Class Rating

Adele Bossing

Adele is a decent job to play if you're interested in taking down the end-game bosses. She has many fifth job skills which deal lots of damage and can be a great DPSer. She has several i-frame moves that can be activated and a 30-second final damage buff that needs to be maintained during battle for maximum damage output.

Adele Mobbing

One of the better classes at mobbing. Adele's Ceave attack skill has a wide-range hitbox, allowing you to attack multiple platforms in small maps. Adele also has flying swords that damage mobs as you move around the map. She has very good mobility too.

Adele First Job Skill Build

You can max all skills in first job, so don't worry too much about distribution of skill points. You gain 3 SP per level.

• Blade Of Will (+1), Magic Dispatch (+1), Jaunt (+1)
• Jaunt (+3)
• Blade Of Will (MAX)
• Magic Dispatch (MAX)
• Jaunt (MAX)
• Martial Discipline (MAX)

In first job, you want to make sure your mobility and main attacking skill are maxed early on. Jaunt at level 4 is a decent double-jump, but if you have enough damage you can max it out. Blade Of Will is your main attacking skill, with Magic Dispatch decent for mobbing with a 6 second-cooldown.
