      New Combat Science

      When you first equip your new Guard Cylinder, you'll notice a small Attribute Marble set of dials on your HUD. In order, these meters represent your current Fire, Water, Wind, and Clay levels.

      • Alchemy Crystals are a thing of the past. If you still have any, go sell them to Eabha in Tailteann.
      • You’ll see the levels of the corresponding meters increase as you exercise the relevant skills.
      • Boost your meters to use Elemental Wave.
      • Utilizing the Golden Time skill will raise the levels of all your Attribute Marbles to 100% for a brief period of time.
      • The Attribute Marbles reset to 0 if your character is defeated or logs off.

      Enhanced Golems

      Double cylinders means increased control of summoned Golems. Having the Guard Cylinder equipped opens up the ability to use Auto AI mode on the control switch with a summoned Golem.

      • The Auto AI mode will open your Golem up to using a variety of randomized attacks.
      • Using Elemental Wave in conjunction with Summon Golem will spawn a Shadow Golem.
      • Using Elemental Wave followed by Summon Golem with a magic golem crystal will summon a Magic Golem.

      Build up your abilities with Elemental Wave to summon more powerful servants:
