Overview
Swordman

The Swordman is a battle-hardened melee fighter and the gateway class for those who want to stand on the front line and take hits for their party. On a classic 1x Pre-Renewal server the class shines as a dependable PvM farmer and party tank — high VIT keeps you alive through extended grinding, STR drives consistent physical damage, and Bash provides a straightforward yet hard-hitting attack rotation. As the foundation for both Knight and Crusader, careful allocation of stats and skills from the very start shapes the entire career ahead.
