Champion

Only a Carsise can become a Champion.
Only a Carsise can become a Champion.

Champion is one of the six main classes in the game. Only Carsise can become a Champion. Champions deal physical damage with melee attacks — a classic front-line tank. They wield a big two-handed sword. Champion is recommended for experienced players rather than beginners.

Champion Pros & Cons

Pros:

+ Highest HP and Defense scaling among all classes; most skills are focused on survivability.

+ In early game (PvP and bossing), Champions are huge value for the guild — they soak damage and hold the frontline.

+ With server and character progression, Champions become much stronger: insane survivability + serious damage.

Cons:

- Early on, Champion is tough to level and farm solo.

- Very weak crowd-control kit.

- In the early stages you often play as a “punching bag”. To start performing well in PvP/leveling/farming you need heavy investment into gear.

Leveling 1–75

You can reach level 75 through the storyline questline. Grinding mobs to 75 is much slower compared to completing the ~3-hour story line, which teaches mechanics, introduces NPCs tied to daily quests and life skills. From 75 to 80 you will need to level up on Dragon Island or in the Mirage (EXP is gained only in these locations).

What Stats to Build

The Champion’s main stats are Constitution and Strength.

- If you stack only Constitution, you become extremely tanky, but your damage/attack speed/proc chance will be low — solo leveling and farming gets painful. On the other hand, you can tank strong mobs, bosses, and enemy damage in PvP. - If you stack only Strength, your survivability will be noticeably lower.

Extra stat: Agility. The key stat to watch is Attack Speed, which scales with Agility. Maximum damage for Illusory Strike is reached at 210 Attack Speed. Your goal is to eventually reach 210 Attack Speed passively with gear (without Berserk and without buffs).

If you need to reset extra Agility or Strength points, you can buy stat reset potions in the Item Mall for IMPs.

Champion Gear

Core Gear

While completing the storyline, you will craft your own gear via life skills. You receive Ancil gear (armor and weapon) that you will upgrade throughout the whole game.

Gems

Recommendations for gem forging and gear choices.

Before you dive into the list, remember one thing: Champion is the only class that is truly demanding on three stats at once — Constitution, Strength, and Agility. Pushing all three together is expensive, which can create a wrong impression of the class. Early on, prioritize all gems except Strength.

Additional items & tips:

ItemTip
Fairy Companion 2 genFairy Companion 2 genYour Fairy is the main stat source. For Champion it’s usually STR + CON. Agility Fairy exists in niche builds only. Level it first — with Possession active, stats are effectively x2.
Riding mountRiding mountLevel when possible. Move Speed is #1 quality-of-life stat.
Regular Hand PetRegular Hand Pet or Rare Hand PetRare Hand PetIf possible, great convenience. A rare pet gives % stats. Best pick: 3% ATK or 3% HP.

IMPORTANT: There are many builds and gem distributions. It makes no sense to cover every build in one guide.

Consumables

Consumables can increase your damage/survivability by up to ~50%. Don’t ignore them in PvP (and sometimes in PvE).

Up to Lv37 (27 skill points), your character automatically levels the required “path” skills:

  • s0066 Concentration — Lv2
  • s0062 Sword Mastery — Lv3
  • s0081 Illusory Strike — Lv10
  • s0063 Steel Will — Lv1

  • s0063 Steel Will — Lv1

You have 13 points left to flex — s0066 or s0063. +10 more points at Lv80.

Class Gameplay

Everything starts with what weapon you plan to play:

  • w0205 Mastery gives more survivability via s0068 and more PvP buttons: s0107 and s0083. This build is tankier and more “button-heavy”.
  • w0034w0034 mastery (or w0034 + w0076) has higher stat potential for damage — meaning s0081 hits even harder. Fast swap to w0076 can add extra tankiness.
  • Your job is to soak damage on the front line. With enough tank stats (PR, HP, DEF), enemies may ignore you in a crowd — that’s your green light to delete squishier targets like Voyagers and Sharpshooters.
  • You fear magic classes — Defense doesn’t help much vs them.
  • You love running under s0103 (Cleric buff): huge Defense boost that can make physical classes struggle to break you.
  • The core skill for Champion players is stat priority management. First, you’re the punching bag. Then that punching bag becomes a problem on the battlefield. Yes, it’s the most expensive class — but once you build a real tank, you solve guild content.
