Anyway, just in case anyone cares, my skills of choice for Swordsman would be ...

Throwing Sword [Defender] - 3 shots per level, wide, blocks bullets, does great damage. Can't slash while your sword is flying though.
Mangle [Defender] - I actually think this is the best defensive skill Swordsmen have, and as an added bonus it's a great way to kill mobs that come in from the bottom or any time you need your space.
Thrust [Knight] - hits in front and behind, and it's a bit wider than it looks. It's not particularly special but 6 shots per level is nice and it really helps your limited ranged repertoire.
Spirit Sword [Defender] - the only one I'm not sure about, but I really didn't find any of the other skills that great. This lets you get some extra firepower out without forcing you to aim.

I found the mini-boss in Bifrost hard. That god damned bastard spawns bullets a good distance away from him, generally where I hang back. All others that pissed me off were more annoying than hard. They moved really fast, and made it an utter pain to try to even HIT them. It was basically "HURR HURR WHEN YOU GONNA MAKE YOUR MISTAKE?" while I get a hit or 2 every 1 or 2 attacks they did (Literally a HIT, not a skill). Such a damn piss off.

I agree with all skills but Mangle. Only reason why is because it has a delay when you start it up that allows you to get hit. Had quite a few deaths activating Mangle only to die the instant after activating it =/.

To add to that list:

Pentagram Slash [Fighter] - Just a good skill to rake up damage.

I didnt see many magicians in the CB but the ones that I did see didnt have any impressive skills =(
The best one I thought that they had was the triple thunder shot since it had 100% hit rate

In my opinion, the best Ranger/Hunter skills are:
Phoenix shot - covers 1/3 of the screen with super damage. Just too useful....

Dragon shot - fast straight piercing shot that covers about 1/3 of what phoenix shot covers. Super damaging and super spammable.

Arrow orb - Shoots a ball that shoots arrows as it moves forward in a 360 direction twice. Very spammable, decent damage, and has crowd clearing abilities for those pesky fast enemies

Arbalest - summons energy bows that auto shoots arrows for a certain period of time. number of energy bows is determined by the level this skill is at (maximum 5). Gives very good backup power regularly as it has a very very fast cool down. The direction of the energy bows can also be manipulated by the character's placing and movement.

Anyone know any good archer skills? I havent tried any of them since they were mostly all buffs...

Amanda · 02-12-2009

I thought archer sucks =/
Takes like two hits to kill a monster that takes one hit for wizard or sword.
And the thunder wizards have are their normal attack, unless you're talking about the skill, which I've never used.
I only have meteor and blizzard :<
Blizzard does awesome damage, and meteor has good range and does good damage too :3

Seim · 02-12-2009

Actually.... archers probably do suck since all their skills are buffs...but their passive is great when u mix them

If an Archer had just dragon shot and phoenix shot, the archer would definately get more points than a wizard..... Cause those two skills are just that rigged

Xpecial · 02-12-2009

The buff are actually REALLY good, especially if paired with high damage/dex.

JelloTime · 02-12-2009

Must try this game during OB.

I never got the chance to try out Pentagram Slash, I went into load before putting it into my keys.... then after that server shut down within a minute ;-; And it's from Knight ok.
I agree on BilFrost's miniboss being one of the hard ones though, took me a few(alot prob) tries to stop dying.

Fighter attacks are all rushes except for the spin thing, and usually leads to you getting killed without counter passive '-' Leap rush is nice for those annoying spiders though.

looks like the little triangle spaceship shooting games

Seim · 02-15-2009

yes, its like an epic raiden

was wondering the same :|

so apparently there will still be an Open Beta...

buta · 02-16-2009

There was probably enough interest to grant the Open Beta. Never seen an Encore Closed Beta before. O_O

Oh well. Cool. :O

Tea · 02-16-2009

yay :3

m1s3ri · 02-16-2009

I'm kinda sad that they're not wiping characters. My friends and I were planning on doing no-swordie runs, but if they're not wiping I'm going to feel the need to keep playing mine ;-;

Swordie is so haxxxxxxxxxxxx
