TERA ONLINE ( VIDEO GAME ) CLASS HERO

What better way to complement the unique action combat of TERA, than to have ten unique classes. Whether you choose to be a healer, dedicated to saving your allies or a Lancer, sacrificing yourself for the wellbeing of the team, you will be valued and praised no matter what. Below you can find the information as well as a small piece of lore for each of TERA’s classes.


CLASS WARRIOR

As Fast and Deadly as a Typhoon

The trademarks of the warrior are lightning-fast attacks and excellent mobility, allowing this prodigal martial artist to fulfill many roles in combat. Able to dash, roll and jump his way across the battlefield, slowing and distracting enemies or quickly dispatching them, a warrior’s presence in battle is felt by both sides.
The warrior’s weapons of choice are the twin blades, enabling a skilled swordsman to take on multiple enemies or suppress a single foe with a barrage of blows.
“As subtle as a breeze, as dangerous as a typhoon”
The warrior class utilizes TERA’s unique combat system to its fullest, allowing you to precisely aim every attack, or skillfully dodge out of harm’s way.
A warrior’s attacks are relatively light, but his mastery of the blades allows him to inflict a steady output of damage by utilizing the combo system to chain together attacks and skills, as well as maintain the optimal distance from his target.
Warriors wear leather armor, making them more vulnerable to damage in direct confrontation, but allowing for an unparalleled degree of mobility. Though not as resilient as other classes, warriors can act as off-tanks, drawing the enemy’s focus while evading their attacks.
Good at initiating fights, warriors can often be found wreaking havoc in enemy ranks, disrupting formations and picking off weakened opponents, all in a deadly dance of steel.

=======================================================================

CLASS LANCER

Stalward Defenders of the Federation

Stalwart defenders of the Federation, the heavily armored lancers are masters of protection. Using their shield and their many defensive abilities, they are able to take on any incoming enemies, shielding allies from harm and allowing the team to focus on their own tasks.
Their attacks are slow, but precise and powerful, able to stun or knock enemies down. Lances provide good range for a melee class, allowing lancers to keep enemies at a safe distance. However, should an enemy get up close, the lancer can use his shield defensively just as well.
Wearing plate armor, the heaviest defense available to the soldiers of the Valkyon Federation, the lancer has exceptional protection against damage, albeit limited mobility.
His role in a fight – drawing the enemy’s focus to himself – does not require him to be mobile. Though lancers fight at their best in groups, utilizing defensive formations, they are dangerous opponents in a duel as well. Their ability to withstand damage and limit their enemy’s movement makes them a force to be reckoned with.

=======================================================================

CLASS BERSERKER

Unpredictable and Powerful

Fearlessly facing entire hordes of enemies, destroying foes with sweeping cuts of their huge axes and turning the tides in almost suicidal battles, the berserkers are the unyielding, unbreakable warriors of TERA.
Berserkers are the focused, aggressive disruptors on any battlefield. Their attacks are unpredictable and powerful, usually striking all nearby foes. They are able to defend their allies, fighting in the thick of battle, and they prepare themselves in order to unleash their furious strikes at just the right moment. With proper handling, berserkers are at the pinnacle when it comes to dealing damage, at least among the melee classes.
Berserkers, like lancers, are capable of wearing plate armor and as such have better than expected armor and defensive capabilities. However, their weapon of choice – the battle axe – is what makes them instantly recognizable, especially in battle.
The berserker’s skills focus on devastating attacks, further improving his melee prowess with stuns, knockdowns and debuffs. He specializes in taking down groups of enemies in melee range and wreaking havoc amongst enemy ranks.

================================================================

CLASS SORCERERS

Masters of Arcane Power

Sorcerers channel the potency of purest magic through their mystical discs, directing unseen energies to damage many foes at once, as well as guarding the flanks of their allies and breaking up charges.
Playing a key role in every battle, the sorcerer’s keen mind allows him to spot and exploit any weakness shown by the enemy, or escape from a tight spot using arcane tricks.
“Masters of the world’s secret truths and mysterious forces”
Boasting one of the highest damage outputs among the classes in TERA, a sorcerer, if correctly employed, can turn the tides of any battle. As a dedicated damage-dealing class, sorcerers have a wide array of spells which can be used to control battles from behind the front lines, obliterating weaker enemies and destroying approaching targets with blasts of pure arcane power.
The sorcerer wears cloth armor and, as such, must rely on correct positioning, mobility and controlling the movements of his foes to avoid coming into direct contact with enemy fighters. Though rather fragile, he can hold his own in a duel by outsmarting and outmaneuvering his opponent.
Though the sorcerer’s role in a group is usually to dish out heavy damage, he also possesses spells allowing him to slow or trap enemies, or dash back to safety.

=======================================================================



CLASS SLAYER

Harbinger of Death

Dominating the battlefield with a focused offense and aggressive tactics, the slayer is a harbinger of death, cutting a swath of destruction through his enemies. Wide-sweeping attacks, skillful dodges and versatile abilities make slayers a valued addition to the Valkyon Federation army.
“Have the courage to survive – anyone can die.”
The slayers are one of TERA’s foremost damage dealers, cutting down groups as well as single foes in a matter of seconds. Wielding massive two-handed swords, they are able to damage enemies approaching from any side, or knock down and crush them with devastating overhead attacks.
They wear leather armor, making them agile enough to avoid damage and position themselves before unleashing their powerful skills, as well as offering some protection when they are forced to fight in the thick of the battle.
In a team fight, slayers excel at taking down distracted enemies, using a wide array of focused attacks and leaving the foe stunned and unable to retaliate. With their deadly mix of mobility and high attack damage, they are also accomplished duelists

========================================================================

CLASS ACHER

Death From Afar

The bow-wielding archers are most often employed as scouts and spies in the Valkyon Federation.
However, it’s the battlefield that reveals their true potential for warfare. An archer is the eyes of the squad, making sure every ally is in the right position and every enemy pinned down. His arsenal of arrows and traps allows him to control the flow of any encounter.
The archer is a challenging class to play, requiring good reflexes and strategic thinking, but rewarding for those players who choose to master the way of the bow. With a wide array of skills, the archer is one of the most versatile classes in the game, able to respond to virtually any situation.
Archers are naturally most effective at medium and long range, unloading tons of damage with their charge-up skills or short bursts. To keep an enemy at the desired range, or chase him down, they can use traps, slowing shots and long-range attacks, making them great at finishing off weakened enemies.
Archers wear leather armor to maintain the agility required for using their skills. They should avoid direct contact with melee fighters when possible, so their highly developed escape skills often come in handy. Keeping enemies at the right distance is a vital part of playing an archer, and every shot must be carefully aimed.

======================================================================

CLASS PRIEST

Holy Warriors Blessed by the Gods

Healing, supporting and even resurrecting party members, the priest’s focus is the well-being of his allies. Despite having basic combat training, most Valkyon Federation priests are dedicated squad medics, making sure others can fight at full capacity.
They are often underestimated, but without these divine magicians and the powers their gods bestow upon them, battles would be much bloodier and far more costly.
Carrying out the will of their gods, priests are able to bless and heal their allies, even bringing them back to life. Naturally, they excel at keeping the party alive with healing, as well as suppressing enemies and reducing damage. A priest allows his party to operate at full capacity and maximum speed, without worry of injury or death.
Being fully dedicated team players, priests can summon their allies to them, or teleport the entire party to a safe location, making questing not only safer, but also faster.
Priests typically wear light robes, usually more ceremonial than protective. Due to their fragile nature, they rely on their healing and defensive abilities to survive in the heat of battle.

========================================================================

CLASS MASTICAL

Mystical Powers between Darkness and Light

Enigmatic, mysterious, powerful – though mystics evoke mixed emotions amongst adventurers, one thing about them is clear – unlike traditional sorcerers, they tap into the primal, raw energies of nature, making the best of its diversity.
Most of the mystics travel across the lands to perform what could be described as miracles. In the Valkyon Federation, they are the most versatile soldiers, often leading small squads during specialized missions.
The mystics of TERA may fulfill almost any role in a group, thanks to their wide array of abilities, ranging from healing, resurrection and buffs to slows, stuns and damaging spells. The mystic is able to summon thralls, elemental guardians which aid him in various ways, be it keeping his party alive or destroying his enemies.
Mystics can also use a unique skill – teleport jaunt – to freely teleport around the battlefield, maintaining presence where required or creating unexpected opportunities for engagement.
Mystics wear only robe-type armor, so they require the utmost agility to offset their lightweight protection. Even if they receive major damage, they can bring themselves back into the fray through their healing and crowd-control abilities, or with the help of their summoned thralls.

=========================================================================

CLASS REAPER

Dark Avengers from the Shadows

A devastating attack on their homeland blackened the hearts of many Elins. Driven by revenge, they went to war to repay those who had perpetrated this terrible crime. The Reapers were born!
Reapers wear leather armor, diving into the fray with tremendous speed and agility. They whip their weapons – two sharp, scythe-like blades attached to long metal chains – into the enemy ranks with devastating effectiveness. At range they are deadly adversaries, though they avoid direct hand-to-hand combat, dodging sprightly to counterattack from afar. Reapers slow their enemies, immobilize them, or even force them to swap places with them.
Using dark magic, Reapers can unleash powerful sundering strikes and death spirals to defeat their enemies.
Agility, speed and the skillful handling of their scythes are the Reapers' distinguishing features. In a group their role is to inflict massive amounts of damage, mercilessly carving through their adversaries with their scythes.

=============================================================================

CLASS GUNNER

Heavily Armed Tech Expert

With the help of their weaponry, Gunners bundle up arcane energy and transform it into lethal projectiles. This highly developed technology is the product of years of research by the High Elves and Castanic. Even though collaboration between the two peoples was sometimes uneasy – feisty Castanic and proud High Elves are rarely a harmonic combination – the project bore fruit in the form of this weapon. To this day, both races are the only ones who are able to work with the sensitive arcannon.
The arcannon is to a Gunner like a forearm is to the rest of us. With true aim and precision they fire piercing projectiles and place bombs that explode after a short time. In addition, they make use of the technical prowess to summon two constructs that then support them in battle: the ST Construct shots on close enemies without tiring whilst the HB Construct supports its Gunner with a healing beam. Using various abilities, the Gunner gathers willpower to then use for destructive attacks.
To be able to support the tremendous force that the arcannon releases, the Gunner wears armor made of metal. But even with the chain armor and heavy weapon, they are surprisingly nimble. The make use of the impact force to fire and jump backwards simultaneously. In groups the Gunner is popular thanks to the considerable damage they inflict on the enemy.

=======================================================================

CLASS BRAWLER

Furious Fighter with Fists of Steel

Brawlers are obsessed with power, and never shy from combat. Such unbridled rage burns away within their souls that they don't need any special weapons, preferring to pummel their enemies into mush with their bare fists instead, with no opponent being too big for them. Brawlers fight to the bitter end; surrender is not in their vocabulary. Walk the path of a Brawler, and you'll find it strewn with the battered bodies of the enemies left in her wake. A Brawler's ego is at least as large as her hunger for power. That a rival might have the sheer temerity to challenge her in battle is sufficient to bring her blood to the boil. Yet the Brawler knows precisely how to channel her fury, not only delivering bone-splintering uppercuts and knock-out blows to her enemies, but also harnessing that power to protect her allies. Brawlers are always looking to pick a fight, quickly drawing the attention of entire hordes of enemies. Throwing punches and kicks in a flurry, she can unleash a variety of combo skills. Given her penchant for close combat, she wears heavy metal armor to withstand melee attacks, and powerfists are similarly made of toughened steel. Some of her attacks are so powerful that they actually lift enemies into the air and leave them utterly defenseless to her continued barrage of blows.

========================================================================

CLASS NINJA

Camouflage Master

Ninjas spend years training in the secret arts before they head out into the world to put their abilities to the test in gruelling assignments. Their own specific combination of manoeuvrability, dexterity and power makes them best placed when fighting over a medium range. In battle, they primarily use sharp throwing stars, shuriken, which they use in concerted attacks on their enemies or even by throwing the stars through the air. To make their attacks even more effective, the ninjas charge their weapons with spiritual chakra power. However they can also use this energy to generate devastating flames which they can then unleash upon their foes. Alongside the sheer force that such close-quarters and ranged attacks have, a ninja's strategy stands out from the rest with their talented camouflage capabilities. These shadow warriors can then seem to vanish without a trace, only to then strike mercilessly in the next moment. If you manage to drive a ninja into a tight spot, you'll soon be puzzling as to how your most powerful attacks are suddenly being wasted on a tree stump that has suddenly appeared. In the meantime, the ninja has teleported behind their enemy, ready to eliminate them from behind. As masters of camouflage, ninjas can even transform into other people, to create confusion. To make the most of their speed and dexterity, ninjas only wear light materials. Their superior evasive manoeuvres make up for this disadvantage.
