## :pencil:Balance Adjustments
To help maintain a healthy server economy, several monster drops and rewards have been adjusted.
**Some drops have been slightly `nerfed`** due to excessive Zeny generation within the server. These changes are intended to reduce inflation and improve the overall long-term economy of Dark Groom RO.
We will continue monitoring the market and make further adjustments when necessary.

## Bug Fixes
### Anti Titan Suit & Yeagerist Shield Fixed
An issue was fixed where the following items displayed abnormal Defense values:
* Anti Titan Suit displayed **DEF +50**
* Yeagerist Shield displayed **DEF +80**
These values are not appropriate for a Pre-Renewal environment, as Defense values beyond the intended limits can cause balance and calculation issues.
The items have been adjusted to their correct Defense values:
* Anti Titan Suit → **DEF +5**
* Yeagerist Shield → **DEF +8**
