【Hero Rework】
1. Da Qiao
Added a Rage mechanism. By controlling Rage value, normal attacks or Rage skills gain bonuses.
Removed the Strategy Points mechanism and switched to a Rage mechanism.
Da Qiao's Rage skills increase the corresponding Rage value; after stopping the use of Rage skills, Rage decreases by 4% per second.
When Rage exceeds 40%, Da Qiao's Rage skills gain additional bonuses; when Rage exceeds 100%, all Rage is consumed, causing Da Qiao to enter the \[Blazing Embers] state (in this state, Da Qiao cannot use Rage skills, but normal attacks gain bonuses).
4th Skill \[Tung Oil Fireball] (formerly \[Oil Pot] adjusted):
After use, increases Rage by 30%.
Throws a tung oil fireball that explodes upon hitting a target.
\[Ember]: Explosion damage increased by 50%; after the explosion, leaves a fire ring that deals 3 points of fire damage per second to enemies inside and reduces their movement speed by 0.6|1.2 m/s (infantry|cavalry) for 20 seconds.
5th Skill \[Garrison]:
After use, increases Rage by 30%.
Increases all armor of the entire legion by 20 points for 12 seconds.
\[Ember]: Increases the entire legion's infantry movement speed by 1 m/s, and restores 25|10 HP (hero|troop) every 2 seconds.
Q Skill \[Flame Crossbow]:
Switches to flame spray mode, spraying flames forward. While in use, increases Rage by 6% per second.
The flame spray crossbow deals fire damage per second equal to (6 + 2.5% of target's max HP) to enemies.
\[Ember]: The flame damage dealt by the flame spray crossbow is increased to (12 + 5% of target's max HP).
Hero Passive \[Girl Genius]:
When Rage exceeds 40%, enters \[Imbued Flame] state; when Rage reaches 100%, consumes all Rage and enters \[Blazing Embers] state.
\[Ember]: Rage skills used in this state gain additional effects.
\[Blaze]: Da Qiao's attack speed increased by 4%, melee attack increased by 10%, and damage dealt to targets suffering fire damage increased by 20%, lasting 15 seconds.
During the state's duration, no Rage skills can be used.
Legion Passive \[Flame Terror]:
When the entire legion deals fire damage, the target accumulates Sear value equal to the damage dealt.
If Heartburn value exceeds 200|80 (hero|troop), the target is \[Sear].
\[Sear]: Takes (3 + 3% of max HP) burn damage every 2 seconds for 12 seconds.
Tactics Skill Adjustments:
Removed: Soldier Tactic \[Legion Promotion], Soldier Tactic \[Legion Armor], Soldier Tactic \[Legion Lining], Army Tactic \[Clever Tactic], Army Tactic \[Hammer]
Added:
○ \[Burning River Linked Flames] (Army, 60 tactic value): Each enemy killed that is \[Burned] or \[Heartburned] by the fire ring grants the corresponding kill score; if the score exceeds 80, \[Burning River Linked Flames] ranks up by 1, up to a maximum of 5 ranks (\[Burning River Linked Flames]: Each rank reduces damage taken by the entire legion by 2%; at max rank, the Rage value increased by all skills is reduced by 20%).
○ \[Blade of the Burning Boat] (Army, 60 tactic value): Each time 2 targets are \[Sear], the entire legion restores 20|8 HP (hero|troop); when the hero enters \[Ember], their melee attacks additionally deal 30% fire damage, but damage taken is increased by 20%.
○ \[Natural Chasm] (Army, 40 tactic value): Increases Garrison duration by 3 seconds.
○ \[Piled Firewood] (Army, 40 tactic value): \[Tung Oil Fireball] cooldown reduced by 3 seconds.
○ \[East Wind] (Army, 40 tactic value): The Rage requirement for \[Ember] is reduced to 30%.

5. Optimized Contract-type items (including: weapons, mounts, cloaks, and back decorations, etc.) to resolve the issue where they could not be matched with different wardrobes.
