I'm sorry but I am very confused how to use this character.

 

I don't understand what they mean by stages or stances.

Can you guys, as they say, "explain it like I'm five," because I just tried her and she was equipped with a Fade Step (forget the unique name for her ability) and Barrage.

 

But they have different effects (sometimes frost, electricity, fire) and I'm not sure what I did to trigger each effect. :wacko:

If you cast a spell, you cast the first stage, or the opener. If you cast a spell again, you cast the second stage, or the flow. If you cast again, you cast the third stage, or the finisher. You can mix the spells you cast, but the stage you're on will always be constant. 

 

Say for example you cast her first ability, Barrage. It'll be the Opener so you'll fire off 12 ice projectiles, and after you are done you'll be in the second stage Flow. From there you can cast barrage again to shoot 6 fire projectiles, or her second ability, Asaara's Leap for the flow stage, where you leap backwards for electricity. From there you'll be in Finishing stage, and again can cast the spells for their stated finishing effects.

 

Note that the stages all have a time limit, which if you do not cast a spell in the time, will revert you back to opening stage. Sorry if I wasn't clear, because I'm awful at explaining things.

There a three "stances".

 

 

Opening, flow, and finishing (in that order).  When you cast 1 ability it uses the opening.  If you cast another shortly after it uses flow, and if you proceed again it will use finishing.  

 

Every ability of hers has three different effects, depending on what stance you use the ability on.  Look at the tool-tip and you will see what effects correlate to what stance.  

 

When her hands arent glowing, she will use opening.  When they are yellow, she will use the flow effect.  When they are red she will use finishing.  You can alternatively look at your mana bar.  If at 0, you will use opening.  50 means flow, and 100 means finishing.

All abilities have 3 stages

 

Stage 1 (plain hands)

Stage 2 (yellow hands)

Stage 3 (red hands)

 

When you use abilities in sequence you trigger different stages of the attacks so you can mix and match powers. Depending on when you activate your abilities you'll activate different the different stages

 

Now I'm going to go more in depth

 

So you have your "fade step" ability and that has 3 stages:

Stage 1: Fade Step (ice)

Stage 2: Electric Slide (lightning)

Stage 3: Fire smash

 

You also have barrage and that has 3 stages:

Stage 1: Ice volley

Stage 2: Fire volley

Stage 3: lightning volley

 

 

If you use an ability 3 times you will go through each stage in sequence. You can mix it up to get different patterns

Stage 1: Ice Volley

Stage 2: Electric Slide

Stage 3: Lightning volley

 

With 4 ability each abiltiy has 3 stages meaning she goes into battle with 12 abilities.

As far as I can tell, the delay before resetting to "Opener" is 5 seconds. Can someLukeone confirm?

Try not to die between 10 second casting animation. Basically that's it.

Your explanation was great.  Any sense on the time limit?  I did not realize the time limit and could not figure out why I seemed to be reverting to Opening.  This would certainly explain it.

Keep a eye on your mana bar, it has 3 stages empty, half full, full for each stage. also she never runs out mana and there is no cooldown, so equip a amulet such as constitution/magic/etc.

I noticed that if you don't use a spell every 6 seconds or so it will reset itself. Getting smacked around and knocked over can also reset your stance.

Look through the skill trees there are two passives toward the bottom that helps against being knocked out of stance and taking damaging during casting

After trying this class one time last night I approve, fun to play.  Played with some quite good players who were playing the horny girl and they were just wrecking things.  My poor Lego and his stubby little legs could not catch up to the action and had to kill left overs.

 

I wonder if they have expanded their region locks at all?  The reason I ask is after a fair bit of time with minor to no lag I had about 4 games in a row with major lag.

Also, you can cancel the third spell by using assara's leap's third ability instead. So if your casting the third attack of gatlok blast(or whatever) and an enemy is attacking you just use leap to get away.
