バフ
의미: A buff — strengthening a character, weapon, or skill, either through a developer update or through an in-game effect.
Borrowed from English RPG terminology, バフ has two related meanings in Japanese gaming. First, it describes in-game effects that temporarily strengthen a character (healing, attack boosts, shields). Second, it means developer balance changes that make something stronger in a patch. Both uses are extremely common across all gaming genres.
