Elsewhere, Tokuda-san said that the development team will be implementing “various adjustments” based on user feedback, including tweaking weapons.
These will be implemented gradually with each upcoming title update in order to make the game more enjoyable for everyone for a longer period of time. Depending on the content, these changes may take some time to prepare.
In particular, he noted that the Hammer is one weapon that is being considered for “upward adjustments,” while “unintentionally overpowered” tools such as the Corrupted Mantle will be toned down. Overall however, it is looking for a “generally balanced” update and is looking to implement weapon balance adjustments in the May update or Title Update 2.
