Playing this class

Swordmaster is worth mastering first for endgame sword users. Astra strikes 5 times at 50% damage per hit for a burst of damage. The class also grants Sword Crit +7 and growth modifiers of Speed +20, Dexterity +15, and Strength +10 percentage points, supporting continued sword and Speed-focused combat.

Swordmaster exam screen: the lower right describes Astra as 5 hits at 50% damage each and range 1. The lower left lists recommended level 45 and Sword A; the current pass rate is still 0%.

Suitable characters

  • Dietrich can move from Shido. If Strength is low, take a Warrior detour for a dozen or more levels before returning to swords.
  • Jester improves Strength as Brigand or Warrior first, then takes sword classes to use naturally high Speed.
  • Diego also follows Myrmidon → Shido → Swordmaster. Guzran's sword/spear route connects too, with spear access in the latter two classes.

Training requirements

Recommended level 45 and Sword A. Complete Mars's request first:

  1. Restore Mars's temple and enter the main sanctuary to accept the request to recover the Golden Helm.
  2. Defeat the enemies above in Nemea Great Cave. Victory requires a rout; the boss drops the quest item.
  3. Report with the Golden Helm, then take the qualification exam after the unlock. Challenge the priest separately for the trial weapon.

Uses swords and spears, with base Movement 5 and Combat Arts +3. Learn Astra through mastery and equip it as a combat art. Check damage and durability before attacking; ordinary attacks do not all become five-hit sequences.

When to stay or move on

Obtain Astra, then decide whether to stay or move into The Blade. Swordmaster already suffices for ordinary sword users. For extra Strength, Dietrich can master Divine Might in The Eternal, then return to Swordmaster and free the divine-class slot for someone else.
