New Class Gunslinger Finally Debuts

The star of this week's massive update is the new class, the Gunslinger. As the third ranged class following the Night Ranger and Destroyer, this one is clearly built for PvP. Armed with dual pistols by default, they even whip out a shotgun for specific skills. It is a debuff-heavy class that reduces enemy attack speed, cast speed, and HP potion recovery, while simultaneously buffing itself with increased attack damage and critical hit rates.

With the Gunslinger's arrival, the class change season is upon us. The key here is the currency; you can purchase the class change ticket and token using gold. It is a golden opportunity for a fresh start at a bargain. Looking back at our Meca Ranking data, this is usually when players scramble to swap classes. The window closes on December 3 at 4:59 AM, so if you're on the fence, make your move now.

Raven 2 has also expanded the weapon categories to include guns, with a total of 43 items spanning 10 common, 12 uncommon, 12 rare, 7 heroic, and 2 legendary grades. Naturally, new collections requiring these items have been added. Even if you aren't maining the Gunslinger, you'll want to farm these to boost your stats.

Class Balance Tweaks and New Parnak Weapons!

Shall we look at the other patches? Raven 2 has adjusted the balance for the Assassin, Elementalist, and Divine Caster. For the Assassin, the 'Checkmate' and 'First Attacker' skills received some love; the former has a shortened animation, while the latter now stacks the 'Salmu' effect more effectively. The Elementalist’s 'Blizzard Circle' has seen its cooldown slashed from 195 seconds to 120 seconds.

As for the Divine Caster, the 'Goddess Heart' and 'Divine Heart' have been tweaked—though note that the latter is a Parnak weapon conversion skill. It keeps the existing 'buff correction for self and targeted party members' effect, but now adds a protection buff for the remaining party members.

The Ancient Citadel drop tables have also been updated to include legendary-grade Parnak weapons. Once upgraded to +8, these weapons transform specific class skills into something special. You can check the details in the in-game skill menu or the official Raven 2 community patch notes. Expect the heat in the Ancient Citadel to reach boiling point.

Sharing Questions & Strategies

Q. Can you recommend a server and class for a new Raven 2 player?
A. You should definitely consider the Legend World in the global region.

Perhaps it is the Gunslinger effect? The Raven 2 forums have been flooded with new players asking for advice. User 'Joyu' is looking into the Deathbringer, while others like 'Min-ih' are asking more granular questions: Is it better to start on the boosting Legend World, and is the Destroyer a viable class for a F2P player who just wants to grind? User 'OldAndSickBird2' chimed in, recommending the Night Ranger, Destroyer, or Divine Caster for those keeping their wallets closed.

For the server question, the consensus is the new Legend World in the global region. It is a boosted world with various growth support events running. Log in to receive the 'Legend Start Box,' and keep hitting goals to earn heroic gear and summon tickets. Those who reach level 70 within the period will secure a legendary costume summon ticket. Aim for 70 and gear up.

In the Spotlight: Hot Events

A Big Festival wouldn't be complete without Special and Ultimate Coupons!

Raven 2 is hosting a flurry of events this week. Let's focus on the Korean region festivities. The most important one is the 'Grand Festival Ultimate Attendance.'

There is also the 'Grand Festival Special Weekly Mission 1.' Clear 6 basic missions to unlock the final reward. The rewards are essence of various colours, and the 'all-clear' bonus is the 'Raven 2 Special Coupon: Rune Fragment.' You'll need to collect 4 of these to craft a full coupon, suggesting more events are on the horizon.

Events to celebrate the Gunslinger's release are also here

We can't forget the Gunslinger-specific events. First, the 'New Gunfighter’s Shooting Practice Mission.' Clear these by taking down 10,000 monsters in dungeons and 5,000 monsters of a specific race. The individual reward is a flat 300 Stigma Essence—a great chance to upgrade your Stigma.

The 'Gunslinger Growth Support Attendance' only requires a single login. Head to the in-game event page to open your box, which contains one Hellish Advanced Heavenstone Selection Box and one '[Wilderness Wanderer] Costume Summon Ticket.' Treat yourself to a new look.

If you live for competitive skirmishes, pay attention to the 1.5-year anniversary

The Raven 2 Korean server has hit its 1.5-year mark. It wasn't highlighted much in the patch notes, but two events are running. First, guilds that participated in the 1st or 2nd battlefields in the November 22 skirmishes will receive Golden Bullets based on tournament results. If you made it to the Round of 16 or higher, the bullets will be delivered to your guild storage on January 24. These are exchange materials valid until December 23 at 4:59 AM.

The '1.5-Year Grand Festival Login Reward' is a simple attendance event running until November 26. Log in between 12:00 PM and midnight to receive Golden Bullets, Terramond, and special Abyssal Bloodstone fragments via mail. Note that this does not apply to the Legend World.
