Featured Updates

 



 

Developer Commentary:

Wizard wields his Rod and Knife to cast deadly magic upon his foes. At the apex of magical ability, owing to an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, Wizard can magnify the flow of the primal elements.

 

Possessing explosive magic skills and the means to escape from dire situations, large-scale battles are where he truly shines.

 

- The new class Wizard will already be Ascended upon creation.
ㆍ Wizard can only equip a Universal Main Weapon and a Universal Sub-Weapon.
- Wizard has four active skills upon creation and can learn more skills as he levels up.
ㆍYou can acquire the title "Godr-Ayed Thea" upon reaching Lv 10 with Wizard.
ㆍYou cannot acquire the title again if you already have it.

 

 

Rod Mastery

- Concentrate the power of elements in your Rod to attack enemies.

 

Basic Skill

 


 

Elemental Flow
- Strengthen your power through the elemental flow of magic.

 

"Elemental Flow" is one of Wizard's core skills and is considered to have a strong impact on the gameplay experience in terms of combat.
"Elemental Flow" decreases the cooldown of "Mana Echo" by 1 second every time you use a skill.

 

Also, when "Mana Echo" is used, the character recovers 50 MP.

The use of the above skill also increases all skill damage for a set time and decreases PvP damage taken.

 

Wizard will become more powerful as he makes more use of his magic through the above effects.

 

Passive Skill

 


 

Mana Echo
- Recall and reuse the last magic skill cast.


"Mana Echo" allows you to recall and reuse the skill that was last cast.
Utilize the passive "Elemental Flow" strategically under certain circumstances to reuse the last skill cast.
Based on the Elemental Flow stacks spent, you'll get additional skill damage increase and PvP damage dealt reduction effects.

 

Lv Requirement: 1

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Increase Max Hits
- Decrease Attack Speed
- Increase Range

 


 

Earth's Response
- Utilize arcane powers to strike the earth powerfully and bring forth a surge of rocks to inflict damage to foes in front.

 

Input directional keys with "Earth's Response" to move quickly toward a certain direction and activate the skill.

 

With this skill, he can evade enemy attacks and keep them in check and select the HP recovery effect as the skill enhancement.

 

One of the skill effects is "Knockback on hit" which allows you to combo debuffs when used with another skill that inflicts "Daze." However, this skill cannot be used instantly during another skill, so it will be useful to combo with a skill that has relatively less delay after use.

 

Lv Requirement: 1

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Recover HP
- Decrease Move Speed
- Inscribe: Aal
- Inscribe: Serrett

 


 

Lightning Storm
- Utilize arcane power to summon lightning from above to strike down enemies within a certain range.

 

Wizard utilizes his magic ability to strike down enemies in a certain range with lightning and inflicts Stun.

 

Lightning strikes around the target and when there's enough MP, you can hold the skill button for consecutive attacks.

 

As the max range of this skill is long, damage over time can be dealt to enemies from afar.

Additionally, an attack can be performed quickly when the skill is used after Earth's Calling,
which gives you another opportunity to Stun targets if you fail an attack with "Earth's Calling."

 

Lv Requirement: 1

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Reduce MP Cost
- Increase AP
- Inscribe: Labreve
- Inscribe: Ahib

 


 

Earth's Calling
- Call forth the energy of the earth to attack enemies.

 

With Earth's Calling, you can move quickly in the direction you want, then deal damage and inflict Knock-up.
The skill can be used to keep enemies in check or as the first skill in a combo.


You can accumulate the amount of damage by comboing with Lightning Storm when you move in the opposite direction of enemies.
You can deal significant damage by comboing into Earthquake from Terra Strike when moving and used in the direction of the enemy.

 

Lv Requirement: 1

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Bleed
- Increase DP

 


 

Voltaic Pulse
- Charge the power of lightning to strike the ground and sent out deadly currents.

 

With Voltaic Pulse, Invincibility will be applied while you Daze enemies when you move backward.
You can utilize this to counterattack incoming enemies.


When comboed with Lightning Storm, Earth's Calling, or Terra Strike, you can deal significant damage in place.
This allows you to block enemy attacks with the Forward Guard effect of Terra Strike then deal damage more stably.

 

Lv Requirement: 10

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Increase Crit Chance
- Decrease DP
- Inscribe: Serrett
- Inscribe: Labreve

 


 

Lightning Surge
- Send out flashes of lightning forward.

When used on its own, it deals damage over time while electric currents are gathered.
When comboed with other lightning skills, it can be used most efficiently in auto-combat because it gathers lightning for explosive attacks within a short period of time.

 

Lv Requirement: 20

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Decrease AP
- Reduce MP Cost
- Burn
- Inscribe: Aal
- Inscribe: Ahib

 


 

Terra Strike
- Utilize arcane power to bring forth a strong earthquake to inflict a massive amount of damage to enemies nearby.

 

Terra Strike can be utilized in large-scale battles with Forward Guard and Super Armor.
You can accumulate the amount of damage by using it consecutively through Mana Echo.


This skill can be used to deal the final blow as it combos with skills that deal significant damage such as Earthquake or Voltaic Pulse.

 

Lv Requirement: 30

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Increase DP
- Reduce Cooldown
- Bleed
- Inscribe: Ahib
- Inscribe: Serrett

 


 

Teleportation
- Instantly teleport and bypass enemies in front of you over a certain distance.

 

Teleportation is a skill you can utilize to move quickly through enemies while gaining Invincibility.
If you have enough MP, you are granted additional movement, and using "Mana Echo" will allow you to teleport up to 4 times.


This skill can instantly be activated during other skills, so it can be used to escape from danger using Teleportation when stuck in a dire situation.

 

Lv Requirement: 40

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Increase Move Speed
- Increase DP
- Reduce Cooldown

 


 

Earthquake
- Utilize arcane powers to strike the earth powerfully and inflict significant damage.

 

Earthquake creates a zone that deals damage over time to enemies at the location it is used.
You can deal significant damage over time by using the skill enhancement "Extra Charge" and Mana Echo to create stacks.
With this skill, you can gain control over the surrounding area or deal great damage to target-locked buildings or monsters.

 

Lv Requirement: 50

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Decrease Move Speed
- Bleed
- Extra Charge
- Inscribe: Aal
- Inscribe: Labreve

 


 

Thunderbolt Strike
- Generate thunderbolts to inflict damage over time to enemies.

 

With "Thunderbolt Strike," you can summon thunderbolts and attack enemies nearby for a set time.
This skill does not have the Super Armor effect, so it can be utilized more stably if you summon thunderbolts first, then enter the targeted location.


Upon use of Mana Echo, the duration of thunderbolts generated reset and the damage of Thunderbolt Strike increases.
You can utilize the Super Armor applied from Mana Echo to enhance the thunderbolts and enter combat right away.


When tapping the skill button again during the skill, you can deal significant damage in a short period of time then end the skill,
which allows you to choose the duration of the skill.

 

Lv Requirement: 60

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Increase Crit Chance
- Reduce Cooldown

 


 

 

Elemental Veil
- Lift the mystical barrier between elements to draw out their near infinite arcane power.

 

Lv Requirement: 70

 

Branch and Enhancement Info
- Increase Crit Damage
- Increase Black Spirit Skill Damage

 

Developer Commentary:

Wizard is a class who constantly requires MP because it is often utilized for his main skills "Lightning Storm," "Teleportation," and "Lightning Surge." Therefore, using Memory Imprints with the Recover MP effect will be the most effective with this class.

 

We can largely divide Wizard's combat style in two ways. The first combat style is securing enough distance between him and the enemy and performing consecutive attacks with "Lightning Storm." The second is utilizing Forward Guard and Super Armor applied from "Terra Strike" and comboing into "Earthquake" and "Voltaic Pulse."

 

Wizard is an appealing class in the fact that he strategically keeps enemies in check with skills that apply various debuffs and Super Armor while utilizing "Mana Echo" to reuse the last skill cast and reducing the cooldown of "Mana Echo" with "Elemental Flow."

 

 

 

Class

 

Developer Commentary:

With the introduction of the new class Wizard, we've also made balance changes to existing magic-wielding classes, especially based on what could be improved in large-scale battles.



 

Developer Commentary:

Firstly, Invoker's combative power was improved with the Lightning Rod effect from a previous update. However, the skill comboed after the debuff was applied to the target and didn't deal enough damage due to its short duration, so there were still improvements to be made.

 

With this in mind, we've adjusted the damage dealt to enemies with combos by increasing the damage of her core skill Gigavolt and other skills as well.

 

Voltaic Burst
- Increased PvE damage.

 

Lv1 : 649.68% x 3 → 682.17% x 3
Lv10 : 796.12% x 3 → 835.93% x 3

 

 


 

Cataclysm
- Increased skill range.
- Increased PvE damage.

 

Lv1 : 764.03% x 5 → 802.23% x 5
Lv10 : 1092.55% x 5 → 1147.17% x 5

 


 

Fissure
- Increased PvP damage.

 

Lv1 : 271.16% x 4 → 314.54% x 4
Lv10 : 362.27% x 4 → 420.23% x 4

 


 

Gigavolt
- Increased PvP damage.

Lv1 : 430% x 4 → 494.5% x 4
Lv10 : 564.62% x 4 → 648.83% x 4

 


 

Power Surge
- Increased PvP damage.

 

Lv1 : 291.6% → 335.33%
Lv10 : 413.1% → 475.06%

 


 

 

Developer Commentary:

Sage can deal significant damage when certain requirements are met with the effects of Distorted Dimension.

 

To enhance this trait, we have improved the activation speed of the preceding skill that meets the requirements for use and increased the hit accuracy of powerful skills that utilize Distorted Dimension effects.



Judgment of Ator
- Increased attack speed.

 


 

Phase Shift
- Increased attack speed.

 


 

 

 

Developer Commentary:

Archmage activated a series of Rune effects during combat by using Flame skills and Ice skills repeatedly with the addition of the Alternating Runes effect.

 

However, it was not easy to operate the circulating runes as intended, so some skills were improved to consume MP and increase skill damage.

 

We hope to reduce the gap in combat efficiency depending on the presence or absence of circulating rune activation, and to bring out more potential depending on the mastery and manipulation skills of circulating runes.


- Added the "Skill damage +50%" effect to trigger when spending 50 MP upon use of "Frost Pillars" and "Combustion."
