Transcendence

From Elwiki
Information: This article is currently under development. Please be patient while we're adding the finishing touches!

Transcendence is described as a "3rd job" despite still being the same class. At level 70 and 2nd job, players are able to "job advance" to bring out their abilities beyond their limits to unlock new skills and enhancements to existing abilities.

General Information

Characters can only advance to their transcendent state if they are over level 70 and completed their second Job Change. To advance, the character must complete the advancement quest available at the Town Board or use the Item Mall item Book of Transcendence: God's Will. If the character has already reached transcendence, they can change their class with the Transcendence Job Change Ticket.

Upon advancing to this new transcendent state, the skill tree will be expanded to include the new Transcendent skills. Two of these skills will be locked and can only be obtained by completing the corresponding Skill Quest or by purchasing the Forbidden Secret Manual from the Item Mall.

Additionally, you will be able to use two new Transcendent Skill Slots. One of these is obtained for free upon advancing while the other requires the Skill Slot Expansion (Transcendent) item, which can be bought from the Item Mall or from other players.


Benefits of Transcendence

The new Awakening animation, with a new character Cut-in.

Awakening Animation

Upon advancing to the transcendent state, the awakening animation will be modified. The animation will receive new visuals and will be accompanied with a voice over and a special Transcendence Awakening Skill Cut-in.


Awakening Buff

While in Awakening, players will receive a 30% damage increase instead of 20%.

In addition to the damage increase during Awakening, skills that were placed in one of the two Transcendent Skill Slots will, at random, flash in a yellow color to signify that the "Transcendence" buff has activated. This buff lasts for 10 seconds and will reset the cooldown of both skills in the Transcendent Skill Slots when it is triggered, as well as cause those skills to deal 20% more damage than usual upon activation, in turn removing the buff. While Hyper Actives and the Wedding Skill can be placed into these slots, the Transcendence buff will not have any effect on them.

The new Awakening icon and Transcendence buff icon.


Additional Weapon Stats

Upon completing Transcendence, all weapons with a level requirement of 70 or higher will receive additional Physical Defense and Magical Defense stats.

I hope this note helps someone seeking to reach transcendence... I was afraid. I wasn't sure if I was ready for the new power. What was the Goddess' intention on sending down these fragments down to Elrios? There was nothing else I could do but to take her test.
