Weapon Taker
Full Name
Raven
Class
Weapon Taker
Weapon
Blade, Nasod Arm
"I will remain the Raven that I was to begin with.

As long as I am alive, the Crow Mercenaries will never die out; I am back and I will show you the Crow Mercenaries restored to its former glory.

For them... I will once again don the uniform of the Crow Mercenaries..."


Weapon Taker

Speciality

As a weapon, the Nasod Arm requires a strong foundation of intellect, but since Raven was once a mercenary, his body became more combat-oriented instead after much of his experiences. Still, a few hysterical aspects (of the Nasod Arm) have bound to his basic skills allowing Raven to deal more damage at the risk of damaging it; Raven is now able to execute complex attacks by integrating medium-range flame attacks from his Nasod Arm with his combat proficiency.

Flames or fire bullets that are launched from the Nasod Arm explode on target, and for that reason, Raven's Nasod Arm can overheat. However, this overheating system can be exploited as a strategic attack to deal enormous amounts of damage by making use of the increased heat generated by the arm. Raven's Nasod Arm, when beyond overheated, can now withstand the high temperature and is able to continuously attack. The most opportune time for the Weapon Taker to attack is when he has plenty of stamina, but he needs to be well prepared first.


Background

Raven tries to restore the honor of the "Crow Mecenaries" remembering the sacrifice of his companions.

The Crow Mercenaries were never rebels. They took the fight to prove the honour of the Velder Kingdom.

Even after his escape from the Nasods who implanted within him a spirit responsible for his misdeeds and sins, he still could not forget his comrades and fiancee who fought and sacrificed themselves for him.

He now returns, not for vengeance, but as the Leader of the Crow Mercenaries and will do what he needs to restore their lost honour.



First Class Advancement

Weapon Taker can also be obtained by using the Cash Shop item: Weapon Taker's Revelation

Raven is required to be Lv15 to begin his first class advancement.

Taker

  1. Eliminate 9 Jangos in 2-4 on any difficulty.
  2. Speak to Echo the alchemist of Elder
  3. Collect a drop from William Phoru in 2-4 on Hard or above.
  4. Defeat 18 Bomber Mongs in 2-4 on Very Hard (☆☆☆).


After completing the Taker quest chain, Raven can decide between advancing as a Sword Taker, Over Taker or a Weapon Taker.

Weapon Taker

Speak to the Merchant Leader Hoffman in Elder to receive the Weapon Taker Quest:

  1. Speak to Lenphad the Blacksmith of Elder.
  2. Collect one Overheat Mechanism Blueprints from the William Phoru Boss in 2-4.
  3. Complete 2-5 in Normal Mode (☆) or higher.
  4. Collect one Mechanism Core from Wally 8th Boss in 2-5 in Very Hard Mode (☆☆☆).

Once Weapon Taker reaches Lv. 35, Raven can advance to Veteran Commander.

Additional Combos

Image Description
File:WtCombo1.png Overheat barrage

Fire a fire bullet, then do dash attack and cause an explosion at point-blank. If you press X repeatedly, you fire off a barrage of explosions that do a large amount of damage, but this will consume HP due to overheating. You will glow red for a few seconds, which is the "overheat" state. In this state, you will temporarily gain an extra 10% in damage for normal combos and skills.

Hit and Run

Raven attacks three times with his sword, then does a backstep, firing 1 shot with his arm and another shot, knocking targets down. Where as, holding the directional button, he does a front roll pass his enemies and then grabs them with his arm.

File:WtCombo3.png Aerial Fire

In midair, slashes once, then use your nasod arm to cause an explosion; press again for another, larger, explosion, thereby propelling yourself higher. This combo is somewhat similar to Rune Slayer's >>^xzz


Overheat

Weapon Taker has a unique system in which he can increase the effects of some skills by "overheating" himself. Such skills include Revolver Cannon, Giga Prominence and Hellfire Gatling. To do this, one must repeatedly press the skill button for the corresponding skill 5 times or more in succession. If done right, a small text will appear saying "OVERHEAT", you will glow red and the skill will be longer than usual. You will result in the loss of HP after using this system.
