The Lore You Know: Zealot

February is the month of love, so why not shine a light on our more fanatical of Goddess-lovers, the Zealots.    For those of you who are not as familiar with this Cleric-tree class, our Zealots do not call upon the power of a specific Goddess but instead sacrifice their life energy and similar forces to invoke a different type of power to use in battle. There are also rumors that they tortured and assassinated demons during their search for the missing Goddesses. But in regards to this, how does our MMORPG version of the Zealots differ from that of history?  First, let’s break down the etymology of the word "zealot". Zealot comes from the Greek word, zelotes, which means, “one who is a zealous follower.” Zealot is also the common translation of the Hebrew word, kanna’im, which means “one who is zealous on behalf of God.” In this historical context, this term was used to characterize members of a 1st century Jewish sect who fought against the Roman rule in Palestine. The more extreme members of this group participated in acts of terrorism and assassination in order to fight against the pagan Romans. When discussing this sect, the word zealot is usually capitalized.  The Zealots were adamantly opposed to the pagan Romans that ruled over them. And their views were so extreme that they also opposed any idea of peace between the two political bodies. As Zealots believed they were the defenders and true devotees of the law of God, some Zealots even carried daggers beneath their cloaks to stab anyone they believed were committing a sacrilegious act or who were being too friendly to Rome.  A lot of our knowledge about the Zealots during the 1st century comes from the historian and scholar Josephus (37-100AD) who wrote influential works on Jewish history and the political climate of the time. However, Josephus labeled the Zealots as dangerous fanatics and pointed them out as a possible reason why the Romans destroyed the city of Jerusalem.  With all of this in mind, it is also important to state that although Jewish Zealots are seemingly the more popular mention, there are zealots in other areas of history as well. The Zealots seen in TOS are not a reflection of the Zealots from the 1st century but more of an interpretation of the word’s core definition “one who is a zealous follower.”  Our Zealots express themselves through various skills that reflect the actions of a zealous follower. Skills that involve blind fate, fanaticism, and immolation. Therefore, as you search for the Revelations of the Goddess, have you also given thought to devoting yourself as their follower and becoming a Zealot yourself?   References  Poole, G. 2017.

The Lore you Know: Schwarze Reiter

  Schwarze Reiters were a German Cavalry unit from the 16th Century. They were armed with a Wheellock pistol and a Sword and wore a Kettle Hat (Eisen Huet) or a Burgonet. Their name, "Schwarz" ( which means "black" in German), originated from the black armor that they wore. Their armor was black because they made it using low quality steel in order to cut down the price.      During battle, Schwarze Reiters would wield two weapons at the same time: the Sword and the Pistol. This was because, in this era, armies were attempting to integrate gunpowder weapons into cavalry tactics. For example, the riders would first advance towards the target in rank formations. As each rank came into range of their target, the riders would turn their mounts slightly to one side, fire one pistol, then turn slightly to the other side to fire another. They would then retire towards the back of the formation to reload and repeat again. This tactic was called “Caracole.” Caracole is also known in Dressage as a turning maneuver. but in Tree of Savior, Caracole is a skill used to immediately disengage from the enemy.     Commanders expected Reiters to engage enemies with both firearms and swords. While riding a horse they would shoot a pistol at enemy ranks with the hope that the enemy line would collapse.     However, Henry IV and Gustavus Adolphus preferred to employ Reiters and Heavy Cavalry in a more aggressive manner, ordering them to press the charge and fire pistols at point-blank range or to use their swords instead. In Tree of Savior, Schwarze Reiter wields both the Crossbow and the Pistol. But our Schwarze Reiters tend to keep their distance from the enemy.

Adventure Journal to be Revised

Greetings, Saviors! We would like to follow up on a notice made earlier this year regarding a few major revisions we have planned for Adventure Journal contents. The following are the main changes we are working to bring to the game after the development process is complete. 1) Data registered in the Adventure Journal will be applied on a per-team basis, instead of the current character-bound configuration. - This means you will have a single Adventure Journal shared with all the characters of your team, and the contents you play with each character will all contribute to your team’s common Adventure Journal. 2) All Adventure Journal compensation-related content will be revised. - The Adventure Journal will be divided into resetting content and permanent (non-resetting) content. - Resetting content will reset once every month, with rewards attributed according to the monthly ranking. - Permanent content will reward the player with Soul Crystals, Attribute Points, Skill and Stat Reset Potions, Rank Reset Vouchers and other items whenever a certain achievement is reached. 3) With the exception of map exploration info, all data currently registered in Adventure Journals will be deleted. 4) Wings of Vaivora rewards related to map exploration will remain the same. Combat (monster hunting) rewards, however, will no longer be provided. - Once these changes are applied, the option to receive combat rewards will disappear, so you may want to claim any rewards you have left before then.   The updates mentioned in this announcement are not yet ready to be implemented, meaning they can be modified or expanded as deemed necessary. We will make sure to keep you updated on the progress of any additional Adventure Journal changes through our News page.
