Continued from Windslayer
PVP, or Player vs. Player, is a central component of Windslayer. It is actually needed in order to complete job advancements, and is probably the most fun part of the game.
In PVP, the worst enemy of all players is lag. As Windslayer PVP is real-time, a slow internet connection will cause your character to miss and be hit more than you would expect. The graphical representation on-screen of your character’s relative position is not necessarily what others see – and each Windslayer client calculates the damage done to a character on its own, then uploads it to the Outspark central server.
The six classes in windslayer are suited for different types of battle.
Mages, who do the most damage, attack slowly and only at medium range – meaning that it is harder to defeat faster foes with more health. Mages also tend to have less total HP as compared to the other characters, leading to early death.
Archers, on the other hand, have the weapons with the highest range. It makes it very annoying to face an archer, as they are no slouch at dealing damage, either.
Monks are ideally suited for attacking multiple foes at once. They have a short range, but an incredibly frustrating rate-of-fire (at least from their victim’s perspective). A monk can easily deal 4-5 attacks in a row before switching to the next enemy, all within a few seconds.
Rogues are probably the most… interesting class to battle. They often use a combination attack similar to Stun+stab+stab+stab+stab+Poison, which deals a significant amount of damage. However, when faced with a coordinated attack, a rogue often is unable to overcome the inability to easily attack more than one enemy.
Clerics are the support class of PVPers. They can cast heal and transfer MP to their teammates, giving them an edge over their opponents. In direct battle, clerics must resort to strong attacks (a level 7 skill) and healing to live, and the game often ends in a draw.
Warriors are the so-called “tanks” of Windslayer PVP. They both deal and take a huge amount of damage over time. They absorb attacks to allow the powerful spells cast by mages through, while simultaneously freezing/burning/slashing their opponents to pieces.

In the comments, leave your own personal strategies that have worked out for you.
Yaay PvP section. Archers are definitely the best at PvP. They have like no weaknesses. I just stand far away and shoot. And if the opponent’s on a different level I just use jump shot.
DOUBLE/FIRE ARROWS FTW!!!!
For rogues, you can’t hide and then wait til someone goes close enough. You have to jump right near them and immediately poison, otherwise they notice and dash away or attack you.
Note: Do not hide during 1v1 pvp…. Everybody will hate you.
Archers: Easy as it can get, spam arrows, ks everyone, and still everyone likes you.
Btw, for those of you who are wondering how to change your sword color. You have to have enough rep points to do so. You get them by taking part in battles and either winning or killing other people. First you get a fist, and after 1-2 rounds, you will obtain a black sword. Later, with enough rep points , your sword will turn blueish-silver, and then gold. After gold its two gold sword crossed together, meaning you are ultimate pwnage. Like me

GL to everyone ^.^

I’m in love (:
Any class can become a tank through prodigious use of moneyz and potions.
2d combat archery = whee, hitting people is easy as staying in place or jumping! Now you don’t have to worry about all that aiming crap!
Graphics make fanservice look creepy.
never played windslayer before in my life.. maybe that’s why i’m so clueless haha
informative
I started playing and now cant stop
i got addicted to it in like 10 min so everyone can try
it is sooooo much better than maplestory
Potions have cooldowns, so they don’t make up for a lack of health.
Actually after a gold sword it’s Two Black swords on a Gold Background.
Archers may or may not be pure fail when pitted against an opponent that knows when and how to use block effectively.
Archers are, indubitably, the best class to play on when you are lagging.
Even block can’t help if you’re a mage and lagging – the range is to high, and you lag too much to cast back.
