Wow that was short ey? Given this wasn't related to the patch earlier, it makes sense for it to have its own hotfix page. Not quite as in depth, this one aims to give ST a bit more mileage in comparison to its brothers. For a long while, ST didn't really fulfill its niche well enough to warrant using it. So the following is being adjusted:

[Rank 5 Shift] ST Specialist

    Cost: 10 SP
    Passive
    Effect: For the following Sword Arts, +3 to multipliers and +2 to EN cost; ST-I, ST-II, ST-B. No other Shifts for the same Weapon Type may be possessed.

Becomes:

[Rank 5 Shift] ST Specialist

    Cost: 10 SP
    Passive
    Effect: For the following Sword Arts, +5 to multipliers and +3 to EN cost; ST-I, ST-II, ST-B. ST-B procs now occur on a CD7+ and are maintained if an ST-B used the previous turn has missed. No other Shifts for the same Weapon Type may be possessed.
