Wondering where the card goes headgear or weapon?

[Danger]

Headgear

Q1> Would the Dragonist Armor eventually becomes a set like with a Cloak, Boots, and Helm?

Q2> Will classes other than Snipers, Priests, and Clowns be useful in these new raids?

Sorry for these questions, I'm not really familiar with how this Order of the Dragon works...

Great update you got here, I'm looking forward on getting my grasps on this.

[kyoshiro029]

ono i need to start raiding again..... =3=

[TheScientist]

Great update!! I've been waiting for this Order of the dragon for a while now :)) :th_e2:

Just one thing I'd like to say regarding the Combat Knife. With the nerf, it would be better to use Frigg + Laughing poo poo than Refined deviling + Fknight shield because the only reason people use refined deviling is because it stacks with combat knife. I personally don't use redux anymore but that's what I used when I was just starting. Redux build is a great for newbies so they can join WoE and other events. Without the combat knife, friggs shield would be essential for redux build and that would be a bit expensive for the newbies. So please reconsider this :)

P.S. PK is activated again at go 15, was this on purpose? XD

[Conner]

what would this Infernal Dragonist Armor would do with just taekwons? because taekwons and starglad/taekwon master are two different jobs.

and PS how much time do we have or does the BlackWitch Raid have?

Q2: Most likely.

There is just 1 for Taekwon as of right now. The raid gives you 1 hour to complete it.

None of those above should stack with the combat knife now. :) And yes you are correct. Combat Knife only stacks with Refined Deviling Hat and we now removed it.

Atk +2%
[Thief Class]
For each 2 refine, Atk +1%, STR +2 Max HP -1%
Card effect nullifies when more than 3 cards is used.

Q1. Given that my headgear is +10 and I happen to get 1 Bijou card, would that sum up to Atk+5%, STR+10, Max HP -5% just from bonus or is it only applicable to the Atk bonus? And regarding the Amadeus card, is it also for the headgear?

Q2. Regarding the Infamous Dragonist armor, when you refer to Dragon's Fury would this be the champ active skill namely Fury? And once this skill is cast, I am given the class specific buff? And is the buff duration from the armor active as long as I have the Dragon's Fury buff?

Q1: You should get [Atk+ 2%] + [Atk+ 5%] + [sTR + 10] + [Max HP -5%] with your +10 head gear.

Q2: Nope. This is a different one. You get Dragon's Fury when you finish the raids. There are different Dragon Armors per job. If you have Dragon's Fury enabled, you will get + of its effects.

Dragon's Fury is something you enable by talking to the Dragon Fury NPC in the Dragon Temple. Dragon's Fury allows you to gain fame points when you kill other Dragonists (with Dragon's Fury enabled), but if you die with it, then you lose fame points. When you have no fame points left, you will lose your status as a Forsaken Knight, and need to re-do the Knight quest - so it can be a bit of a gamble. You can disable or enable it by talking to the NPC at any time, though. The NPC explains how the system works as well. :)

Fame points are what allow you to rank up in the Order of the Dragon. You can get them through Dragon's Fury, but also by doing the raids in the Dragon Temple along with the monster hunter missions.

Q1: Just as I thought. So obviously if I have 2, which would be the max number of those cards to have, the bonus is doubled. Thanks!

Q2: Follow up, Is there like a guide or walkthrough for this quest with coords and stuff?

Q3: Sorry, not that familiar with the Order of the Dragon quest but is Dragon's Fury a permanent buff as long as I don't have it toggled off from the NPC or it can be removed if I get dispelled or if I die? And do I need to complete those fame points thing just to achieve all of those?

Edited February 17, 2016 by qperteplex

[Yatogami]

Okay so you can get Fame points through raids as well?
