The Striker is a very fast class which loves making big explosions with his hits, doing some good AOE damage. It’s a class equipped with two light knuckles who are great for quick blows on enemies. This class is similar to The Wardancer.
The Striker is a close combat class with a big variety of skills which you can use to create elemental orbs to fill up your Identity Bar, leading to dealing massive amount of damage to enemies. It’s not simple filling up the Identity Bar with Elemental Orbs in the right order.
You are needed to create a perfect skill rotation in order to balance the cooldown of the skill and the damage you deal. You are needed to create a rotation where you consistently use damaging skills, filling up that Identity Bar, emptying it out with your main DPS skills and repeat the process until all enemies are gone.

Striker empty Identity bar & Full – Leveling Guide
1. Striker Mobility Skills
Phoenix Advent
Your first mobility skill is called Phoenix Advent. The skill is great for mobility because it increases your jumping range and jumping speed as you level up your skill. This is an AOE ability as well, upon landing, Striker smashes the ground with his fist, knocking up enemies in the air, stunning and damaging them at the same time.
For your Tripods I would strongly recommend taking:
- Wide Attack
- Fierce Attack
- Refined Reflexes
Moon Flash Kick.
Your second skill is called Moon Flask Kick and is used as a mobility skill and also is an identity buffer. It is a short ranged ability. Upon casting the spell you first kick the enemies, a knock on the enemies is followed after that and then you immediately dash towards your enemies, giving them a barrage of kicks and finishing them.
To use this ability as a gap closer, level it to level 7 and use the next following tripod skills:
- Elemental Extraction (So your bar fills up faster)
- Outstanding Mobility
- DPS Skills
Thunder Kick.
Get Thunder Kick to level 4 so you get your tripod Elemental Extraction.
Storm Dragon Awakening
The main reason for this skill is to increase your identity bar. Level it to level 7 and get the following tripod skills:
- Elemental Extraction
- Cracked Blade (So you deal increased damage to mobs)
If you wish to level up another skill, it’s recommended to level it to at least level 4 and get Elemental Extraction.
Lightning Whisper
This skill is very good for cleaning a group of mobs that are surrounding you. It’s recommended to level this skill to level 10 and take the following tripod skills:
- Elemental Extraction (So the Identity bar fills up faster)
- Quickly Prepare (So you can use the skill more often)
- Cracked Blade (So you deal increased damage to mobs)
Sweeping Kick
This is a very high damage skill and is also recommended to level it up to level 10 and getting the following tripod skills:
- Elemental extraction (So the Identity bar fills up faster)
- Dark Split (So you get more critical)
- Extraordinary Kick (So it increases the damage of the skill)
You can also take the Find Weakness tripod skill if you just want to use it as a mob killing skill.
Berserk Circle
This is a basic skill which is a fill up skill and is mainly used to finish up low HP mobs. It’s recommended to level the skill to level 4 and get the following tripod skill:
- Wide Attack
Tiger Emerges
This is the main DPS skill which you can get at level 14. And it’s the skill where you use up your Identity bar for bigger damage. Make sure it’s a priority to level this skill to level 10 and get the following tripod skills:
- Quickly Prepare
- Darkening
- Death Grip
Now that we have all of our 8 skills it’s time to get on to the Esoteric Skill.
Spiral Blast
This skill charges a fist towards the enemies, hitting and knocking them on the ground. Its recommended to level the skill to level 7 and get the following tripod skills:
- Find Weakness (So you can use it against bosses)
- Elemental Extraction (So you sometimes get that Identity bar that you used for the skill)
It’s not recommended to use skills that use two bars because you can’t fill them fast enough.
It’s not advised to replace Tigers Emerges with any other skills due to the fact that it’s very fast to use and does the most damage.
