Overview

Datei:Sura.jpg

When Satan Morocc re-emerged, some Monks abandoned their duty as loyal servants of God and chose to seclude themselves to further develop their physical prowess. They were looked down upon as "Power Mongers," but these Monks offered no excuses for their actions. In order to control their newfound power, they lost their humanity in the process. But they never forgot their roots and continue to use their power for righteous deeds calling themselves Suras - also known as Gods of War.

Sura is the third job for Monks and Champions. Suras gain skills that Monks and Champions have been lacking: Area of Effect attacks. Suras also gain a number of new skills and perks, including the ability to begin a combo at will; unique HP/ATK buffs and recovery skills; a maximum Spirit Sphere limit of 15 and two powerful skills based on HP: Tiger Cannon and Gates of Hell. Their ability to completely incapacitate up to 14 enemies for up to 8 seconds through the use of Cursed Circle proves formidable, especially in WoE where Suras are regarded as a core disabling class and necessary in every guild.

Job Change Guide

The Sura Job Change quest is fairly simple and very short. Applicants must:

• Kill 100 Desert Wolves
• Survive a room filled with Monsters for 5 minutes.

See Sura Job Change Guide for detailed information.

Tactics

Tanking Tips:

Reflect

High level monsters tend to change target after they are hit for the first time. Because of this, a tanker Sura is not effective if the killer is not one-shotting the mob. The mob will change targets and will target the killer. Note that this is based on the first hit on the monster. To counter this, a Sura can wear equipment that will reflect damage back to the attacker (the monster). Some examples include:

• High Orc Card
• Bison Horn & Thorny Buckler Set
• Sheep Hat
• Filir Hat
• Mask of Hero
• Strawberry Mouth Guard

With reflect equipment on, once any monster hits the Sura, the Sura will reflect a small amount of damage back to the monster, which does register as the "first hit". Therefore, the monster will not change target to anybody attacking it afterwards, and is "latched" onto the Sura. Boss protocol monsters however do not change target, unless the Sura is moving. This includes MVPs, and also non-MVP monsters that are still boss protocol such as Salamanders.

Knockback

When tanking an MVP with knockback abilities in Mental Strength without a Brynhild (or any other means of knockback prevention), to avoid the risk of being knocked around and having the monster change focus to the rest of the party it is recommended to stand against a wall.
