Ask Inven Global Anything on Black Desert Online's newest character, the Mystic

 

Hello, this is Inven Global.


As you may know, the female Striker aka the Mystic is coming to BDO KR soon. Fortunately, we got a chance to pre-play the Mystic before her actual release. We can play her and level her up from July 20th to July 23rd.


We thought you may have some questions about the Mystic, so we are holding an AMA session for NA/EU players.


Please post your questions in the comment section below and we'll answer them as soon as possible.


Thank you!

    How similarly does she play to Striker? Is it just a straight female import?

      Think of them like Musa and Maehwa. They share some skills like Adamantine, Twisted Collision, and Crouching Wolf, but some skills are exclusive to the Mystic. For example, her [Shift+LMB] Skill is not Knee Hammer, and it also has different effect. Combo commands are similar to the Striker, but skill effects are not.

    Are her damaging combos faster or slower than pre-awakened striker, what form of cc does she primarily use

      Her combos seem to be faster than the Striker's combos. CC skills are similar to those of the Striker. The Mystic also has many forward guard skills like Adamantine and Twisted Collision. One of her primary combo includes her [Shift+RMB] skill, which will Stun the targets when the hit is successful. The skill will also has Knock Down, Down Smash, and Down Attack.

    she seams to use some quick jabs in her trailer and kicks that Striker didn't have, is it just redesign of some of Strikers skills or do they feel different to use, in that sense does she feel quicker as the attacks seams to be?

      They do have some different skills but if you have played pre-awakening Striker then you can get used to the Mystic easily. You can't use the exact same combos that you used for the Striker, but they are not very different. Her combos seem a bit faster that the Striker's combos.

    Does she have the ranged kamehameha like skill that Striker has? If not what is it's replacement, does she not have a ranged attack at all? And is her damage quite high overall?

      Unfortunately, Mystic does not have any ranged skills. But her damage is pretty high overall.

    How does she compare to pre-awakened Striker in terms of HP/SP management? Just as self-sufficient or worse?

      @Victoria_W

      Mystic has Adamantine so you won't have any WP insufficiency problem. Her combat style is similar to that of the Striker. She can recover HP&WP with Roaring Tiger and has a lot of forward guard skills that will add to her survivability.

    Does Mystic have the same grab as Striker?

    • 0

      level 1 Yullie

      @Strelitzia

      Mystic has a grab skill but not the same one as the Striker. Mystic's grab skill only has one level. It will grab the target, and knock the target down with a knee kick. The key command is E while using Flash Step, unlike the Striker where you only have to press E.

      @Yullie

      * Correction: You can use the skill either way (E or E during Flash Step)

    Is the non awakening weapon the same as striker? or a separate weapon?

    • 0

      level 1 Yullie

      @avnos

      Yes. Her mainhand weapon is Gauntlet and her offhand weapon is Vambrace, just like the Striker.

    Does mystic rely on grabs in pvp? Does she feel like another 1v1 style pvp class like a striker or more versatile? Any iframes, super armor or a true block? 
    • 0

      level 1 Yullie

      @ccazd92

      Like the Striker, Mystic is strong in 1vs1 PvP. Her grab skill also has knock down effect, which is very effective in 1vs1 situations. However, initiating a combo with Twisted Collision and then using the grab skill will make the combo flow more smoothly. She has a lot of super armor and forward guard skills and her primary skills also have super armor and forward guard effects. Some of her mobility skills make her invincible while moving, so it's not hard to dodge enemy attacks.

    Will there be any armor / Pearl armor sets for her without high heels? Plzzzz
    I've always been interested in the female characters but I do not want to do battle in formal shoes.

      level 1 Yullie

      @Noheelsplz

      This is the only Pearl Costume that she has for now and she is wearing high heels in this costume. Unfortunately, all of her armors also have high heels. We'll have to wait until more costumes are released and hope some of them do not have high heels :(

    Can you give any information about the Mystic's awakening (will it be water element based as opposed to the striker's fire element etc.) and when will the trailer for the Mystic's awakening be released?
    • 0

      level 1 Yullie

      @Jaffer

      Unfortunately, no information on her Awakening has been revealed yet. As for the Striker, his Awakening came out about 1 month after the character's release, so we can guess that her Awakening will be available at the end of next month. We'll let everyone know as soon as the Mystic's Awakening is out!
