Hero (PSO2)

From Arks-Visiphone
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Wielding three types of weapons, the Hero (ヒーロー, Hr) is a powerful Advanced Class whose true power is being a master of all. With balanced growth in S-ATK, R-ATK, and T-ATK, as well as the ability to quickly switch between weapons even during the heat of battle, the Hero controls the battlefield with masterful strength and skill.

Unlike other classes, Hero does not provide base stat bonuses when reaching Lv75.

Properties of Hero

The Hero class is a special Class with several properties unique to them.

Unlocking Hero

To unlock the Hero class, the player must complete a Client Order from Koffie. To complete this Client Order, the player must earn three Titles which each require reaching Level 75 in a specific Class Type. The player must earn a Title for a Striking, Ranged, and Technique Class in order to complete the Client Order.

The Classes that qualify for each category are as follows:

Other Properties

  • Hero Photon Arts do not require a Photon Art Disc to learn, and do not need to be leveled.
  • The Hero cannot use Innate Photon Arts or Techniques that are pre-installed into certain Swords, Twin Machineguns, or Talises. However, Innate Photon Arts and Techniques installed onto other types of weapons may still be used.
  • The Hero has alternate Client Orders for releasing the Level Cap that are separate from the normal Level Cap Client Orders. In addition, these Client Orders unlock Titles that are used to unlock the Level Cap, meaning the player only has to complete the Client Orders once per account to open the Hero Level Caps on all characters.
  • The Hero cannot select a Subclass. Likewise, the Hero class cannot be chosen as a Subclass.
  • Certain Potentials, such as Potential.png Sealing Dragon's Roar, Skill Rings, such as R / Attack Advance, and buffs such as Elemental PP Restorate Field have no effect on Hero.

Class Weapon Overview

The Hero uses the Sword Sword, Twin Machineguns Twin Machine Guns, and Talis Talis weapons.

Sword

A heavy, powerful greatsword. Unlike the Hunter's Sword, the Hero wields its Sword in one hand, and is capable of strong, yet rapid attacks that quickly rack up damage. Hero's Sword is highly mobile, and has great single-target damage.

When used to activate Hero Time Finish, the user unleashes a flurry of advancing sword strikes, followed by an immensely powerful downwards slash.

The Sword's Weapon Action is Energy Blast. When the Weapon Action button is pressed, the user fires bullets of energy at a target. These bullets deal S-ATK damage and restore PP when they strike targets. Provided the proper Skills are acquired, this Weapon Action can be held to charge even stronger bullets that deal more damage and have a wider area of effect.

Twin Machineguns

A twin pair of semi-automatic pistols. A balanced weapon, the Twin Machineguns are capable of both single-target attacks as well as crowd control. Unique to the Hero, the Twin Machineguns boast a strong normal attack that consumes PP to activate and can be held down indefinitely as long as the user still has PP remaining.

When used to activate Hero Time Finish, the user twirls their Twin Machineguns, then releases an annihilating burst of energy that vaporizes anything near the user.

The Twin Machineguns' Weapon Action is Reload. By pressing the Weapon Action button, the user will twirl their Twin Machineguns to rapidly restore PP. The button can be held down to continue twirling and continuously restore PP. If this Weapon Action is activated during any Just Attack circle, this initiates a Just Reload and charges PP even faster than normal.

Talis

A handheld device that creates cards capable of casting Techniques. Unlike the Force and Techer, the Hero is capable of using Photon Arts with the Talis, although they lose the ability to cast Techniques using the Talis' cards as an anchor point. Hero's Talis is a more support-oriented weapon, capable of debilitating enemies with attacks while staying out of the line of fire.

When used to activate Hero Time Finish, the user generates a field of energy that pulls enemies towards it before decimating everything within its area of effect with a storm of light.

The Talis' Weapon Action is Agile Shift. When the Weapon Action button is pressed, the user throws a Talis card known as a Marking Shot, signified by a pulsing orange target marker. When the Weapon Action button is pressed again, the user instantly teleports to the card's location. The card can be free-aimed with the Third-Person Camera, is capable of targeting enemies, and will persist even if the user changes weapons.

Gunslash

These are universal weapons for all classes, which can switch between striking attacks that scale off of S-ATK S-ATK and shooting attacks that scale off of R-ATK R-ATK.

Hero Mag

Default skill. A percentage of your MAG's total ATK stats are converted into ATK.

What this skill actually does is sum up all of the Mag's ATK values and apply that value to all of them. For example, if a Mag has 150 S-ATK and 50 R-ATK, this skill will make it have 200 S-ATK, R-ATK and T-ATK.

Do note that this skill only works on ATK values. If your Mag has DEX or any DEF stats leveled, they will not count for this conversion.
