Core Release
Every character in Elsword has their own unique features that sets them apart from other characters.
Core Release System
On 01/28/2014 in the Korean server, Eve received a new system, the Core Release system. Core Release is a system exclusive to Eve.
Queen's Core
When Eve enters any level of awakening, Eve goes into Core Release mode and materializes the Queen's Core. The Queen's Core will follow Eve and react to help Eve by changing during offensive and defensive situations.
Attacks and Defense
In Queen's Core mode, every hit Eve does will level up the core. A core level up is indicated when the core lights up for 1 second. The higher the level of the core, the more damage will be dealt and number of times it is able to defend increases.
Queen's Shield
When Eve is attacked on the ground while in Core Release mode, the Queen's Core will switch to defense mode and cover Eve in a damage reducing shield and absorb the damage. While the core covers Eve in the Shield, pressing or will allow Eve to phase to the back of the target. The core, however, disappears after defending and will appear again after Eve does some hits.
Queen's Laser
When Eve uses an active or special active that hits a target, the Queen's Core switches to offense mode and fires a blue laser at targets. The laser does multiple hits and will not knock down. The angle of the laser will lock on to the nearest target. The damage of the laser done depends on the core's level. Lasers will be shot at the beginning of the skill with the exception of some skills including: Dimension Link Blader, Illusion Stinger, Sonic Wave, Heaven's Fist - Sweeper, Surface Cutting, which the laser will be shot at the end of the skill.
Powerful Queen's Core
At 3rd bead awakening, a Powerful Queen's Core is created. When Eve uses an active or special active and it hits, the Queen's Core will fire a red laser which has higher damage output and does splash damage.
Smaller Game Model
Thanks to the in-game model of Eve (which is short in width), moves such as Sword Taker's Dash Launch Combo or any similar moves with small hitboxes will be much harder to land. It causes a similar effect to Quick Recovery, except that it can cause an automatic knockdown instead if launched.

Tips and Details
- Damage does not include the awakening attack bonus and is based on (physical attack + magic attack)/2.
- In level 3 awakening, the normal and powerful Queen's Core hits are done simultaneously for a total of ten hits per target.
- Only powerful Queen's Core does splash damage. E.g., on two targets that are close enough, each target is hit 15 times (5 from normal, 10 from powerful).
Trivia
- Eve's Core Release System's concept is very similar to Raven's Anger of Raven feature, but with a few very important differences.
