If you’re a fan of tanking in MMORPGs, the Warrior is the class for you in Royal Quest Online. This role loves getting up close and personal, dishing out solid DPS while shrugging off the damage even groups of enemies inflict.
While primarily a tank, the Warrior can prove pretty handy in a DPS role. You can use a wide variety of weaponry, but you’re best off using a Spear and Shield, as many of the class’s skills require them.
Warriors can taunt, debuff opponents, and buff the party with a variety of auras.
Royal Quest Online Warrior
Here’s what the Warrior in Royal Quest Online offers at a glance.
- Melee combatant
- Specialises in Spear and Shield
- Deals decent damage
- A combination of DoT, AoE, and single target damage
- Taunts opponents
- AoE party buffs
- Can provide a wide range of debuffs
The Warrior is, first and foremost, a tank. With a range of taunts, increased defence via skills and the use of a Shield, and a wide range of debuffs, this class is best placed on the frontlines.
However, you can specialise in DPS if you’re willing to forgo a bunch of your defensive abilities. The Warrior has a range of AoE and DoT attacks that can cause considerable damage to their opponents.
They’re also adept at mounted combat, allowing you to move quickly in and out of combat, and chase down their opponents with ease.
