==Basic Information==
[[Elesis]]`s '''[[Way of the Sword(Elesis)|Way of the Sword]]'''<br><br>
When playing [[Elsword]], there will be an additional gauge below the skill hotkeys. This '''Way of the Sword'''(Also known as WotS) gauge will enable you to activate "Aura of Vitality" or "Spirit of Destruction" for a period of time.


Depending on the type of combo attack (e.g. Z and X key moves) or skill you use, the gauge will lean towards vitality or destruction. While in either "Aura of Vitality" or "Aura of Destruction", you will receive special benefits.
==Basic Information ==
[[File:WayOfTheSwordR.png]]
<br>
 
When playing [[Elsword]], there will be an additional bar below the mana gauge called '''Way of the Sword'''. This bar has 10 segments that, by default, contain 5 red {{color|#ff4444|Destruction|b=1}} slots and 5 blue {{color|#4488ff|Vitality|b=1}} slots, and depending on your actions, the bar will lean towards one color or 'aura' (from right to left for Destruction, from left to right for Vitality), replacing the other aura's slots. As long as an aura has at least one slot in the bar filled, you will receive special benefits depending on which aura you currently have active. The "Aura of Destruction" is selected by default, and you can switch between it and the "Aura of Vitality" by using the special action key ([V] by default).
 
Depending on the type of skill you use, the bar will fill towards the right with blue {{color|#4488ff|Vitality|b=1}} slots or towards the left with red {{color|#ff4444|Destruction|b=1}} slots:
*Flexibility/Tenacity skill: 1 slot
*Strength skill: 2 slots
*Bravery skill: 3 slots
 
Note that skills fill the slots contrary to their mode: Vitality-based skills fill the bars with Destruction slots; Destruction-based skills fill the bar with vitality slots.
 
If the bar is filled completely by either aura's slots, the aura for the other mode will deactivate and you will enter a neutral stance with no benefits when it is toggled on, until at least 1 slot is re-gained for that mode. As such, the bar acts as a balancing mechanic so over-using one mode's skills can prevent that mode's aura from being active.
 
=={{color|#4488ff|Aura of Vitality}}==
[[File:Vitality stance.png|right|175px]]
When {{se|063|Aura of Vitality||icon=no}} is toggled on, you will be surrounded by a blue aura and gain the following effects:
*Action, Movement Speed increase: 20%
*Vitality-based skills MP Cost decrease: 30% (PvP: 5%)
*MP Gain when Attacked increase: 100% (PvP: 20%)
*Vitality-based Command/Skill MP recovery per hit increase: 100% (PvP: 20%)


Note that the system they use is not what what it may appear to be at first; vitality-based attacks take away vitality from the gauge, leaning the gauge towards destruction; destruction-based attacks take away destruction from the gauge, leaning the gauge towards vitality; this is why only attacks that use the gauge area affected in the respective aura.
=={{color|#ff4444|Aura of Destruction}}==
[[File:Destruction Stance.png|right|150px]]
When {{se|064|Aura of Destruction||icon=no}} is toggled on, you will be surrounded by a crimson aura and gain the following effects:
*Damage increase when using Destruction-based Skill: 50% (PvP: 25%)
*Damage increase when using Destruction-based Command: 100% {{tt|(PvP: 50%)|KR: 20%}}

|}
|}
<br>


== Tips and Details ==
*Commands do not affect the bar's slots in any way. As long as 1 slot of the respective aura is left, they will benefit from the aura they align to.
*Destruction-based skills benefit from the 50% damage bonus in their entirety, as long as you consume a Destruction slot by using them, even if this makes your whole aura become Vitality.
*Vitality's MP gain increase is very potent, allowing you to throw out many costly skills with little issues. Keeping at least 1 bar of Vitality left at all times to be able to gain the effect for your commands is exceptionally helpful.
*Although '''Way of the Sword Mode Switching''' is a Special Move, it is still counted as a skill that cannot be used during some disabling debuffs like [[Status Effects/Silence|Silence]].
*Due to '''Way of the Sword''' effects being active as long as you have at least one bar of the respective type, there is no benefit from consuming more bars in the case of Strength and Bravery skills.
<br>
<br>
==Aura of Vitality==
When the gauge is completely blue (by using destruction-type moves), the "Aura of Vitality" will be unleashed in the form of an azure aura.


[[Image:GaugeFullVitalEffect.png]]   [[File:Vitality stance.PNG|thumb|Elsword's idle stance when in '''Aura of Vitality''']]
== Trivia ==
While in this form you will receive the following benefits:
*The sword icons that appear at the ends of the gauge are [[Lord Knight]]'s and [[Rune Slayer]]'s swords for "Aura of Destruction" and "Aura of Vitality", respectively.
<br>


*Increased action, movement, and jump speed.
== Old Version ==
*Vitality-based skills cost 30% less mana for both mana usage and usage requirements.
*In the past, the '''Way of the Sword''' system featured a non-segmented resource meter which could fill or deplete based on the amount of damage and number of hits dealt from skills and combos as opposed to purely skill category.
**Some special active will only cost from 100MP to 60 MP, 200MP to 140 MP, 250 MP to 175 MP, 300 MP to 200 MP
**The ability to switch between "Aura of Destruction" and "Aura of Vitality" was not present. To enter a particular mode, Elsword must fill the meter with the using the opposing aura's attacks. When it was filled, Elsword would be in that mode until the meter was depleted via the respective aura's attacks. Once the meter was depleted, Elsword would be in a neutral state until he fills the meter back up with one of the auras.
*Hits from vitality-based attacks and skills will have massive increase in mana regeneration per hit.

==Aura of Destruction==
When the gauge is completely red (by using vitality-type moves), the "Aura of Destruction" will be unleashed in the form of a crimson aura.

While in this form, you will receive the following benefits:
|-
 
! colspan=2 | Date !! colspan=2 | Changes
* Destruction-based actives and skills will do 50% more damage, and destruction-based combos will do 100% more damage. (This stacks with any other damage modifiers)
|-
* When attacked, Elsword will howl, and enemies within his immediate surrounding are damaged and knocked away. It takes approximately 1 second for Elsword to be able to move after howling (during that time, Elsword is both stoic and vulnerable). Elsword will remain stoic for 6 seconds. This ability will not activate again until the stoic runs out. It also won't activate if [[Stoic]] is already in use. Contrary to popular belief, this state is also triggered even if Elsword is hit while airborne (in which case, he doesn't howl and therefore doesn't get vulnerable: he can move right after its activation).
! KR !! NA !! PvE !! PvP
** This wears off roughly 1/5 of the gauge whenever activated from hits, and decreases slowly from combos that use destruction or (similar to being hit in this state) decreases rapidly from special actives.
|-
** Unlike his [[Stoic]] skill, the Stoic state obtained from Aura of Destruction does not reduce damage of received attacks, except for negating the first hit.

** If this is activated when [[Status Effects|"flattened"]] is inflicted upon Elsword, he cancels the flattening.

== Trivia ==
*While in the "Aura of Vitality" mode, [[Lord Knight]] can easily use several 200mp and 300mp skills in a single combo due to them having the passive "[[Vitality]]".
**In the same fashion, the "Concentrated Mana" passive guild skill and the Magic Necklace cash shop item make it even easier for all Elswords to use skills more often during that state.
*The sword icons that appear on the right side of the gauge are [[Lord Knight]]'s and [[Rune Slayer]]'s swords for "Aura of Destruction" and "Aura of Vitality", respectively.
