'''[A swordsman who mastered the power of Rune and Magic]'''
===Background===
===Background===
While traveling, Elsword decides to practice his magic skills so that he can become stronger. He goes to Vanessa in Velder for help, and she explains to him that he can start using runes instead of fireballs to increase his power. Soon Elsword starts to use the runes he got from training, and this allowed him to become a stronger magic knight, thus giving him the name, '''Rune Slayer'''.  
{{Background
|NA=
A swordsman who uses both his sword and rune magic to fight.
 
Using both sword aura and magic can be difficult as they are two completed different forms of mana.
 
To circumvent the inefficient method of containing two separate energy in one body, Elsword develops a way to imbue magic into his sword, and earns the title, Rune Slayer.
|KR=
하나의 그릇에 검기와 마력을 함께 담으면 언젠가는 넘치는 법.<br>
엘의 보석과의 동조라는 묘한 체질 덕분인지 모두 높은 경지에 이르렀지만 계속되는 성장을 통해 결국 한계에 부딪힌 엘소드. 마법에 대한 재능이 부족했던 것일까? 짧은 후회 끝에 엘소드는 자신의 선택을 부정하지 않겠다고 다짐한다.
 
"''내가 결정한 길이야. 그러니 앞으로의 길도 내가 만들면 돼!''"<br>
검과 마법의 섬세한 균형감 사이에서 고민하던 엘소드는 고대 마법 문자 룬을 사용해 검에 마법을 담는 방법을 터득하게 된다.<br>
두 힘의 조화를 이루어낸 엘소드는 마법 문자를 이용해 검술과 마법을 빠르게 연계하고 마법을 한층 더 강화시키는데 성공한다.
|KRT=
If you try to put sword energy and magic together in one vessel, it will eventually overflow. Perhaps thanks to El's strange constitution of synchronizing with the Jewel, Elsword reached a high level, but eventually reached its limit through continued growth. Did he lack talent for magic? After a brief moment of regret, Elsword pledges not to deny his choice.
 
“It’s the path I decided on. So I can create the path for the future too!”
 
Elsword, struggling with the delicate balance between sword and magic, learns how to put magic into a sword using the ancient magic character runes. Achieving harmony between the two powers, he uses magic characters to quickly link swordsmanship and magic and succeeds in further strengthening his magic.

After a couple of battles, Elsword came to a conclusion that he has reached a wall.
Perhaps it was obvious as he was trying to contain both sword aura and mana in one container.
After a short regret, Elsword shook his head. This was his own path that he chose. Though he may not have been truly gifted, he did not want to deny this choice he made.
If there's no path, he can forge one. Just like when he first discovered his talent, perhaps hints can be found in the battlefield.

As he battles against the Nasods, Elsword realizes that what he needs is balance. A careful balance would enable him to utilize his limited container more effectively. But for that, he needed a new method that did not exist before.
'Magic usually requires language to activate, but when you fight face-to-face, it's hard to focus enough to speak, right? Why don't you try using magic circles or symbols that don't require you to say anything?'

Tips and Details

  • Strangely, Rune Slayer's >>ZZX combo does not have increased damage on an enemy affected by his Magic Chain passive, despite the former being a magical attack.
  • Unlike most other magical projectiles, Rune Slayer's Runes cannot be reflected completely. The runes will still go past enemies but will not deal damage if reflected.
    • Allies behind will receive damage from 'reflected' rune.


Trivia

  • In his concept art, his initial design was rejected as it had too many similarities to Magic Knight. They then completely redesign his outfit and personality to be more rugged and laid-back rather than knightly and serious like Lord Knight.
  • On Rune Slayer's runes, text reading "The Time Is Now" can be seen under the main symbol in small text.
  • Despite Sword Fire being moved to Magic Knight and Lodestar taking its place, it is still listed as one of Rune Slayer's Primary Skills.
