Author: Friday

Build Type: PvP

Build Purpose: A flexible Rune Knight build that balances ranged Spiral Pierce with melee Bowling Bash, adapting to different PvP situations.


Pros & Cons

  • Pros:
    • High burst damage with both ranged and melee skills
    • High HP pool for survivability
    • Adaptable against Pneuma and Safety Wall
  • Cons:
    • Spiral Pierce is technically ranged, but has short reach compared to true ranged skills
    • Vulnerable to kiting
    • Gear- and switch-intensive playstyle

Stats

  • STR: 500
  • AGI: 140
  • VIT: 199
  • INT: 120 (enough to boost Sight Trasher damage for breaking traps)
  • DEX: 340
  • LUK: Remaining points

Gears & Cards

Headgears

  • Top: +9/+10 35% Demi-Reduction Helm +4% ACD epic enchant(defensive staple) with Fused Pharaoh Card. Alternatives: SPICA, Kiel.
  • Top (Switch): Stormy Headphones ([SPICA]) – Lv.1 Storm Gust for breaking cloak.
  • Mid: Physical damage rare wings – +25% demi-human damage, +30% ACD (best with fused Kiel).
  • Mid(Switch): Variant wings with 30% ACD + anti strip enchant + addax: Use when there is enemy stalker remember to wear garment or shield with antistrip because the enchant doesnt cover strip shield
  • Low: Anti-stone + Anti-sleep aura ([Glorified Orc Hero]) – rare versions like Digital Aura Link preferred.

Armor

  • Main: +10 Divine Aegis ([Demi Freya Card]) – balanced defense and freeze protection with Arctic Seal.
  • Switch: Exile OL Armor ([Demi Freya Card]) – for lifesteal sustain.
  • Option: +10 Nightshade Armor ([Demi Freya Card]) – higher Spiral damage. Pairs with Furious Seyren in boots. (Note: does not stack with Thana.)
  • Option: +10 Lord’s Tunic OL ([Fused Hatii]) – strong against magic users.
  • Note: If not using Divine Aegis, ensure you have Arctic Seal + 500 BG games for anti-freeze effect.

Weapons

  • Main: +10 Halberd of Legend ([NOX + Fused Dracula + White Knight + Tyrant Cecil]) – Ideally with unbreakable enchant. – If not, swap White Knight for [Fallen Valkyrie Card] (unbreakable effect). – Alternative: Replace White Knight with Broken Thanatos Card (lifesteal + DEF pierce). If using Thana, remove Faceworm Queen from boots (does not stack).
  • Alternate: +10 Angel Slayer ([2x Sword Guardian + Fallen Valkyrie + Fused Atroce]) – great for Bowling Bash burst or you can go 3x sword Guardian with Fused atroce for damage or NOX + fused dracula + brokenthana + sword guardian for lifesteal .
  • NOTE: **From the tests i have done tyrant + WKC+ villainous + TGEn is the combination of cards with highest damage for spiral type on weapon, WHILE 2x sword guadrian + Corrupted ERIS+ WKC is the strongest combination of cards for Angel slayer Bowling bash type(DISCLAIMER: these combinations maybe highest in damage but it does not mean theyre the best to use since you have other things to consider such as unbreakable weapon, needing more HIT or lifesteal in your character, so it really stil boils down to prference and situation) .

Shields

  • Main: +8–10 Demi Freya Shield ([Hades Card])
  • Anti-Magic Options: +8–10 Libra-OL ([Hades]) or +8–10 Easter Shield ([Hades])

Garments

  • Main: +10 Protector’s Guard / Daehyon ([Juncea])
  • Offense: Lv.10 Brewmaster ([Venenum/Juncea]) – more damage + lifesteal
  • Defense: +10 Protector’s Guard / Daehyon ([Cautious Howard])
  • Utility: +10 Protector’s Guard / Daehyon ([Gertie]) – enables Close Confine
  • Budget: Asprika (non-slotted)

Shoes

  • Main: +10 Modified Temporal STR Boots ([Faceworm Queen])
  • Alternative: Furious Seyren if using Thana weapon
  • Other Options: Easter Hateful Rabbit (+Kyrie Eleison) – works with Nightshade or Incantation Samurai setups.
  • Enchantments: Bear or Lucky Day. (Lucky Day preferred: easier proc, adds ATK + Perfect Dodge.)

Accessories

  • Main: Warborn or Deadeye Sigil ([Gem of Spiral]) – Battleforged reward (~500 BG games).
  • Secondary: Arctic Seal ([Pneuma Gem]) – requires ~500 BG games for anti-freeze.
  • Alternatives: – Revolver + Shotgun Buffalo combo for lifesteal. – Double Fused Ifrit for Bowling Bash burst. – Evil Glove (Spider Web skill + good for trap removal). – Elite Gloves or spare Warborn/Deadeye Sigils. – Sight Gem accessory (needed for Sight Trasher and trap breaking).

Skills

  • [Spiral Pierce] – Main ranged skill. Shorter reach than typical ranged attacks, but high burst.
  • [Bowling Bash] – Main melee skill; effective in choke points, bypasses Pneuma.
  • [Cloak] – Approach or retreat safely.
  • [Concentration] – Buff: boosts ATK and HIT.
  • [Aura Blade] – Buff: extra damage.
  • [Magnum Break] – +20% damage buff; also clears traps.
  • [Storm Gust] – From Stormy Headphones; reveals cloaked enemies.
  • [Parrying] – Strong defensive skill (sword-only).
  • [Sight + Sight Trasher] – Breaks traps and reveals invisibility (requires Sight Gem).
  • [Spider Web] – From Evil Glove; immobilizes enemies.
  • [Close Confine] – From Gertie garment; locks enemies in place.
  • [HSS: Revitalize] – Extra healing (via HSS scroll).
  • [Joint Break] – Debuff: reduces ATK/ASP, lowers soft DEF (note: makes Thana less effective).
  • [Provoke] – Situational. Reduces DEF (bad vs Thana), but can cancel E-call.
  • Note: Cast Aura Blade + Concentration + Magnum Break together before engaging for max buffs.

Playstyle

  • Open with Spiral Pierce from short range; switch to Bowling Bash once inside melee range or if enemy sets up Pneuma.
  • Use Cloak for mobility—approach casters or retreat when pressured.
  • Switch Storm Gust helm to reveal cloaked enemies, then return to main helm.
  • Trap removal: Use Sight Trasher with INT investment; Evil Glove for Spider Web utility.
  • Defensive Switch: If trapped or pressured, swap to tank set: Divine Aegis + Demi Freya, +10 Protector’s Guard + Cautious Howard, +8 Temporal VIT Boots (Miguel/Infernal Horn), 35% demi-reduction helm, Anti-Stone/Sleep aura, Arctic Seal (Pneuma Gem).
