Dear Metas,
Following Lunar Oracle, the Visional Wheel is about to turn, landing on a new anomaly: Starfall Inversion, in which a massive, inverted star draws near Nalcott!

Starfall Inversion Introduction
A colossal, shattered star looms in the heavens, its gravitational tides sweeping across Nalcott. Under their aberrant influence, objects and structures on the surface begin to rise uncontrollably. Yet, amid the chaos lie hidden challenges, treasures, and lots of fun! Are you ready to ascend into the sky?
Planned Period: Late May – Late September
Affected Scenarios: Manibus, Evolution's Call, Prismverse's Clash, The Way of Winter (not including novice scenarios)

Lunar Oracle Rule Adjustments
1. Survival Environment and Gameplay Adjustments
The inverted star will approach Nalcott daily from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM (in-game time, about 30 real-world minutes), unleashing immense gravitational tides.
Under their influence, structures on the surface will be pulled skyward, creating extraordinary aerial exploration zones in some settlements. Use the floating energy rings to swiftly traverse the sky, uncover mysterious Star Advent Loot Crates and Unstable Aggregates, and collect special materials known as Gravity Crystals—but beware of gravity-warped Deviants!
When affected by the gravitational tides, you will enter a unique low-gravity state known as Stellar Levity, allowing for higher jumps, extended airtime, immunity to fall damage, and significantly increased Load capacity. Additionally, new formulas will let you craft items that further enhance your aerial exploration and mobility (see below).
As a Meta-Human, you will quickly adapt to the low gravity, mastering a devastating plunge attack. Perform a melee attack from high altitude to quickly descend in your aimed direction until you hit something or land.
Deviations still struggle to unleash their full power in the skies, but fear not—there are lots of available footholds.
2. Combat Updates
Starfall Inversion will also introduce new gear sets and mod suffixes, as well as some Cradle adjustments.
a) Gear Set: Gravity Tide Set
1 piece: Increases jump height.
2 pieces: Increases Magazine Capacity.
3 pieces: Take reduced DMG from Deviants while airborne, and gain a DMG boost after mid-air movement.
4 pieces: Even larger damage boost after mid-air movement.
b) Mod Suffix: Downstar
Applicable Mods: Pants and Shoes
Suffix Effect: When attacking units below you, you gain Crit DMG, Elemental DMG, Weapon DMG, and Status DMG buffs.
c) Cradle: Some Cradle effects will be adjusted to fit the new Visional Wheel season

3. Survival Changes
During a Starfall Inversion, you can obtain Gravity Crystals by opening Star Advent Loot Crates in surface settlements, collecting Unstable Aggregrates in the sky, or defeating gravity-warped Deviants. Gravity Crystals can be used to craft special items or construction parts after unlocking the requisite formulas.
a)Survival Items
Gravity Neutralizer: A mysterious device, the product of Rosetta research or Mayfly grit. It can be toggled on or off at will. If enabled during a Starfall Inversion, you can hold Jump in mid-air to hover in place., or automatically hover while using ADS or OTS.
Gravity Tuner: Zero gravity can be inconvenient. The Gravity Tuner temporarily nullifies the anti-gravity effects of a Starfall Inversion. Use it again to disable its tuning effect. The Gravity Tuner is fully reusable.
There are also lots of other convenient item formulas and recipes to be discovered!

b) Construction Parts
Anti-Gravity Foundation: A special floating foundation that can support other structures. Can be built in your territory or other buildable areas, allowing you to bring your dream floating city to life. Note that Gravity Crystals are not refunded when demolishing Anti-Gravity Foundations.
(Anti-Gravity Foundations are similar to ceilings and compatible with all ceiling wallpaper cosmetics.)
c) Vehicles
During a Starfall Inversion, vehicles gain increased jump height, extended airtime, and will not lose Durability from high-altitude falls.
d) Starfall Treasures
Open Star Advent Loot Crates for a chance to obtain special items, recipes and formulas, four types of gravity-warped animals and their skins, and six types of gravity-warped Deviations.
Collect Unstable Aggregrates for a chance to obtain mods with the Downstar suffix and the Gravity Tide set or individual pieces.
4. Starfall Collection Event
Collect Gravity Crystals to unlock wonderful rewards, including new weapon skins, charms, avatars, collection items, and more.
There is a weekly cap on Gravity Crystals that count toward event progress. After reaching this cap, event progress will be limited.
During the event, Gravity Crystals can also be used to redeem items and rewards from past Visional Wheel seasons, but redemption limits apply.

5.Schedule for Other Scenarios
After this update, servers with the Visional Wheel tag will automatically change to Starfall Inversion.
All Lunar Oracle phenomena will stop completely, and special items (such as Lunar Whispers) will no longer drop.
Since zero gravity affects PvP combat balance, most PvP scenario servers will not feature the Visional Wheel tag. For a fair and balanced PvP experience, choose a server without the Visional Wheel tag. But if you're bored of regular combat, try a Visional Wheel server.
Starfall Inversion is unavailable in the new scenario undergoing beta testing.
