Enchant Hotkeys

In this post, I will provide the settings I use as hotkeys. Recalling that the Hotkeys can be used in different ways and you must choose the configuration that suits you.

Belt
F1 Hell Bike - Run, run far and run again when needed.
F2 Hell Bike - Run, run far and run again when needed.
F3 400cc Potion - Always use Ampule HP with 400cc Potion to heal faster.
F4 Ampule HP 400 - Always use Ampule HP with 400cc Potion to heal faster.
F5 Ampule MP 400

Flare & Remove / Avoid Darkness
F6-1 Flare - Configured in the first position because you need quick access in the middle of a PVP.
F6-2 Continual Light
F6-3 Mercy Ground

Skills Support
F7-1 Freeze Ring 2
F7-2 Rebuke
F7-3 Heavens Ground - Configured in the third position because it has a very high delay. Used less frequently.

Buffs PT1
F8-1 requital - Configured in the first position because you need quick access in the middle of a PVP.
F8-2 Lightness
F8-3 Detect Invisibility
F8-4 Detect Hidden

F9-4 Holy Armor - Configured and after Bless Striking as it is used later.

Buffs & Sanctuary / Divine Guidance
F10-1 Sanctuary
F10-2 Grail
F10-3 Divine Guidance
F10-4 Thorns
In F10, basic sequence: Holds (Sanctuary), launches Grail, Divine Guidance, then attack combos with Skills. Thorns in the fourth set because it has a long duration .. little accessed.

Attack Skills
F11-1 Sweep Vice - Configured for combos in the first position with Apple.
F11-2 Aura Ring

Attack Skills
F12-1 Apple - Configured in the first position for combos or even Vice Sweep Aura Storm.

Dog
Ctrl Space - We know that the Aura Shield is buggy when used after the requital and summon the dog is necessary to solve the problem.

Until next time!

Enchant - PVP Video (Errors)

2010-09-10T11:06:00.003-03:00

Video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n833pFJ12cc

I Would like to comment on some mistakes that I made in the video above.. mistakes that should always be avoided by Enchants.

Error 1 (1:42) : Obviously that Sanctuary should not have been casted. Using Sanctuary, Grail and Divine Guidance on the same Hotkey, and inadvertently used instead of Grail. Luckily, the vampire used Set A Fire.

Error 2 (2:05) : Aura Shield and Requital started to flash in the skills bar, indicating that they would end soon. Rather than standing back and using them again. I went up and took a combo of two skills which took me almost 50% of my HP away.

Error 3 (2:10 - 2:40) : For some unknown reason (lol) , I didn't use HP amples. As you can see, the PVP ended in a draw. But if I had not made this error, the victory would come to me. Sometimes in the middle of thousand things to do, we forget basic things.. sad.

For those who wonder : ‘Why all the Aura Ring?’ This is pretty simple.
Aura Ring is the skill holding the longest range of enchant. If you engage a vampire who moves a lot, is ideal... whenever it’s possible (when the vampire approaches), I used Rotten Apple and Sweep Vice. Some vampires insist on a close combat with Enchants. So my friends, you sit your finger on Rotten Apple Sweep Vice + Aura Storm or (if the vampire does not have much MAGICAL DEFENCE)

If you have any suggestion, please comment on this post.

Encouraging words for Enchants and Blades

2010-09-02T22:51:00.007-03:00

So far, in this DKL server.. A lot of good players had left from slayers.
Generally, we’re lack of players in slayer. However, what we need the most is Enchant and Blade.
It has been a big task for us to defend our base again vampires due to our population of Enchants. So I thought it would be better if I say which advantages you can get by playing those 2 classes.

First, Enchant.

Thanks to KR official, INT base class been improved. We’ve obtained much more power by INT.
So the more INT you get, the more things you get from your buffs (so do other players).
With Enchant, you can help other people by exceeding their specs(stats, DEFENSE, PROTECTION, DAMAGE etc).
With Lightness, 120 level skill.. They allow all players to see inside of Darkness as if you’re a vampire.
With Heavens Ground/Mercy Ground.. You will help a lot of players against vampires and ousters since they prevent your companies from getting spaced out by enemies.
(Especially, Heavens Ground deals decent silver damages while it protects you from getting Darkness or any other harmful skills).
We have a lot of Guns dealing pretty good damage with decent To Hit. But they’re very struggling with hitting vampires because they can’t see through the Darkness.
Requital will help you a lot on the battle field against melee class enemies. So far, there is not even a single Combat ouster who can kill a chanter, because of Requital. (Unless, they want to commit suicide).
The more Enchants we have or Heals, Swords/Guns will do much easier job on PVP. Why? Melee vamps will be forced to change their builds from full DEX to DEX+STR which means lower DEFENSE for them.

Second, Blade.

Most people say Blade deals very good damage which is true. But no one can deny they have a very slow attack speed and low To Hit. However, Blade never go to full DEX base, they still decide to be a full STR based so when they hit , they will deal much more damage than anyone.. and oh, one more thing.. To Hit doesn't matter to Dragon Typhoon (Horus skill).
Also, with full STR you will be a good tanker in bible war, everyone will protect you when you are holding a bible. Air shield protects you by reducing incoming physical damage to 90%.
With To Hit bonus from your item sets.. It might be impossible for you to kill some combat enemies.. but when it comes to mage classes. You’ll be a god.
Their Dragon Typhoon will cause your enemies to fail a lot of skills against you.
Blade is one of classes that allows combo attack (Blaze Walk/Dragon Typhoon/Blade Storm).

We are not telling you to stop playing your current character and make a new Enchant or a Blade. All you have to do is to tell new people around when you see them to read this post or tell them what advantages you can get from those 2 classes and what we're lack of.

3 mistakes in previous posts have been fixed

2010-09-01T22:38:00.003-03:00

In the posts "Enchant - Skills" and "How to be a good Enchant" we had 3 mistakes and they have been fixed.

1. Heavens ground avoid and remove Summon Clay also.
2. Serent gives DEFENSE +5, not +10.
3. Feacel gives magical attack+3, not +5.

Sorry for that.

Enchant - PVP Guide

2010-09-01T16:36:00.009-03:00

(From Old KR Forum)

How to kill fires. Don’t run away from them!

With this tactic, I killed 188 Fire before in banatul.
When the match begins, don’t use Grail on it first. Just spam Flare on it. They can`t cast Incinerate using CAPS LOCK.
It will get Flare at least in 5 times of trying. After the fire got Flare, don’t just stand where you are right now. Move somewhere else (so you don’t have to get hit by them, they can estimate where you are unless you don’t move).
After Flare -> Grail -> Rotten Apple/Sweep Vice spamming (for elemental ousters, they have Divine Spirits so Aura Storm is not effective against them).
Flare will last about 25~30 seconds. When it goes off. Try Aura Shield control and spam Flare like I said before.
Flare is not a noob skill. It’s one of tactics you have to get! Don’t try to save it for them!!

PVP tips against all classes - written from old KR Enchant (192)

Okay, so my status is 751 INT / 170 ALL RESISTENCE / DEFENSE 800 (No Scrolls – With self-buffed)
The most important thing above these is ALL RESISTANCE that I would say.

Against vampires

INT
They’re my delight when it comes to PVP.
ALL RESISTANCE 150 is basic. 220~230 is very highly recommended (can deal with them easily)
Lots of Enchants complain about PVP against INT vampires but they really need a lot of ALL RESISTANCE and HPS.

Why HPS? I personally have a PVP mace but I use HPS mace to kill mage vampires. My entire HPS is only just 6 but I’ve had an experiment with Thorns+Divine Guidance+Aura Storm+Rotten Apple : I got 70~80 hp.

When the match begins, they will use Gore and Set Afire to make it attack you or just spam Nooth/Meteor. I saw many Enchants using Freeze Ring when the Gore gets close to them.
HOWEVER, it is not very good idea to freeze it because then, vampires will come near you to use Venom Circle while you’re trying to use Freeze Ring.. and Venom Circle drains your MP with just one single hit!

So when the Gore comes near, don’t use Freeze Ring just run away(behind) – don’t feel so bad about running, it’s one of ways to control your characters, no one will pick on you.

When the Gore wasn’t get pushed into you. Use Grail + Divine Guidance and go front, using Aura Ring.
(I tested aura storm on a vampire with full horus acc + stone skin + ALL RESISTANCE 150, he got only 30~40 damage from aura storm – but you can use Aura Storm if you have HPS more than 12)
OR, simply use Aura Ring in a far distance. When the vampire uses Gliding and tries to use Venom circle. Use Sanctuary to trap and cast Heavens Ground. (Heavens Ground stuns / no Blood Wall / Darkness / cast silver damages)... and attack with Rotten Apple/ Sweep Vice (Only when trapped).

Secondly what is very important is how to use Aura Shield. When you’re attacking it with Aura Ring in a far distance, just run away til you get enough MP regeneration from Meditation and spamming Aura Ring.
When the shield gets off because of Venom Circle, use it again immediately.

DEX
Can beat them all the time(day/night).
But DEX/STR vampire will be a bit harder.
When they use Bat Storm in a far distance, don’t get close to it, just use Aura Ring. (you have a Aura Shield to protect from Bat Storm!)
When it gets close, use Grail + Divine Guidance and spam Rotten Apple/Aura Storm

Against ousters

Combat
Very easy, Requital + Aura Storm and go get a coffee for yourself(or afk). It will be dead soon.
Charging attack might be a big threat but Combats don’t like to use it to Enchants because of thorns (they have to sacrifice 1/5 of their HP to use Charging Attack).

Water
In field, just use Sanctuary and Grail. Don’t even need Heavens Ground.
In Banatul, however, you might need at least 200 moju (to kill high Waters). When the match begins, use Grail immediately. After you got Explosion Water (Bidet), use Divine Guidance.
Spam Rotten Apple+Sweep Vice (if you want to use Aura Storm, Aura Ball would be much much better =_=)
Keep attacking, then Water might use Ice Horizon, AT THAT TIME use Heavens ground on Ice Horizon and get close to the Water.
With this tactic, you can kill low Waters. High Waters heal very fast so you can’t kill them unless you trap them. Not to mention, try to avoid Ice Field always

Fire
Don’t even think about 1vs1 with them.

Earth
Similar to INT vampires.

It’s a matter of HPS + high ALL RESISTANCE. Use Sanctuary and then Heavens Ground (Heavens ground will remove the effect of Fury of Gnome wich decreases your mobility and attack speed to -50%).
When it’s out of Sanctuary range, just use kill it the way you kill INT vampires (running and attacking to avoid bombers from draining your MP).

Most of example mentioned above, are based on 1vs1 situations. The way you act might need different actions when you are in a party.

We will add videos soon, to make it clear and tell you how to act in most of mentioned situations.

How to be a good Enchant

2010-08-31T14:56:00.007-03:00

Everyone knows that Enchant is meant to help other players. Not to mention, they gain a new name after JC, a granter.
In this post, we’ll learn how to be a good Enchant.

As a prior, to be a good Enchant, you need to buff yourself and other players.
Not just buff them, buffs are always on active all the time. (If you don’t want others to cry for buffs)

To buff, you must follow this progress:

First of all, use Bless/Striking (BS) to YOURSELF, and then buff other people starting with Bless/Striking(BS). When you get Bless, it gives more stats to you or to other players, so you get more bonus with other buffs.

Usual buff order in party : Bless/Striking(BS) -> Grail(GR) -> Thorns(TH) -> Holy armor(HA)

The first player to get buff apart from you is ‘tanker’ in your party (Sword, Gun), especially when it comes to Tiff2 or HellGarden party. (Especially at night, when urgent, use Grail /Holy Armor first in case low DEFENSE will cause the whole party to fail Tiff2/HellGarden)

At day, use Grail/Holy armor to Heals/Blades first since Swords/Guns have higher DEFENSE than those 2 classes. Instead, you give Thorns to Swords/Guns first so that they can hit and kill even faster.

At night, use Grail/Holy Armor to tankers first to have them protect the whole party. Heals/Blades will die at night by monsters even if they have the whole buff on.

In terms of items setting for Enchants

For accessory :
INT + ALL RESISTANCE forge (The more int you get, the more damage and bonus you get from buffs)
STR to INT + ALL RESISTANCE forge (Very good at PVP)
INT+DEFENSE/DEFENSE+HPS/INT to DEX + DEF(HPS) (To farm, not recommendable when you’re low level)

For armors :
INT + ALL RESISTANCE ou INT + DEFENSE (ALL RESISTANCE for PVP e DEFENSE for farming but both are good)

Stats : Full INT (for better buff and DAMAGE for Thorns)

Rank Skills

Serent: DEFENSE (+5)
Feacel: DAMAGE increase of Enchant (+3 magic attack)
Litena: Increase CURSE RESISTANCE (+15)
Kainel: HPS (+2)
Geneal: INT+5
Fore Geneal: DEFENSE +5%

Heals – An interview with Monostone

2010-08-28T21:58:00.017-03:00

In this post, we present some tips from Monostone, renowned as one of the best Heals today, who currently playing a vampire, kinjikij.

WARRIOR: Monostone, first of all, I would like to thank you for this interview. What is your name and your age?
Monostone: My name is David and I am 19 years old.

WARRIOR: How long have you played DarkEden and when did you start playing Heal?
Monostone: DarkEden I started playing in 2001 but I stopped playing a few times. I created my first Heal name Monostone from the Fengshen, a Chinese server.

WARRIOR: Considering your vast experience in Heals, what is the key to success by playing this class?
Monostone: The most important thing is DEFENSE. I always played in party with Enchants and had a very high DEFENSE. Then, totally buff and with a good set you can get enough DEFENSE to block most of the characters based on strength, combats. PROTECTION also is important too, but there is MAGIC RESISTANCE. Moreover, the more INT you have, more damage you get.. STR Heals are not as good as before.

WARRIOR: What is best Build for Heals?
Monostone: I think the best build for dklegend server is full INT build for the fact that gives more damage and heals more.

WARRIOR: Could you tell us some secrets? Tips?
Monostone: The secret of being a good heal is to Heal fast.
One tip is that you use a potion +400 hp +400 cc with Activation skill.. You heal your HP very fast. If you're fighting with someone, don’t ever attack if your HP is not close to the maximum. This is a common mistake that people make when they start attacking after the CCW (Cause Critical Wounds) rather than healing. Then they die. If you combine healing potions with Great Heal, you can recover your HP within an insane speed.
The way you move is also very important too. If you know the range of physical attacks from your opponents and you move in a sort of "zig-zag" in the diagonals, you make melee char hit you even more difficult. After casting a CCW, do not stay close to their opponents, go further. Some people can kill Heals in seconds. People say that the strategy of Heals is running, and it is true. If you do not move, you will die. Since ousters Combats has paralyze in dklegend, you need to cast CCW before they paralyze you and move a lot.

WARRIOR: What is the best combo for Heals in dklegend?
Monostone: Genesis + Vigor Drop

WARRIOR: And Illendue?
Monostone: If you have HPS, Vigor Drop heal you enough. Besides, Illendue is a targetting skill, so you can not use in the midst of Darkness.

Kronos considerations : The reason he says to use drop is that Illendue has a short range than vigor drop or genesis. When you try to use Illendue, your character will move closer and may get hit.

WARRIOR: Are there any tips for us to CCW vampires that move a lot?
Monostone: If you fight a vampire with CCW and failed it, you're dead .. but let's say you miss the CCW, then your best option is to move. If you get criticals, you heal .. if not lead, just keep moving and using potions. Never stop. The vampire or ouster will keep chasing you.

WARRIOR: Are there any specific strategy against certain classes?
Monostone: If you fight ousters Combat, they have the ability to paralyze you. This means that they'll stall, you're dead. The best strategy is to play it safe, you use ccw and pull back as far as possible. There, you use genesis and once ccw disappears, keep pulling back and ccw him when he comes to near you. It is a very annoying tactic for the opponent, but very effective. This goes to all races, really elemental ousters will not be an issue for you if you have good items. The only concerns are ousters Melee Combat and vamps.

WARRIOR: You use CAPS LOCK?
Monostone: Never. If you use caps lock, sometimes vie monsters. This can make you miss a CCW, which means you’ll give a chance to your opponents to kill you.

WARRIOR: What set a Heal should use the dklegend?
Monostone: I think DEFENSE +5/6 INT+6 is the best. With a Full Set so you have about 75, and 75 DEFENSE extra, and extra INT.

Kronos considerations: DEFENSE + HPS for farming / ALL RESISTANCE + INT/AA for pvping, since ALL RESISTANCE is working to mage ousters in this server, and mage vampires and ousters have been updated to deal more DAMAGE with INT.

WARRIOR: Do you have any advice for those who want to become an expert on Heals?
Monostone: Get a high DEFENSE and set horus and you will be invincible!

WARRIOR: Thank you Monostone.
Monostone: You are welcome.

Thanks to Kronos also.

Sword - Skills

2010-08-28T21:40:00.009-03:00

Today, let’s talk about important skills of Sword.

Dancing Sword
Cross Counter
Radiance
Expansion
Sharp Shield
Hit Convert
Sword Of Thor
Shine Sword
Bike Crash
Heavenly Spark

Buffs Attack skills

Dancing Sword - Increases TO HIT. Should always be casted after Radiance / Pet-summoned and Blessed by Enchant (assuming you use balance rings STR>DEX), since the more DEX/TO HIT you have, the more TO HIT you get from Dancing Sword. It is common for Swords to forget to use this buff during battle, however it always is essential to keep the buff on.
Cross Counter - Reflects physical damage received from opponents(melee). Should always be casted primarily to deal with mobs around the caster. The combination of Cross Counter + a good HPS set is great and is what keeps you alive sometimes.
Radiance - At skill level 100, increase 21 DEX points. Should always be used before Dancing Sword, in order to give you more TO HIT. It may not seem a lot, but 21 points of DEX makes a difference!
Expansion - Increases your HP and those of whole party members. Although it gives very mild amount, should always be casted.
Sharp Shield - Reduces incoming physical damage and reflects some physical attacks to opponents (when close). Yes, Sharp Shield also reflects.
Hit Convert - On level 100 and with a good TO HIT, you can push your opponent away with critical attack. Great skill against Waters, who fail when they try to cast Water Explosion on you and in the same are hited by Hit Convert.. due to short range. Is also a great skill to move Gores away.
Sword of Thor – Causing increase of damage up to around 30% to opponents located on a casted field, no matter if they are monsters, vampires or ousters. This increase also applies to any slayer to attack that area, not just the sword using it. Use it whenever you can.
Bike Crash - Terror. Bike Crash is one of the most hated skills by other races. When used with a sufficient TO HIT, causes a small moment of "paralyze" to the target .. sometimes it does not cause "paralyze" but you glue on the opponent, due to a low TO HIT . It's a great skill for Heals also, who have a better chance to cast CCW on opponents that move so much. It's also great for making Water Explosion fail. Use it wisely and you will see how important this skill is.
Shine Sword – Similar to Sword of Thor, but causes damage constantly! It is a skill that puts the most amount of silver to opponents, more than Enchants and Heals could deal. When casted, nearly halves the time it takes the enemy to be killed, if you're in a party. I see very few Sword using this skill or at all, simply because of demand of the silver on weapons. It is very good skill in anywhere, either to Race War, Hell Garden Tiff2, etc.. A very viable option to use silver for the lvl up is to use a second weapon in the second set with silver, you can change the set, and immediately use the skill , then switch back to the first set and keep attacking normally. Cross Counter and Thorns consume your silver from your weapon as anything in this world.
Heavenly Spark - Quick and long reach, is an improved version of Infinite Thunderbolt. In the middle of combos, all Sword has the option to "sit the finger" with such skill.
Heavenly Spark gets extra 10% damage when you reach 171/181/191/201... level.

Soon, new videos will be posted to show how to use some of the skills cited as best as possible.

Slayers – Basic Concepts

2010-08-28T21:30:00.003-03:00

Slayers. The race with the largest variety of classes can be defined in one word: teamplay.
Teamwork is essential in any situation, both lvling or pvping. Sometimes a simple buff or using a particular skill leads your team to a victory in battle. It is essential that the player knows what his/her role within a team .. what to do.
Superfluous in a way, these are the basic functions of each classes:

Blades / Swords - Tankers. Are supposed to "jump" (close combat) up to their opponents.
Heals – Supporter. However, many players forget their primary function: For a healer, it is even more important to stand behind other players to carry on the function of that attack. Obviously when the situation is favorable, healers should attack as well. However, stay behind defensively, hitting a ccw or healing other members is not something hard to do.
Enchants - Right arm of all other classes. A team must compulsorily have at least one enchant. Their buffs are very vital in any situation. Requires a little more skill and knowledge in their gameplay skills. Many enchants also forget that their primary function: buff.
Guns - The Killers! In most situations, Guns should be in the backline, behind Blades/Swords, since its high range allows this. It is key for guns to attack others in farther distance, not getting attacked by enemies.

Basically, this is what should be done. Of course there are some specific situations that require different actions which will be described further below .. What we must always bear in mind is: Slayer = nothing without teamplay.

Below is a short video that is worth a thousand words. Slayers buffed (includes protection curse, blood, acid and poison!) and well settled.. Heal healing and Enchant supporting.. outcome: no major problems.
