Re: Legendary Berserker's Advent

To contest against Altair in PvP, Kieran understood the need for tremendous and sustainable damage per second (DPS). Therefore, he could only point his attention to the only relatively high damage yet low cooldown skill in his arsenal—Force Slash.

Initially, this skill was infinitesimally close to reaching Lv.6 after its constant usage against Grifear and even the Giant Wolves. Thus, this small fight against the Shadow Cartel’s insignificant members gave Kieran the edge needed to reach that level.

However, a single level wouldn’t be enough to bridge the gap between his and Altair DPS because of the Rare Weapons in Altair’s possession. As soon as he activated the item’s ability, his DPS would skyrocket.

Thus, Kieran used the remaining 4 Skill Points to increase Force Slash yet again. As a result, its current parameters greatly satisfied Kieran.

「Force Slash (Lv.8)

Skill Rank: E Rank Active

Mastery (00.00%)

Skill Description: Deals 365% of the user’s Attack Power by focusing their strength into their arms and unleashing a strike powerful enough to produce a wave of force accompanied by a mighty gale that causes the «Knockback» effect. The strong gale deals 50% of the slash’s damage to all enemies in a 4-meter radius.

Consumption: 3 Mana Points

Prerequisites: Warrior Class, «Warrior’s Aura»

Cooldown: 7 seconds 」_-.

With the current cooldown of 7 seconds, the number of times Kieran could execute the skill increased from 6 to 8! Given that Altair’s skills were generally limited by high cooldowns, forcing him to rely upon swift basic attacks, Kieran’s situation was the opposite!

‘It should more or less neutralize Altair’s advantage,’ Kieran thought before closing the notification before his eyes.

Meanwhile, his stream was thrown into an uproar. Most of them didn’t believe their eyes when they saw how high one of Kieran’s skills was!

Just what type of Skill Points did he receive to reach this level?!

The people present in Kieran’s stream gradually began to understand why he cleared the Forest of Beast without suffering any deaths and why he could unleash so much damage upon sturdy enemies.

However, they’d most likely pale with fright if they learned he had a skill that increased his damage by 30%! What’s more, both of these skills were growing extremely close to leveling up since Kieran never battled without incorporating them into his combat rotation.

Eventually, Kieran closed in on the nearest cluster of healers. Now that his Force Slash was strong enough to cause Area of Effect (AoE) damage, he had zero reservations about committing a justified massacre.

Whoosh!

Kieran arrived behind the group of healers with the rapid movements of Charge. His heavy blade fell before any of the Healers could notify nearby members about someone trespassing in the area.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Given that Priests were as fragile as glass dolls and possessed pitiful Health, Kieran only needed one Force Slash to slay all of them in his vicinity. Over ten such Priests were wiped out in an instant. However, because these Priests weren’t a part of the earlier party, they weren’t included in the PK Defender System.

As a result, Kieran’s name immediately turned a pale red color, threatening to turn entirely red. This meant Kieran was on the cusp of acquiring 2nd Degree Infamy, which only needed 11 registered kills to acquire.

Conversely, Altair sifted through the ranks of the opposing cluster of Priests like a grim reaper claiming lives with every swing of his daggers. Most of the attacks were aimed at vitals because of the Critical passive all Thieves possessed after Lv.15. Within seconds, Altair accrued 8 kills.

These counters appeared in the corner of Kieran and Altair’s vision, accompanied by a red skull with hollow eyes and blood seeping from the empty eye sockets.

Behind them, the rest of the party simply continued to s
