Dragon Nest Mercenary Heraldry Plates Guide

In Dragon Nest, apart from the class skills, a player also has to consider the kind of Heraldry plates that he will use. Heraldries are special plates with endowed stats that help boost your character’s performance in PvE and/or PvP. They have a range of enhancements from class skill boost, status boosts, and special skills.

the heraldry set is pretty organized and is broken up by type and level. Level in this case does not refer to the level of the heraldry plate but instead your level.

A Dragon Nest Character has Heraldry slots. Each slot, at the beginning of the game is locked, and while leveling up, each slot will slowly unlock.
Refer to the picture for the exact level needed to unlock that particular heraldry slot.

As each slot unlocks, you are allowed to put heraldry in that slot.

Heraldry can be found in dungeon instances, Dark Lair, or other users. Each Heraldry Plate is locked and untradeable until unlocked and gives the choice between two effects when unlocking it except Special Heraldry. Special Heraldry only gives one effect.

“We're going to have a dedicated server for ‘Dragon Nest SEA’ in the Philippines, and hopefully, this can be achieved by December this year.”

The Coolness of Assassins in Online Games

A game usually divides character classes into two categories, bright and dark. Most players are fully aware of the powerfulness of the bright and inclined to neglect dark classes. They may firmly believe that bright classes are mightier than dark classes. However, as more and more hardcore players turn their eyes to dark classes, such classes as assassins, ninjas and killers get popular gradually. Actually, the classes that represent the dark have tons of advantages over those that represent the bright, e.g. the abilities to lurk and commit assassinations, irresistible flying skills, the glorious combos, and their cool personalities. It can be said that dark classes have created a stir in games.

Dragon Nest Force User Skill Build Guide

Force users have high damage output but seems to be more solo-friendly with skills to help support one in battle.

Darkness = Damage/Control.
Light = Defensive damage. (Less damage than Darkness, focuses on protecting you)
Time = Support allies, weaken enemies.

In terms of PVE = very good class.

In terms of PVP
One Vs. one = Take the darkness route.
Party battles = All are good, but Time is the best when used well.
If you don't want to be good at PvP = Take the light route.

This is Princess Cow's current skill build, The Dark and Time build. Based on my experience when the two of us play together, it compensates for it's slow cooldown with the high damage output. You can't spam your skills compared to the other builds out there, but is definitely handy in hurting monsters and your opponents big time.
