Rune Slayer

Speciality

The Rune Slayer combines the best of both attack types—physical and magical. Elsword becomes this refined Magic Knight once he acquires more advanced magical skills to cripple and dominate his foes. Advancing to a Rune Slayer provides Elsword with more improved combos and new rune attacks that can be summoned with a flick of his fingers. Keep your enemies at a distance using runes or charge in with your sword!

Second Class Advancement

At Lv35, Magic Knight can advance into Rune Slayer. The second class advancement quest is obtained from Ariel, the event NPC located in every town.

Rune Slayer can also be obtained by using the Item Mall item: Rune Slayer Mark.

Description

Rune Splash

Elsword casts a rune directly in front of him and then expands it, lifting targets in range.

Aerial Rune

While airborne, Elsword casts a rune in the air and then propels it downward at a 45 degree angle, covering a moderate distance. Unlike the old version, before launching it down Elsword has the Rune "pop", stunning the enemy and making his target vulnerable for a combo.

Trivia

Upon advancing to a Rune Slayer, all of the normal Fireball combos have been replaced with Runes.
- This may be because of the runes Elsword has acquired through training.
- Unlike the old version, Runes travel much faster and are larger than Elsword's old Fireball attacks.
All of his skills involve pure Magic Damage, including his Passives and Actives.
Rune Slayer is also the only character with tattoos, which are located on his left and right arms.
