Trivia

  • On Dark Knight/Crimson Avenger job path, Elesis' claymore gains a more blade-like appearance, similarly to Pyro Knight/Blazing Heart, demonstrating Elesis' decision to veer away from her original, formal swordsmanship and develop new weapons/forms of combat.
  • Interestingly enough, Dark Knight/Crimson Avenger does not use blood as a means of damage, only using it as a power boost. Her skill animations are either evil energy or gaps being torn through space.
  • After advancing to Dark Knight, Elesis' character selection screen quote changes to match her new personality.
  • Investigation of official document shows this class was initially called "고스트 나이트 (Ghost Knight)".
