The Rian tribe

In the forest at the eastern tip of the continent, the Rian have lived peacefully alongside beasts and animals for a very long time. Theirs is a family-based society, homely and simple-hearted, and they love peace.

Their hunting skill with the spears they call Nang is excellent. At the center of the village stands a great tree, Napo, the guardian of the village, and the Rian make offerings to it in their ceremonies. They believe gods live in the mountains, the rivers, the springs and the forests.

The tribe keeps to itself, living a nomadic life with little contact with the outside world.

• They use a herb called Neng to heal themselves outside of combat.
• They are skilled with melee weapons and with ranged alternatives.
• They prize Strength, Dexterity and defense, without giving up their love of peace and harmony.
• Their combat style rewards quick movement and reading the fight.

Weapons

Rian is the daughter of the village elder and his first follower. Her fighting style is agile and precise, which is why she can carry a Nang or a Dagger for close work and throw Darts to keep her distance.

Xena

Xena represents the Rian warrior class. She meets enemies with complete confidence and a wide range of answers. Her Dart skills make her an excellent ranger, dealing heavy damage from a distance, and her Nang lets her step into melee when the fight demands it.

Nang

The Nang has the most versatile skill set and the slowest attack speed, and people pick it anyway because its raw attack power is very high. Dexterity drives that power, so a full Dexterity build gives the highest damage and the highest crit the Nang can reach.

Putting points into Strength instead trades some of that attack for defense, which is worth having when a fight goes badly.

Dart

Darts hit hard but they are among the slowest of the long-distance weapons. Sense and Strength both raise the damage.

A pure Sense build gives the Dart its highest attack and crit, at the cost of locking you into the Dart. Going into Strength instead gives solid attack with more defense, and leaves you free to switch between Dart and Dagger whenever you like.

Dagger

Daggers are the fastest short-distance weapon. Their attack power swings from hit to hit, so the damage is less predictable, and players use them anyway for the speed. Strength is what raises it.

Because a Dagger build stats Strength, the Dart comes along for free. Group monsters up with the Dart, then finish them with the Dagger.

The Dagger's area of effect is very limited until DoT 4. Until then, expect to fight one target at a time.

The game is in Beta. As the Rian are still perfecting their combat strategies, you may run into technical issues or balance changes. Your feedback and patience are welcome while we work on it.
