Sword Taker

Specialty

The Sword Taker relies mainly on his sword to deliver flurries and slashes at extreme speeds. The Sword Taker can creep right behind his enemies and slash them to death if they are not too careful.

Background

Raven's new Nasod arm is powerful. Too powerful, in fact, such that he has chosen not to rely on it. He is afraid that using it might overpower his consciousness and cause another threat towards the Kingdom of Velder. Unleashing the pent-up rage within him from the past will only lead to destruction. His willpower to resist the usage of his Nasod arm has caused him to revert to his old swordsmanship from when he was a soldier for the Velder Kingdom, thus being dubbed "Sword Taker".

First Class Advancement

After completing the Taker quest chain, Raven can decide between advancing as a Sword Taker, Over Taker or Weapon Taker.
Sword Taker can also be obtained by using the Item Mall item: Sword Taker's Revelation.

Trivia

  • Unlike Raven's other classes, Sword Taker's Nasod arm shows little change from it's original appearance, merely covering the circular detail on the back of the hand, and the armor taking a whiter color.
  • Investigation of client data shows this class was initially called "Soul Taker".
  • As stated by the names of his skill notes, a Sword Taker is able to life-steal by making a contract of blood with his blade.
  • Sword Taker was probably intended by the developers to be somewhat like a vampire, hence the name Soul Taker. But the idea was scrapped.
