Swordian

swordian.jpg


Swordian is considered to be a tank support DPS class as it has tons of HP, defense and support skills. It is mostly known for its survivability with its counterpart Star Seeker since it is able to abuse its invincibility frames and healing skills while being able to dish out DPS.

Pros

Cons

▸ Strong survivability compared to other classes allows you to DPS for a longer time
▸ Two heal skills that help the player in tough situations or dash around the playing field
▸ Several summons to allow the player to attack while doing extra damage
▸ Party passives which allow faster dungeon clears
▸ Certain i frames allow come back from problematic situations

▸ Increased hit box so easier to get knocked back in general
▸ A slower class compared to others
▸ Skills take longer to cool down than other classes
▸ Combo skill is easy to knocked back out of

Become a Swordian by following the steps:

1. During character creation, choose Engineer. Engineer is the first step to being a swordian. The player stays in this position until level 50 for its first class change.

2. At Lv. 50, advance to Meister. In this phase you are given an MG instead.

3. At Lv. 100, advance to Engistar. The player is given more skills but still retains an MG.

4. At Lv. 170, advance to Swordian. You are given new skills along with better passives.


2. The Basics

Swordian is a very “complicated” class to pick up due to its slow climb to the top. Although it is not the top DPS in its line it is able to help in solo/party play due to its wide variety of skills, passives and i frames. If the player is able to master a play style to using the skills in a certain timely it can greatly help. Currently its AP bar is used for the skills “Back Up”, “Air Force” and combo set up as opposed to SS’s need for it. In addition, the class is more SP heavy so there are times where it does run out compared to SS.

4. Skill Builds & Tips

Offensive Build

The point of this build is for solo/duo purposes as well as serving for independent or “pull your own weight” dungeon play. The goal is to be able to obtain enough HP for personal survival and enough damage to DPS when there’s a lack of members involved. In other cases for solo play, it acts as a stay alive mechanism for for 1 v 1 boss kill. In rare cases this build can be for full party play but only to DPS damage (faster kill) the enemies and or mobs.

Defensive Build

This build is for “Defensive” play and is used for big parties or support help. You’ll be providing the damage buffs and invincibility when the party is struggling. In addition, this build serves as a lure when no other tank is willing or available. This build can be used for solo play but lacks the “Release” skill to really obtain full potential dps. Instead it boosts the crit rate (with the crit rate turret) to stay closely to its offensive counterpart in terms of damage.
