Lost Ark will welcome its latest advanced class, the Breaker, on March 20th. The tem has released a new breakdown of the newest martial artist, including skills, playstyle, stances, and class identity.
Being an advanced class for the Martial Artist, the Breaker is for those melee combat fans who want to be a scrappy brawler that packs a punch. This is an action-packed class, and you get to choose your approach. When using Stamina skills, it depletes your Stamina gauge and increases your Shock gauge. The reverse is also true, as using Shock skills will raise your Stamina. The balance will be up to you. As will your path choice and how you want to fight.
Fill your Tenacious Power meter to activate the Breaker’s Brawl King Stance, which gives you a series of bonuses to attack speed and cooldown reductions. Switch into the stance and not only do you get a bonus to outgoing damage from you and your party members for 10 seconds, your movement skill cooldown is reset, attack speed gets a 10% boost and your basic attack is enhanced while it lasts. When using your stamina skill in the stance, your final basic attack hit will occur immediately.
Alternately, you can max Asura energy, fill that gauge, and enter Asura State. Damage boost for you and party members here too, and this state gives you enhanced basic attacks and additional damage increases based on your crit rate. When you activate Sura Destruction, you get additional skill damage. Movement skill and move speed also get a 15% boost. There are some mechanics to balance out these bonuses, but overall, the Asura state is one key to an unforgiving, speedy brawler build.
The full class rundown includes an analysis from community streamer Saintone, and breaks down the possibilities even further.
