Greetings, Shinobi,

A warrior is not a static being. You grow, you adapt, and sometimes, you adopt an entirely new form to better reflect your spirit. With the introduction of new character models, many of you embraced this change, but a fundamental dissonance was discovered. Your new vessels, your new forms, were not yet harmonized with the ancient and powerful Katon (Fire Style) techniques.

The intricate hand signs and chakra flows were out of sync, causing the very essence of the flame to flicker and fade. The path to mastering one of the most powerful arts was blocked.

Today, the path is clear. Our masters have successfully re-aligned these fundamental energies. We are proud to announce that all Fire Jutsus are now fully functional and properly animated for the new character models. The Katon has been re-ignited, flowing correctly through your new forms with fluid grace and devastating power.

This post marks the final chapter in our breakdown of the Restoration Patch. The village gates have been restored, the bonds between allies have been strengthened, the ancient arts have been clarified, and now, the phoenix has risen from the ashes. This patch is the stable foundation upon which we will build the future.

Thank you for your patience and your passion. Now go, and let the world feel the heat of your will.
