King Schmidtz knew that to defend his kingdom from the terrors and chaos of the world he would need a special defense unit that answered only to him.Unlike Rune Knights, which are typically forced into Dragon Breath types of builds, the Royal Guard has the option of playing with builds that involve Banding two or more Royal Guards together; a Royal Guard can play Defense or Offense very effectively, given proper foresight of hisher skill tree.In addition to gaining new and powerful offensive skills, the Royal Guard can easily draw upon its older skills, such as Guard, Spear Quicken, Sacrifice, and Rapid Smiting.This makes for one very powerful, vastly dynamic, and exciting class.
The Royal Guard may choose to have some INT for the SP usage as typically it takes two casts of Overbrand to drop a mob of monsters if the character is not near a wall. High AGI coupled with Spear Quicken will make Vanishing Point a powerful single target DPS skill, usually for MVPing purposes. The more recent Crimson Spears and Lances, at a high refine, are also excellent options, due to their varied elements, to replace certain options. Some RGs may not max Spear Quicken in order to have more points for other skills like Sacrifice and Battle Chant (using RG points for Crusader skills is an option though of course). One can use Moon Slasher to attempt to immobilize monsters, then strike with Overbrand as a combo. For single targets, Shield Press may be a better option to stun. High STR is of greater importance, as it directly influences Cannon Spear s damage formula. Cannon Spear has a longer, though narrower AoE than Overbrand, costs half as much SP, doesnt require a wall for optimum damage, and does not scatter mobs. However, it is important to note its strict AoE path and 2 second cooldown. Due to the skill hitting anything in its path, its easier to gather and lead mobs around for better efficiency. Status effects can be an option to spread through multiple foes. Shield Spell Level 1 will still benefit Cannon Spear, greatly. Any spear recommended for Overbrand will also function well with Cannon Spear. However, Cannon Spear will benefit more from ranged attack boosts, such as Expert Archer enchants and Archer Skeleton cards, for higher damage. The general build doesnt differ greatly from its solo Overbrand or Cannon Spear counterparts. However, Banded focused builds can also consider the Hesperus Lit andor Genesis Ray skills to add additional options that require, at least, three and two Royal Guards, respectively. In addition, each RG must be within a 7x7 radius of each other to benefit from the effects. This can require some coordination, though the combined effort of multiple Royal Guards can lead to powerful damage and tactics. The main requirements needed for this build were SP and Kaahi from a Soul Linker to heal from normal attacks.
