Castle Siege Role

Dark Lord's Castle Siege Duties:

  • Lead the charge - Use Dark Horse for mobility
  • Buff the frontline - Keep Firescream and Critical Damage buff active
  • Earthshake for control - Stun enemy groups at choke points
  • Coordinate attacks - Dark Lords are natural party leaders
  • Protect key targets - Stay with your guild's main damage dealers
Pro Tip: Dark Lords have a special party synergy with Summoners and Rage Fighters. When all three classes party together, they receive bonus EXP. This makes DL + Summoner + RF the ultimate leveling trio!
