Grow Lancer

The Grow Lancer is the third female class after the Fairy Elf and the Summoner. In the story she is the last lancer of the Imperial Knights, who fights with a one-handed lance and a shield and blends the magic of Arca with martial arts. She has high defence and resists elemental attacks better than other classes. Fan sources date her to Season 10.

Her default values from the official guide (she has no Command stat):

Points in Strength give Retaliation damage, a special bonus to skill damage, and make her hit hard both while hunting and in PvP. Points in Agility give Rage damage, another skill-damage bonus, plus fast attack speed and strong elemental damage. Her stats also have specialization bands:

Her own skills are learned from scrolls. Circle Shield instead comes from a quest given by NPC Marlon from level 220.

Her class lances are Lapid, Conmocion, Pluma, Vis, Prickle and Alacran; she also uses some common short weapons and shields. Instead of wings she wears cloaks: the Cloak of Limit from level 180 and the Mirage Lancer's Cloak of Transcendence from level 400. Her ultimate weapon has no level requirement; the Blessed version is made at the Chaos Goblin from a +15 lance with option 16 and Luck, a Hammer of Archangel, 30-jewel bundles of Bless, Soul and Life, and a Jewel of Chaos, at 100%.

As a Mirage Lancer she unlocks her Master Skill Tree, split into three trees of nine ranks each. Some highlights:

• Divinity: defensive nodes such as more SD, set defence, Revenge (returns damage), Steel Armor and Protection Shield, which can block all damage while she holds a shield.
• Retaliation: power-ups for her skills, a 2-second immobilize chance on Magic Pin and Breche, and the Burst skill that temporarily raises the chance to ignore defence.
• Tenacity: lance and shield mastery, Wrath upgrades (its mastery removes the defence loss), recovery on kills and higher Retaliation and Rage damage at the top rank.

The Season 19 Part 1-1 renewal gave her the Combat Power (%) option (from stats, buffs and lances such as the Mastery lances from Bloodangel to Brilliant) and two new skills sold by NPC James, both hitting up to 6 targets within 6 tiles with 3 hits each:

• Oversting: needs 1,470 Agility and 10 points in Magic Pin Mastery; a very fast thrust that leaves an afterimage and deals more damage the fewer targets it hits.
• Wild Breche: needs 1,020 Strength and 10 points in Unleash Breche Mastery; a wide lance swing.
• Changes: Breche now hits up to 6 targets within 4 tiles with no cooldown; Wrath stays on once cast and gives +10% Combat Power for −5% defence; Obsidian lasts much longer; Shining Pick needs 600 Strength.
• New Mastery Lancer Shields from level 400 (Bloodangel) to 1,300 (Brilliant), each adding to the Obsidian effect (+30 up to +225). See Mastery Items.
