What is a Nova?

Novas are legendary Elven heroes whose name means, "One that will save the world from darkness". Lire is Eryuell Island’s very first Nova.
Although Kaze’aze has been defeated, a new crisis threatens the Continent of Bermesiah: the Elves must confront Dark Anmon’s invading forces if they wish to restore peace to the land. The Elven elders of Eryuell Island discovered ancient weapon schematics in the Kastulle Ruins and incorporated what they learned to develop a new, more powerful weapon, the Composite Bow.
After Lire defeats Kaze’aze and Dark Anmon and completes the test detailed in the Kastulle Ruins’ weapon schematics, the Elven elders will reward her with the new Composite Bow and the title of Nova. Lire, as Eryuell Island’s first Nova, is an inspiration to all Novas who come after her.

Nova's Characteristics

Novas are Elven archery masters who move with complete freedom and wield Composite Bows which combine the strengths of a crossbow and giant bow. This allows for the rapid multi-shots of the crossbow and the powerful finishing blows of the giant bow to be incorporated in devastating combo attacks that can swiftly defeat enemies before they can approach a Nova. Her high jumps and agile dashes are essential to the Nova’s basic combat strategy of confusing and maintaining distance from enemies. Even when surrounded, Novas can use short-range skills to break through the enemy line.

Nova Skills

General

Basically a fusion of a Archer, Crossbowman, and an Arch Ranger.
Some of Nova's skills are somewhat reminiscent of those from her earlier jobs, but with new flair and different graphics.

Regular

Charged Shot
(Grade 1) Nova’s 1st grade attack. Forcefully push back a nearby enemy by ramming them with your shoulder; then rapidly fire three arrows, followed by one powerful arrow.
  • Dash Attack + 3 Arrows + Charged Arrow.
  • Most people use it for the arrows, more than the dash attack.
  • Arrows can still be blocked, but leads to a lot delay.
Blood Rain
(Grade 2) Nova’s 2nd grade attack. Allows the Nova to quickly shoot multiple arrows above her head. The arrows will shower down on a spot in front of and behind the Nova.
  • Shoots red arrows into the air. On each side of the Nova, it will open a pentacle and rain more red arrows.
  • Blood Arrows cannot be blocked.
Burst Shot
(Grade 3) Nova’s 3rd grade attack. A critical skill that enables the Nova to fire multiple arrows at a high speed to inflict a large amount of damage to a target and then fire a powerful burst of arrows to finish off her enemies.
  • Shoots many "Nova arrows" to the target, and 5 Charged Shots that explode on contact
  • Attack is similar to Harpy Hunting & Flame Arrow combined.
  • Basic arrows can be blocked, but the Charged Shot cannot.
