TaeKwon

Overview

TaeKwons are practitioners of the art of Taekwon-Do. They forego the use of weapons and instead specialize in various kicks. In heRO, TaeKwon specializes in being relatively easy to gear since they forego weapons and weapon cards, which may be expensive. They rely on having a strong base HP to outlast the opponent in combat while having access to single target and small AoE melee attacks while protecting the backline in a party with Flying Side Kick to get monsters' attention. Access to all elemental attacks makes them formidable, especially in dungeons with various elements. Upon reaching base level 90 or higher, they gain strength by completing Taekwon Mission to gain points. The more points you have, the more power you gain. This applies even if you are not the server's top 10 ranking TaeKwon player. Those with the top 10 points on the server enjoy even further additional bonuses.

In heRO, Taekwon's ASPD is boosted to attack faster than any other class when they are unarmed. Compared to the official game, TaeKwons in heRO has a Base Time Between Attacks (BTAB) of 0.7 instead of 0.8.

Taekwon Mission Point Bonuses

Points	Bonuses
10	Unarmed attacks gain 10 additional bonus damage (after the final damage calculation of offensive skills but before the elemental modifier)
15	Unarmed attacks gain 5 additional bonus damage for a total of 15 damage (after the final damage calculation of offensive skills but before the elemental modifier)
25	Able to use all of the TaeKwon skills as if you have maximum skill points on every skill
50	Can perform an infinite combo of all kicks - Whirlwind Kick, Axe Kick, Round Kick, Counter Kick - but they must prepare the stance of at least one of said kicks and spam the hotkeys when it triggers. Also, the kicks must be alternated; performing the same kick twice in a row ends the spam.
