Job Change

First, find MooHyun In Payon[215 102]. He will tell the player to collect the following items:

  • 1 Flame Heart
  • 1 Mystic Frozen
  • 1 Rough Wind
  • 1 Great Nature

Once finding them all, proceed to Comodo. There is a ladder around the mountain in the middle of the map (base of the ladder can be found at 159, 180) that leads to the top of it. At the top, find the NPC "Man" [comodo 172 231]. Once giving him the items, he will warp the player to a map called "The Sun, the Moon, and The Stars" [job_star 29 32]. Speak with Gladiator of the Sun, who will then warp the player to the he Gladiator of the Moon [job_star 95 33]. Speak with her and prepare to be warped again, this time to the Gladiator of the Stars [job_star 161 33]. She requires the following items:

  • 1 Star Crumb
  • 1 Star Dust

"Man" will warp the player back for free. The player must return to Gladiator of the Stars to have their job changed to TaeKwon Master.

About the Class

TaeKwon Master is a class for characters who have chosen TaeKwon Kid as their first profession and wish to continue in the ways of the TaeKwon. One of the most notable benefits that a TaeKwon Master has over a TaeKwon Kid is the ability to wield books to help deal more damage physically. TaeKwon Master is an unusual class in that the majority of their skills are bound to the celestial bodies of the Sun (Solar), Moon (Lunar) and Stars (Stellar), and are very restricted in their use. These skills have three different restrictions in which they can be used, and are as follows:

  • Certain skills can only be used on a day of their respective celestial body
  • Some skills can only be used on maps that are designated as a place of a celestial body
  • Other skills can only be used against enemies that are aligned as an enemy of a celestial body

The first restriction is unlike the latter two in that a TaeKwon master cannot change what day is representative of a celestial body; these days are already set. The setting for these celestial days is told in the mantra as follows:

The Sun shines brightest on even days. The Moon shines brightest on odd days. And the Stars shine without fail on every 5th day. The second and third restriction can be set personally for each individual TaeKwon Master via their respective skills: Solar, Lunar and Stellar Perception and Solar, Lunar and Stellar Opposition.

However, there are also skills that are also bound by more than one restriction.

If a TaeKwon Master ever finds the TaeKwon Master skill tree too confusing, a TaeKwon Master can always invest more skill points into the TaeKwon Kid skills, or observe the skills that are not restricted by the celestial bodies.

Solar, Lunar, and Stellar Angel

Once a TaeKwon Master selects a map to be aligned with one of the stellar bodies, the TaeKwon Master cannot change the place of designation, unless the TaeKwon Master is lucky enough to be blessed with the Solar, Lunar and Stellar Angel, in which case the Angel will wipe the TaeKwon Master's previous designation and allow the TaeKwon Master to redesignate enemies and maps of celestial bodies.

It is said the angel is most likely to appear when the Taekwon Master is in the 'state of happiness.' This state can be achieved through the Enjoyable Rest skill; sit next to a fellow Taekwon-class character and use the /doridori emote repeatedly. The skill casts at random and will be cast on both players at the same time.

Solar, Lunar, and Stellar Miracle

As the Taekwon Master wanders the land and gazes at the sky, a blessing unlike any other may be endowed upon him. Solar, Lunar, and Stellar Miracle will grant the Taekwon Master the ability to use all Solar, Lunar, and Stellar-aligned skills on any map on any day of the week. The moon will eclipse the sun and the stars will shine brightly, making the world around the Taekwon Master go dark (the effect is not unlike the darkness caused by a Soul Link). This means offensive and supporting skills are stacked as well. The effect is said to last for one full hour and disappears if the player logs off or switches maps.

  • AGI: 1
  • VIT: 1-40
  • INT: 1-40
  • DEX: 50-70
  • LUK: 50-70

The MVP build aims for little to no VIT and INT to maximize damage output with SLS Heat.

  • AGI: 70-90 base
  • VIT: 1-50 base
  • INT: 1-12 base
  • DEX: 50-70 total w/ buffs
  • LUK: 1-20 base

The AGI build is a DPS build that uses speed, TK Kid kicks, Shadow, Stellar Protection, and SLS Wrath to dispatch monsters quickly. SLS Heat will help to push mobs back so flee isn't reduced.

PvP/WoE

  • STR: 80-99
  • AGI: 40-60
  • VIT: 50-80
  • INT: 1
  • DEX: 40-60
  • LUK: 1-40

At WoE, TaeKwon Masters are primarily a meele locker. Heel Drop Kick, Flying Side Kick and SLS Shadow are some of the skills that help this function. Furthermore, in the selected maps, TKMs can drain SP from enemies very quickly, thanks to Heats. Also, Taekwon Masters are very competent Emperium Breakers, with SLS Union.
