks used in quick succession.

Most builds in the game should have no problem breaking Ken, the issue isn’t Ken or it’d be removed from the ranked experience like it is for
Battle Royale, the issue was too many dodges for no reason
u guys don’t eat them
The problem was doing it multiple times when Ken haki has a shorter cd then a lot of guard breaks especially the ones u use to combo start, extend or combo end for dmg or utility
They are
Where’s the mero users? Gomu? Yomi? Spring?
u guys
Don’t.
Eat.
Them.
Bug
Sure in BR

kxroharuBalance#general

Gomu bazooka is a block breaker that turns off future sight; it was buffed in startup several updates ago and will not be unnerfed.

ok
:what:
not gonna get it unnerfed tho
All block breakers turn off future sight, gomu bazooka is a block breaker
It’s also been buffed start up wise several updates ago

kxroharuMechanics#general

Water walk does not work for fruit users at all, not only during combat.

wait huh i thought u were talking about the water walk dude
i never said it was only in combat it just doesn't work for fruit users period

kxroharuMechanics#general

Water walk is removed in combat for fruit users, and oxygen drains faster during combat.

it's only in combat :what:
up to pho
from the bottom of the ocean?
do u know how long it takes to sink to the bottom of the ocean without a mobility skill?
u got tp'd right above the water and drowned right?
it only removes the water walk in combat
say sum else
last i checked u can't shambles the ocean floor dude
:what: so the range is irrelevant, im saying how long it takes to get on the ocean floor
is the duration u have to get out of most sight lines
in most case they wouldn't be
u cannot shambles with the ocean floor.
burn bazooka:
it is not an object you can trade places with, are yall ok?
:HUHHH:
irb
it's not a projectile on full charge btw, it's a hitscan
cyborg
x?
nah gang
the ult
:pepeBusiness:
you'll know before and after, bigger changes r more likely to be with full updates
smaller ones will just happen
wut r u on about
up to pho
my 2nd to last br game had a water spawn, had to spit out my suke :[
i didn't lie if it broke that's a bug when i tested it literally yesterday it worked just fine
:ezzah: mochi smochi
idk it only shows 26 or so for me
idk im not a mod
with pika?
:hmm:

kxroharuMechanics#general

Water walk is removed only during ragdoll, and fishmen still breathe longer underwater than other races.

fishmen still breath longer underwater even in combat then normal races and still swim faster, it's just they don't get an INSANE advantage over other races with the ability to survive being thrown or ragdolled into the water and hide in the water with their increased swim speed
it's only on ragdoll and it's only during the duration of said ragdoll not every skill that knocks you out will drown you, i have no idea what ur talking about. u can still fight on the water u just have to be more careful
it's much harder for an ope user to do this now
i suggest winning the m1 trade and getting off the water then

kxroharuBalance#general

Magu and Hie keep water walk but lose it while actively fighting; Pika also received a nerf.

fishmen didn't get buffed and pvp on the water was one of the biggest unbalanced battlegrounds in the game. magu and hie haven't lost their ability to walk on water just the ability to walk on water while actively fighting and not blocking and still getting away. pika just caught a nerf too lol
so yeah
all i said to bro was ok
💀
cos if he's not reading the actual changes and testing them, why would i say anything else
dk not my jurisdiction gang
it's almost as if that's how it should've been from the get go?

kxroharuMechanics#general

Being ragdolled disables water walk until the ragdoll ends.

ok
ig that could be cool
they rn't in the shop rn
i literally didn't ignore it? nice bait kiddo
💀
skull reaction indeed
what...?
WHAT
no
bro is just talking about how getting ragdolled disables your water walk till you're out of ragdoll

kxroharuBalance#general

Hie's ultimate scales with devil fruit stat, and only Hiken scaling was increased.

are you ok? it literally SCALES off devil fruit stat as in it gets bigger?
:dead:
just say u have no idea whats going on, its ok bro
its ok
:ohmygoodnessme: the ult hurts? holy hell
since the dawn of time
ur trolling
this is on purpose, only hiken scaling was increased
who is this for, "nobody uses hie" ???
LOL
bacon u used to be better at this
:ezzah: washed
it do be like that
LOOOOOL bro still think legendary fruits have value
tenor.com/view/metro-man-super-speed-goodbye-…
no
i don't trade

kxroharuBalance#general

Fishmen swim and breath underwater mechanics were changed; fishmen did not receive a HP buff.

ok im back
no
i did talk to pho about adding a hp buff to fishmen tho
nah, ran out of stam against a hie yoru with ice curse
tenor.com/view/daddy-daddy-japanese-japanese-…
i ran out of stam cos of my weapon barrage
💀
i had 250 in stam stat but i was fighting before circle closed and my ult took quite a bit
faster swim and u still breath longer under water it just runs out faster if ur in combat and u can no longer swim with a df
fishmen had TOO many passives
so u can do what exactly, take longer to be eaten by sharks?
u can't count
i know this now
thx for that info
i just couldn't find that many stam items
:ezzah:
not going to be fighting in the water as much
the rate at which u lose oxygen in combat is substantial, and hie and magu users lose water walk when ragdolled
that's literally a free burn bazooka hit lol
no one cares :what:
no
block please
mera has the lowest scale out of every legendary in the game
the only thing that puts it up is the burn and that got nerfed
lol
it's not the fruit
its u
hie has one of the highest scaling in the game period
lol
it's supposed to be "strong" it's a legendary, but over powered? in what universe other then BATTLE ROYALE could mera ever
it's also got the only ult in the game that scales with df
like
its wicked
yeah, im the dev with more hours in combat and wins in arena and br then u telling u
...u suck at the game

kxroharuMechanics#general

Players can no longer choose pure black haki; the color change removed that option.

💀
The only people with black we’re given said color, I had pure black haki before the color change
nah u can make it fully black now
or fully white

kxroharuBalance#general

Balance changes come from community suggestions compiled by one developer, and Pho decides what gets added.

it's on the list
i alr do
thx, but not an admin
there is no balance team it's just community suggestions, a document organized and curated by me, and then pho tries to add what he can
pho alr said he could do it, i just have to remind him sometimes
i alr told pho he's workin on it

kxroharuRoadmap#general

Planned updates include fruit inventory revert, bank island trading, slots, ship combat revamp, dungeon rework, and world bosses.

i'd rather do reverts to fruit inventory after updating several more interesting ways to obtain and trade fruits in game, via bank island/npcs, slots, ship combat revamp, dungeon rework, world boss events etc etc
that's the goal anyway we'll see where it ends

kxroharuTrading & economy#general

LC and MC were removed from Impel until further notice.

💀
#kuros-corner
prolly but can't say we didn't try
:HUHHH:
keyword tried
:aware:
stop playing
naw
if the game is actually closed or 0 players, i'll probably just put my focus on rell seas
but until then i refuse to surrender
lc and mc have been removed from impel till further notice
why u might ask? to lower the profit of exploiters and black marketing i'd assume

kxroharuRoadmap#general

Fruit kits are no longer being made.

we're not making the kits anymore that's what happened
some of the fruits that r coming out i wrote the kit, they do cool shit like this
👍
no

kxroharuMechanics#general

M1 trading is possible in arena.

nope
i think so
no
that's on the list as well
it was actually the first haki suggestion i added
cos i often have to turn my vanity on my outfit on and off
because original character design
i ran arena and we can actually m1 trade now

kxroharuBalance#kuros-corner

Three-counter builds are removed and ASE now uses its own accessory slot.

yes this means no more 3 counter builds
i can see why that makes some of u upset LOL
a smaller change, but ase no longer takes up a slot for necklaces and now acts as it's own slot.
so u can have stats and flex at the same time
that's all im sharing for now, full list will be sent by pho when he's done
more changes in the future ill try to share some of those too

kxroharuRoadmap#general

Kraken is planned to be added back to the main game.

this is kind of the goal
stacking also caused lag tho since people we mass farming in public servers
so that's up to pho
but i'll see what i can do
valid idea
can just make a channel for kraken farming
no
it is not
💀
:what: it'll help keep exploiters out of main game when its added back

kxroharuMechanics#general

Kilo clears maps without ult charge, and damage scales with DF and height.

solid point
:frenchjoy:
damn paw not valid anymore?
:[
idk i think it's pretty stong
it has every type of skill in the game
tenor.com/view/bait-thats-bait-tom-hardy-mad-…
o ion care about value
would be nice to start over
but if i had to pick 1 fruit to stay
it'd be kilo
the goat
cos it's funnier then the other commons
never
pho skipped
:ezzah:
dk wut u want from me
gang
cos it still clears an entire map if ur high enough and requires no ult charge anymore
rlx
it's a common fruit
👍
it does
df and height effect the dmg
open world wars/flags

kxroharuBalance#general

Mink stun was not directly nerfed; it was affected by the M1 stun change.

if u have mink stun it still works
wut
i had plans to nerf mink stun as well actually
but i think mink stun got nerfed by proxy since m1 stun is back to normal
idk does the rarity even matter atp
there's mythical fruits
then uh
the rest

kxroharuBalance#general

The M1 stun change was added to the game after testing ended.

nah
o my fault
such a chill and cool dude*
u m1 then buffer the rapid thrust then click as fast as u can for the first m1 to line up then walk forward and continue the rest of the m1 string
nah i just like the word dude
i forgot the m1 change was done right after we stopped testing cos i asked pho last second to make sure it was added
didn't think it'd change m1 stun as well
it's untrue now

M1 stun was nerfed, so rapid thrust no longer works after the fourth M1 buffer.

@Pythix nvm
m1 stun nerfed so rapid isn't true after the 4th m1 buffer anymore
:skull1:

Remote bans exist in the game.

yes
this has been the case for a millenia in all pvp games ever
u can have as much hp as u want but if u can't use any skills
gg
tenor.com/view/gordon-ramsay-memes-gordon-ram…
there r remote bans yes
:what: this was never a feature
i'd coast 400-500
win a bit then int to stay in that elo range or queue times die
i rmbr when i queue'd to like 700 elo worst mistake of my life

The doffy is the leopard fruit, not the Lucci-Lucci no Mi.

no it just doesn't make any sense
it's not the lucci-lucci no mi fruit
it's the leopard fruit

kxroharuRelease timing#kuros-corner

Ken's kit was rewritten by the developers, and they are remaking it.

but yeah, i rewrote the whole kit so sweat and i could remake it, should've been more transparent about that 🫡

kxroharuRelease timing#kuros-corner

Leopard was not deleted but put on hold to redo its abilities after Kamishiki was added.

Okay, so just so we're clear, Leopard wasn't actually gotten rid of, deleted, or anything like that. It was just put on hold so they could redo its abilities after Kamishiki was added. This was to avoid it just being a furry version of the same set of powers.

It's going to be more about a leopard with superhuman enhancements instead of just copying Rob Lucci's abilities. Things are going smoothly with its development, by the way.

kxroharuRoadmap#general

Leopard was held back to rework its entire kit rather than release it as is.

i mean cherry picking is not that hard
lol
and yet the VERY FIRST MESSAGE ever with diamond in it is a want for the fruit
getting less vague yeah?
nothing happened to leopard, we held it back to rework the entire kit so that it wasn't just kamishiki but as a furry
but it's much cooler now as a result anyway
rokushiki skills r kind of boring lol
u guys always want something different a poll would be irrelevant
lol
probably shouldn't listen to non-officials

kxroharuRoadmap#general

Six fruits are currently in development.

lol maybe so but the point is to add multiple fruits not just 1
because you're always in combat in impel down
means 6 fruits r currently in development

kxroharuRoadmap#general

Six fruits are currently in development, not including v2s or commission-developer work.

bold is like priority if ur gonna get to it, red is like urgent would be great if added THIS update
basically, with the boss rework suggestion for dungeons it would be similar despite being wave based
i read this alr
im a fast reader i just don't respond sometimes lol
alr on the doc "Tori can now carry allies, "why not" ahhh suggestion"
the rest r questionable
too late for polls on that icl, there's like
hold on let me check
6 fruits in the pipeline not including v2s or anything pho might be doing with commission devs
lol
actually
alot of people have been asking for diamond since release

kxroharuRoadmap#general

Balance suggestions are in a balance doc, with bold and red items marking higher priority.

i mean he didn't gloss over them the last time he just didn't have much time for that one, and the one before that he added almost all of them
it's just there's a thing u should know about the balance doc
it's more then balance checks
there's 4 more pages under balance checks called
which is just a bunch of suggestions that could save the game if we did all of them
:ohmygoodnessme:
same bro, thank you for sticking with us even tho the relationship is abusive
u know the answer to this question
💀 it's basically a gpo rework by now
if all of them were added the game would completely different
they r added slowly every update
ironically this is one of the suggestions as a
the suggestions r labeled under wants and needs
a dungeon small revamp and dungeon reward fully reworked from the ground up
it's in needs but it's not in bold
there's suggestions in bold and suggestions in red

kxroharuRoadmap#general

Yuki is getting changes this season, and Tori Talons deal slashing damage.

did u translate this?
also yeah yuki is getting changes this season
u personified the fruit gangatron
ion think it has a gender
i'll consider soul cane buffs if u have yomi next season i know it's suffering a lil bit
it's unique dude doesn't mean it's wrong
english is very elastic
👍
:ezzah: tori talons does slashing dmg
:ohmygoodnessme:
planned
no
so the entire fruit has 0 armor and combat prowess as a mythical?
uh
nah im good bro
👍
rather go for the full form mode duration instead
tyvm
maybe
i'll do a bunch of gate crashes in trade hub if the balance checks r good
:what: start praying
story of my life
it's a universal target nerf
only for ranked tho (arena and br n such)
im aware infamy grinding is an issue with transformations but if i force feed pho suggestions will be forgotten
will try
insane statement, elaborate
that's on the document as well, but not cos people suck but cos exploiters r a pain in the ass lol
no
tori has a better chance getting a v2 now
lmao
i was NOT following the trade hub stuff that was happening
lol
not my job
it is not, it's 30% now and runs out faster then you think compared to the healing mode that with current tori can make u neigh immortal
ur losing ur mind
but that's ok
lol u'd think so
alr did that

kxroharuBugs & fixes#general

Players should clip bug reports and send them to the dev channel for Pho to review.

wow REALLY
never thought of that before
totally haven't suggested it to pho for a year or anything
lolll
should get right on that
whis, pythix, the latter yadah yadah blah blah
dude keeps forgetting the game he's playing
we don't do fun here gang
lol
wicked bug can u clip then send here #channel, ping me when sent i'll send it straight to pho
it will be getting one if the changes r added by pho
he always asks for a clip or he's less likely to check for it
:Royal: will neither confirm nor deny
icl im not touching magu or mera rn lol
there r bigger issues then the collective skill issue that is the gpo community
:dancin:
mera is good in literally 1 gamemode rn cos no one looks around them in br
sure u get hit by maybe 1 fireflies unnoticed, after that LOOK AROUND? the fireflies only move in 1 direction it hints at what direction it came from
and they have a range limit
and how much dmg they do tells u how much the said person has in df
if i get hit by fireflies when im not paying attention and only lose like 100 hp before blocking, idk about u but im hunting that mf down like a dog since he has 0 df in.
:bro:

kxroharuBalance#general

Tori will receive changes, and about 50 balance checks were suggested to the developer Pho.

If pho is serious about doing the like 50 balance checks I gave him
tori will be more then takin care of
such as? m1 range?
Mayhaps

kxroharuBalance#general

Patch notes will likely include small nerfs, and Storm loses damage after 20 meters.

they pissed me off with that play man
i just wanted to play wolverine
he's only good against teams that don't look up icl
so u think
but im in diamond rmbr
best believe they start looking up quite a bit since there's no hela that can just take me out anymore (she's perma banned)
:skull1:
patch notes rn't out yet
but i have a feeling they will be small nerfs
micro nerfing is the best play to keep the game feel the same
that'
is huge
she's not supposed to not head shot it's just the range she was able to do it from as a hitscan when everyone else has fall off is crazy
hawkeye too
bro has a literal bow and arrow and u want me to believe there's not supposed to be dmg fall off
yet storm loses all her dmg after 20 meters
lol
yeah
:kanye:
so no drop off?
so from 20 to 15% dmg buff?
eh ok ig
hawkeye is abit hard to play the hela anyway
respectable

Arena storm is planned for removal in favor of a match timer deciding winners by stocks and damage.

nah pho asked me yesterday if the balance checks list was ready to go which leads me to believe he's going to start adding them a little earlier then usual
no im not talking about present type soul, pre-reelease type soul almost lost to a copy before getting roblox to take the game down lol
yeah the devs killed the game on their own after that but
that's not wut i was on about no cap
lol
just about
i always do lol
unironically the better bleach game if it kept updating and reworking old mechanics and vfx
:ezzah: devs gave up after type soul re-released
oh well
i actually have plans on the doc for removing arena storm in favor of a match timer that decides the winner based on stocks left and damage
i think the arena storm is one of the worst game mechanics we've ever added 💀
what..?
bro im talking about ranked pvp not battle royale

kxroharuMechanics#general

Multiple backend developers have direct access to the game, but they do not handle balance checks.

he's very quick to respond
lol no
not sure what i'd be doing in gpo studio
💀
also people do have access but only the people who actually need access
there r multiple backend devs with direct access
they just don't handle balance checks
what
every game i know that has all devs in studio die from bs or someone gets fired and leaks the game or tries to make it for themself or some lame ah thing like that
the balance checks r apart of phoeyu's workflow now cos he'll ask me for them every update now but there's more then just balance checks on the doc and he still ignores some of the much more needed balance checks
because the deepwoken battlegrounds that were stolen copies aren't a threat to the game lol
???
or did u forget deepwoken was leaked multiple times
:skull1:
venom, bari and tori changes were skipped
type soul almost died to a empty battlegrounds copy before they got the game shutdown and hired the people who worked on the battlegrounds copy
:skull1:
also the full form ranked (arena and br) changes were skipped

kxroharuTeasers#general

Some unreleased content already exists in the game code, though the dev says it is not planned for use.

im not doing that but i have asked for stuff like this (it'll never be added)
instant reason to go back to first sea that's not a mid event?
:ohmygoodnessme:
we're not making them they r already made and in game
it's literally free content we're not using
it's insane
:what:
be so fr
bro what makes it funny is that when i convinced bro to revamp first sea i thought he was seriously going to start fixing alot of issues in first sea and the progression system from the ground up
first update after that conversation is "Town of Beginnings, Sandora, Shells Town island visually revamped"
😭
retention is at an all time low cos of the lack of care on the state of the game
:aPES_Blink: can't u just use any of the other colorable dresses
i don't think it's a dedication issue
that's wut we rlly thought, this is why so many people think old gpo was good
no what gpo could've have been during those updates was insane
but shortly after update 4 i'd be lying if i said i didn't think all the updates were going to be the same
not my business icl
imma keep it a buck
i did not vibe with the cupid update
lol
^
the multi-stage boss thing was cool but i think impel captures that alr
cupid was the same grind but faster and for a bunch of items that don't actually progress the game
only instead of a random chance for what u wanted u can just buy what u want if u grind impel enough
what
i feel like we had this very thing with the lucy colo for a short while
then it got chopped up and nerfed into the ground
tenor.com/view/drake-reacting-to-kendricks-di…
chop is floating in the ethereal plane
yeah that's what made it cool
the bosses in colo drop their normal drops as well
careful what u ask for
we just added like 2 legendary fruit
gold and smoke
dragon is on a coat rack rn smokin on the job
soul fruit is on the hook right next to dragon
heat would be cool
mera users could finally move on
instead of waiting for a v2
cos after pika v2 and mochi v2
:aware:
i wouldn't be waiting

kxroharuBugs & fixes#general

Tab glitching is not moderated as bug abuse, and the developers say it is up to the game to fix it.

idk im not a admin dude, but they always tell me that "we don't moderate bug abuse since it's up to the game to fix it" (there's no fix for tab glitching it just needs to be punishable)
but it's not the same as ur suggestion it's a bit more relevant to each full form mode
i have perms but it's not my job nor my area of expertise
please
think
:frenchjoy:
the irony here
honestly probably just wont regen till all the dodges r depleted, rn future sight's only edge over normal ken is it regens insanely fast for (no reason at all)
i've been specifically clarifying that this is an arena only change for like 2 days dude
:bro: where have u been
lol ok
bro wants the map to look like blox fruits
but maybe it's cos traveling is boring and not cos the island distances r far
:ezzah:
:frenchjoy: w troll icl
imma keep it a fat stack with you gang, adding more boats is not going to make it more interesting if the boats do nothing new
dudes were just saying ANYTHING back then
would be dope if u could buy potions on ur boat wouldn't it
or even craft them in a pot
but that'd be fun and interesting
BUT, it's not my job to make gpo fun and interesting or I'd lose my mind
