 * To improve the Action mode’s limitations with targeting, we are adding a feature called Lock-on Mode, which allows you to change the target during combat.
 * You can turn Lock-on Mode on and off by going to the “Game Options” menu and toggling the “Lock-on Mode” option.
 * With Lock-on Mode turned on, you will experience the original Action mode, where you are locked on to a target during combat.
 * With Lock-on Mode turned off, you will be able to change the target by pointing the crosshairs at an enemy regardless of whether they are engaged in combat or not.
 * To support this feature, the following skills now do “area of effect” damage. This change ensures that these classes can attack properly even with Lock-on Mode turned off.
 * Basic Attack and Double Slash for Guardian
 * Basic Attack and Flash Cut for Assassin
 * During attacks with combo skills and linked skills, the target will remain locked regardless of the Lock-on Mode setting, due to the quick burst of attacks when using these skills.
 * Changes will be made to the following classes to improve PvP balancing issues:
 * Berserker:
 * Increased attack versus Guardian and Assassin classes
 * Guardian:
 * Increased attack versus Wizard and Priest classes
 * Assassin:
 * Increased attack versus Berserker and Guardian classes
 * Reduced attack versus Priest class
 * Wizard
 * Reduced attack versus Berserker and Guardian classes
 * The quantity of loot boxes from field raids will be dependent on the damage dealt to the monster (5 max in a party/raid group):
 * 80% and higher damage dealt: 3 Loot Boxes
 * 40%-79% damage dealt: 2 Loot Boxes
 * 25%-39% damage dealt: 1 Loot Box
