(Added warmth skills. Added more details and clarifications to the miracle buff. The miracle buff stays as long as you stay in the map, even when logging out and in, and the timer stops. BUT IF YOU LEAVE, THE BUFF IS GONE!) |

| DISCLAIMER | This guide is made by a Hyper Novice main who loves playing Sky Emperor. |

| Sky Emperor | |
|---|---|
| Job base: | Taekwon Kid |
| Written By: | Rakugaki |
Overview
The Sky Emperor (SE for short) is a Melee DPS class that aligns to the Sun, Moon, and/or Stars, each dealing damage in unique ways. In addition to changing their attack element via
Mild Wind, they have some rather unusual skills, like making use of the real world's date, marking maps, putting certain monsters on a wanted list, floating in mid-air, performing "miracles", going blind, gaining weight (limit), ganging up with other SEs and SAs (Soul Ascetic) and shaking their heads to recover HP and SP, doing sick moves with Inquisitors, and more!
Note that I AM NOT A SKY EMPEROR MAIN, and it's a sad to see no Sky Emperor guides around here. So I made one.
Builds
Currently, there are two viable builds - CRITical Sun Build, and VCT (Variable Cast Time) Moon Build.
CRIT Sun
The CRIT Sun build quickly disposes of enemies by harnessing the power of the Sun (CRITs) to further augment one's power. Sun skills have no FCT and VCT, but they have a short ACD, are targeted skills, and require CRIT for full power. Set the Sun skills to smartcast turbo to make things a little easier. Turbo setup guide here.
Stats and Traits
| Stat | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| STR | 100+ | Main stat. Increases damage. |
| AGI | 80+ | Mainly for ASPD, needed for spamming |
| VIT | 80+ | 100 Total VIT is required for Poison and Stun Immunity. |
| INT | 80+ | 100 Total INT is required for Silence and Blind Immunity. |
| DEX | 1+ | Increase this for HIT Rate at earlier levels. If you have enough CRIT, then this is leftover. |
| LUK | 100+ | Increases CRIT Rate by 1 for every 3 point. 100 Total LUK is needed for Curse Immunity. |
| Trait | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| POW | 110 | Main Trait. Max it out. |
| STA | 0+ | Optional Trait. Invest some points here if more RES is needed. |
| WIS | 0+ | Optional Trait. Invest some points here if more MRES is needed. |
| SPL | 0 | Unnecessary. Sky Emperors don't read books. They use them to kick their enemies to death, not for academic study or reading various spells to conjure anything... |
| CON | 72 | Further increases damage while marginally increasing survivability via increased FLEE. |
| CRT | 110 | Second most important trait, mainly for raising C.RATE for increased CRIT damage. |

VCT Moon
The moon build is about making quick and easy work on eliminating foes through the sheer power of spinning kicks. ALT+P, hold 3, spin2win something free (I cringe at this REEEEEEEE). While the skills have no ACD and are self-cast, it has FCT and VCT. Both have to be reduced to a minimum in order to spam kicks effectively.

Stats and Traits
| Stat | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| STR | 120+ | Main stat. Increases damage. |
| AGI | 80+ | Mainly for ASPD, needed for spamming |
| VIT | 80+ | 100 Total VIT is required for Poison and Stun Immunity. |
| INT | 80+ | 100 Total INT is required for Silence and Blind Immunity. |
| DEX | 1+ | Increase this for HIT Rate at earlier levels. If you have close to or 100% VCT reduction, then put leftover points here, unless you needed more HIT. |
| LUK | 80+ | 100 Total LUK is needed for Curse Immunity. |
| Trait | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| POW | 110 | Main Trait. Max it out. |
| STA | 0-72 | Adjust STA or WIS depending on which form of damage needs more reduction. |
| WIS | 0-72 | Adjust STA or WIS depending on which form of damage needs more reduction. |
| SPL | 0 | Unnecessary. Sky Emperors don't read books. They use them to kick their enemies to death, not for academic study or reading various spells to conjure anything... |
| CON | 110 | Further increases damage while marginally increasing survivability via increased FLEE. |
| CRT | 0 | Not needed for this build, because the Moon doesn't CRIT. |
