Stance Swapping & Dual Meter

Stance Swapping & Dual Meter

The Glaivier has two distinct skill sets which can be swapped between Focus and Flurry with each stance and skill set represented by one of her two weapons. The shorter spear is used to unleash a furious barrage in the Focus stance, while the longer glaive harnesses the Flurry stance for gracefully lethal strikes and sweeping attacks.

While certain builds may focus your attention onto one of these weapons, an effective Glaivier can maximize their potential by creating balance between the two stances, building up energy in one stance which grants an impactful stat-boost when swapping to the other.

While you can press [Z] at any time to swap weapons and change between the Focus and Flurry stances, the Glaivier’s specialty is her “Dual Meter”. Over time, and as you hit enemies with skills, your Dual Meter will charge, filling up three segments.

When you swap, the meter energy you’ve accumulated will be used, granting increasingly powerful boosts corresponding to the meter level that you’ve reached. These bonuses are based on the stance you’re swapping to.

Swapping from Flurry to Focus:

  • Dual Meter level 1 grants a 5% Move Speed bonus
  • Dual Meter level 2 grants a 10% Move Speed and 10% Damage bonus
  • Dual Meter level 3 grants a 15% Move Speed, 10% Damage, and 25% Crit Damage bonus

Swapping from Focus to Flurry:

  • Dual Meter level 1 grants a 5% Attack Speed bonus
  • Dual Meter level 2 grants a 10% Attack Speed and 10% Damage bonus
  • Dual Meter level 3 grants a 15% Attack Speed, 10% Damage, and 25% Crit Damage bonus

Engravings

Engravings

Like all Advanced Classes in Lost Ark, the Glaivier will have two class-specific Engravings, each based around a different playstyle.

Pinnacle

Continuing and enhancing the stance swapping nature of the Glaivier, the Pinnacle Engraving replaces the Dual Meter Stage 3 effect, granting increasingly powerful bonuses as you progress through the three levels of Engravings.

Control

Not a fan of stance swapping, but still want to play the Glaivier? This is the Engraving for you. Control disables the Focus stance, but increases the damage of Flurry skills by 18% at level 1, 27% at level 2, and 36% at level 3. While you’ll have access to fewer skills, and no swapping for bonuses, this damage increase will help you pack a punch.

Feiton Powerpass

Final tip – excited to play the Glaivier? Give it a head start with the new Powerpass!

In the April Update, a Feiton Powerpass will be granted to all players’ accounts to accompany the release of the Glaivier. The Feiton Powerpass will function like the Vern Powerpasses available to players in the launch version of Lost Ark— once you’ve completed the storyline through that continent, you’ll be able to use it to bring an alternate character to that point in the game.

If you’ve completed Feiton already, you’ll be able to use the Powerpass on your new Glaivier right away (or another character, if this lethal Martial Artist isn’t your cup of tea). If you haven’t made it to Feiton yet, but are getting close on your main character, it might be worth pushing through so you don’t have to start from scratch on your new Glaivier unless you’d like to experience the main storyline again!
