Tormented Tips

[Tormentedsaw]

I have decided to post tips daily or whenever, most of these will be basic knowledge, but if you don't know them they should be pretty helpful/ cool.
=======================================================
Tip #1: Cussing
Although it won't help you much in a game, you can cuss with getting the LOVE. It's simple place a '/" (quotation/aposthope) between your words. Rakion doesnt show this charater ingame, so fu'ck looks like fuck.
=======================================================
Tip #2: Falling without damage.
You can fall without recieving any damage, about 3-4 seconds before you hit the ground, start repeatily pressing space until you hit the ground. This usually works, as long as you press fast enough. And this is much better then using your invinsable attack (mouse1+ mouse2) as you are open to grip.
=======================================================
Tip #3: Predicting damage already done to enemy.
To predict how much health any enemy has, you must know the stage of armor knock-off.
1st: Full armor, Percent life left= 100-85%

2nd: Helm. Knocked off, Percent life left= 85-55%

3rd: Enemy's right shoulder armor knocked off, Percent life left= 55-45%

4th: Enemy's left shoulder armor knocked off, Percent life left= 45-30%

5th: Enemy's right gauntlet knocked off, Percent life left= 30-25%

6th: Enemy's left gauntlet knocked off, Percent life left= 25-0%

I used a Blacksmith because it is easiest to see the difference on them. On Mages and Ninjas, this is practically useless. It is way hard to see the difference.
=========================================================
Tip#4: Hurting golem without sword.
The master golem is not totally invinsable, when you don't have sword, each archer does about 2 damage to him, so if the master golem is low on health, and gold sword is dead, shoot it!
=========================================================
Tip#5: Console and FPS control.
Well if you have not noticed this, when you press F4, you will get a little message, that says either Fps control, or Console control. These are two ways to control your charater. In fps when you move your aimer, your charater turns to stay facing your aimer. In consule, you can move your aimer around, with your charater not moving. Each has one distinct advantage. In consule, it is possible to move forward, but have the camera looking in back of you, so you can hit pursuers with ease. In Fps, it is easily to fight in close quarters, and is more noob friendly, try them out
=========================================================
Tip #6: What to max out.
Well you probulary hear this alot "what stats do i maxed this" here are your answers. Obviously its up to you, but here is what you should and shouldnt max out.

Basic- no, why would you even want you pull out your sword, your an archer!

Range- yes, makes your arrows do more damage (durr)

Special- no, again, you don't need your sword.

Grip- no, see above

Cell destruct- maybe- usually archers shouldnt get the golem (the main use of cd) But with high cell destruct archers can be alright at killing the golem.

Max health- yes, but wouldn't recommend it. Becuz maxing armor is much better then health

Max armor- yes, helps more then health

atk speed- no, atk speed only helps short ranged atks

move speed- if you want, movement isnt necessary, but it wont hurt.

Cell points- if you have high costing cells.
=====================================================
Tip #7: Those pesky body campers.
Don't you just hate it when you are knocked down and your enemy stays next to your body and hits you while you are coming up, well I can fix that. First off lets go over the ways an enemy would "camp your body".
1. moves next to your body and blocks. This is only a minor annoyance, you can simpley roll away from him, or you can roll toward him and if you get in back of him enough, you can do your arrow twirl and hit him. You can also just go right at him, your arrow twirl will hit him back.
2. Does invinsable attack (mouse1+ mouse2 in short range) over your body. This is a bit tricky because if you come up and arrow twirl him, you will get hit and your enemy with not (invinsable attack). Simple wait and if he is stupid and does it too early, when he is done and recovering (since it takes so long) come up and arrow twirl.
3. Jumps and jump attks you when you get up. This is pretty annoying, but all you have to do is roll away from him.
4. Stands next to you and holds special, roll away, or roll towards him and hit him if he is close enough.
==========================================================
Tip #8: Changing word binds.
Do you know how your f5- f8 keys say stuff? You can change what they say. After you loggin go to "Game setting" and I THINK it is the second page.. also there is sum other cool stuff to mess with there.

Oh, I have a useful little tip that I just found out yesterday-ish. Whenever you get knocked down by a blacksmith, and they do that obnoxious thing where they spin over your body so when you get up you are smacked. Well (it worked every time for me) when they did that and i got up and did the spin move while going up, i was sent flying away from them, unharmed. Well, you probably all knew that, but but their might be a guy like me that doesnt know (oh i think it also works on everything else from my knowledge).

[cola]

awesome list of hints lol

i didnt know the cursing thing haha and the golem thing is cool too

[mistertwenty1]

ya, i always wondered how the guys cussed. they would always be like "sh*t sh*t, fu*k fu*k" and a series of other curses.

[Postman]

What about when a blacksmith is doing his splash charge over you? I always get hit by those and they hurt a lot

[mistertwenty1]

splash charge? im just assuming that is spinny move. i swear every time they do that and i get up and do my spin move i dont get hurt and im just sent flying away.

[Tormentedsaw]

its the charge attk or special, mouse2

[Postman]

right, but how do you avoid it?

[mistertwenty1]

oh i see, the best way is either A) move out of the way from the attack or B) if close enough, go right next to him and do the spin move. you will always be able to do one of them unless you are at an akward angle towards a wall.

[zhangzheng]

useful cussing hints plus a few others about the fps or console

[omgshdow]

what are your tips against ninjas?
cause i often times find myself chased by a ninja who wont quit, yes i can dodge and keep running, but that wont solve the problem, i sometimes get a shot off at them, but it is tricky if theyr good

[PureHeadShot]

Against warriors and smiths I would continue using range, but if it's a good ninja, what works for me is to shift to melee. It's easier to break the ninja rapid single whack with melee shots cuz they don't need as much time to fire as arrows. Plus when they miss grab you can pwn them with archer rap which is not that bad (sure does more damage than a single bow shot)

[PureHeadShot]

archer grab*

[PureHeadShot]

Armor and health help in different ways. In golem games armor would be better as it helps prevent your armor from being shot off. (which I think removes the benefit on some of them) however in death team/solo games, health might be better because you can repeatedly run and heal and having a higher health capacity will reduce the number of time you need to make a health run.

[r4ng3rd4ng3r]

In reply to Tip #6. After you max range GO FOR MOVE SPEED, it helps archer THE MOST. For example, if someone is chasing you hmm.... say warrior, you can run away a bit shoot, and then run again. You can also get to good sniping spots faster, get out of a close ranger situation untouched... it just is plain GOOD.
